for those not interested in knitting

Right, so I know if there are still people out there who check this blog, they will be disappointed that my latest post in months is a knitting pattern. Sorry. Here's a real post!

Things are going well here, though work is very scarce since the district went to a 4-day school week. But I'm getting knitting done, I guess.

R is still liking his promotion to Mr. Manager, though he is certainly working more hours now.

We spent Christmas in Seattle, and then went to Cabo with my Mom just after Christmas. It was warm, but it was a very atypical vacation for us- we're not used to the "sit around the pool at the giant resort" kind of trips. We did get to do a bit of snorkeling and a lot of walking though, and took a sunset boat ride. Cabo is crazy, it made me a bit uncomfortable how everyone spoke English and tried to sell you things. That's not the "Mexico" I want to visit. But it was nice to be in warm weather for 10 days, particularly since we came back and had to flee the snowstorms in Seattle, only to arrive home in time for a small typhoon.

Spring is going to be busy though, I'm traveling to visit Vicky in LA later this week (and going to my first ever knitting convention- must not buy ALL THE YARN!), seeing "Wicked" in Portland Easter weekend, and then going on a road trip through the Southwest with my Mom in late April. It'll be fun, though I'll miss R and the dogs.

There is not much exciting news to tell for now, I'll report back after my adventures!
