Life is as it is, isn’t it? We had the inspection on our “new” house this morning, and it’s actually still going on, but I had to come home and meet a roofer to get a bid on a new one, which he’s working on in the driveway right now. In a half hour, I head off to the school to help with a particular art project they’re doing that requires a lot of parent help.

What a day.

When I left the inspection, we had found one major issue, and a bunch of smaller ones. Dangit. And who knows what will be found while I’m gone. Nate and the realtor are still there, fortunately, so I’ll hear all about it. And my stomach is in knots in the meantime.

The baby hat was a big hit at the shower last night. That’s always satisfying, knowing it’s appreciated. Plus, the mom-to-be is a knitter, so she understands the value of a hand made gift. And everyone else there wanted one, whether or not they were done having babies.

I told them all that I’d teach them how to make their own. That never gets a good response, but I try. Oh great Ambassador of Knitting that I am.
