I'll have to use a recycled photo because my camera hasn't seen the light of day in… many days.  But OMG, I am so excited!!  I'm about mid-way through knitting the border onto the first of the long sides.  I'm able to jam all of those stitches onto my long straight needles, too, which makes me happy (and the knitting go faster).

When I pulled it out to work on the border while watching the game with Mom yesterday, she said how much she loved it… "It makes me happy to look at it."  One of the best compliments ever!

…a post that went POOF!  Not the fault of Typepad, more my stupid home network. So, here we go:

• Packers handily beat the Vikings today in Minnesota!
• I bound off the first border edge of Parcheesi while watching!
• Was watching at my mom's and had a little complaint about a pain and she sent me off to urgent care (actually, she insisted on "taking her baby" to the doctor).
• I have been prescribed an antibiotic to treat an infection.
• This explains the chills and sleepiness that made up half of my weekend.
• I knit and nodded off for several hours last night, catching up on TiVo'd TV, and was in bed at 8… and slept 'til 9.
• I felt pretty good all day today.  So, if that infection clears up, I'm good.
• Parcheesi rocks!

I'm a super sleepyhead today.  It took a while, but I successfully fought off to-the-bone chills in the middle of the night.  I slept 'til after 1:00 this afternoon and then went for coffee (I had juice) with Mom — just needed to get up and out!  Now I'm ready for a nap.  I hope your weekend is a bit more, um, active!
