I AM Victorious!

On fighting the flu that is.....two co-workers went down for the count and its hit my area pretty hard but me just a tad stuffed up. No where near being Typhoid Tif......

Pretty quiet week for me....did get some knitting done on my Travel sock and the Clapotis. While technically I was done with the mid-section of the Clapotis, I decided it should be longer so still knitting the mid-section.....Have plenty of yarn so why not....

Oh I did watch the eclipse on Wed night. Well on and off b/t eating out, errands, and coffee.....

Told ya it was a quiet week....and no pics either although in hindsight I really should've taken one of the moon...

Its all about the food Baby....& making new friends

Social weekend for me....its exhausting. We have monthly potlucks for work (Public Works dept) and admin asst/cat sitter and I decided to have them at the curation bldg once in awhile cause well our bldg is better for such things. So our 'Valentine' edition was at our bldg.
And look at my pretty fruit salad.....


Making a knitting friend--thats right one of the new co-workers is a knitter.....and she and cat sitter are pregnant-month apart!

And yesterday evening I went to a dinner party. Friend/boss and her husband threw this party at another friends house for a different friend (you follow that?) Actually the purpose for them was that they want all their friends to be friends with each other especially since now we all represent three different agencies that take care and make use of the desert. Easier to get things done when you have friend in the other agency.
And I did make a friend....he needed an ear and I was able to provide one. (and why don't they make more guys like him d*** it, the girl he's in love with has this wonderful man that is willing to take care of her forever)
So while no "Mr Rights" for me (there could be a Mr OK.....) I say it was a good evening professionally and personally

And my sweet herbed mixed nuts went over well


And hey look I did get knitting done! My Clapotis is slowly growing--think its half way done now....


My latticed cable sock has another full repeat and its looking good....
Travel sock is growing too (and dopey me--I realized I'm actually getting a pattern then got all excited....)

Alright there is my weekly post for my blog....Think I am going to try to blog once a week....been doing good these past few weeks....
