The good thing about his hat is the perfect size 7 needles. They really are the perfect size to me. Big enough to hold and not too big to manipulate. You don't get the tired eyes and cramped fingers like you get from 2's. And you don't knock over your coffee cup like you would with 13's. And the great thing about a hat is that unlike socks, when you're done, you're done. No second-sock-syndrome.
This afternoon we're goint to see the new Jim Carey Christmas Carol movie. It's time to get into the Christmas spirit and I'm really looking forward to Thanksgiving dinner. My son, daughter and son in law will be here to share the holiday and we are not holding back. I hope to get my grocery list finalized today and get the majority of the stuff this weekend, with those last minute items left for Wednesday. I do hope we can go home early from work that day.
I get to work in a very nice place with very nice people, but I do dislike being seated for 10 hours straight. I leave for work at 7:15 (seated in the car in rush hour traffic), get to work, turn on computer, etc. and work till 5:00, get in my car for another half hour of bumper to bumper, arriving home at 5:35. Ten hours of sitting leaves me ready to stand up for a little while.
Would you like fries with that? (rant ahead)
Last week the camera that I use for blog pictures died the gnarly death. I have since begun to use my husband's camera, which has different knobs and such. Learning curves.
So today I'm trying to upload these few photos when my husband comes into my office and starts plugging things into my computer. He's trying to complete the overhaul that's taken him the better part of a week to finish. You see his studio computer had to be completely re-done, as in start all over. The process meant that my iPod stuff was not accessible until he was done, and I really wanted to get part 2 of the audible book I'm listening to.
I can sympathize because I had a similar thing happen to me at work yesterday. Without the details, I will just say that a mail merge needs a data source that it recognizes and somehow I had changed the data source for all my accounts (almost 200) and didn't know how or what I'd done. I finally figured it all out, but only after I had had one great big panic attack that lasted about 45 minutes. Thank goodness it was my "Friday" and I left looking forward to this weekend and time away from work.
