good and bad

Leaving tomorrow for California-- the same spot my family has gone for the last 15 or so years. I've been saving my "special yarn" for this vacation, and my stash looks bare now without it! It's for the Jacket with ribbed collar from Simple Living. I did a swatch, I washed and dried the swatch, and my gauge is right on with size 6 circs. Hopefully I'll have at least a half a sweater when I return!

Abby is nice and cool now-- she got a haircut. A really bad haircut from PetCo. They cut her like a poodle, ignoring the directions I had written down for them. Her regular groomer was all booked up, and Abby really needed to be shorn before I left. So now she suffers. I'm remembering how she used to be: a little white ball of fluff that was always zooming around the house.
