- April 15 was over a week ago.
- Whew.
- I skipped the annual 4/15 party and drove straight back to my bed in WI.
- Pretty much did not get out of said bed until Sunday.
- Late Sunday.
- Saturday was the first day I managed to stay awake all day, hence, the getting up on Sunday.
- Feeling good now.
- Except for the piles of snow that surround the house.
- I think spring may have taken a pass on us this year.
- Smokey reminds me that there was a blizzard on April 22, 1974. He remembers it because he was snowed in at a friend's apartment, and I gave him hell the next morning for not coming home the night before.
- Apparently I give him hell so seldom that when I do, he remembers it for 39 years.
- Such is the secret of a happy marriage.
- Hoping that we have seen the last and final blizzard of winter, 2012-13.
- That would have been Monday night, when I was driving home from a meeting 20+ miles away from home.
- 40mph all the way home, except when I slowed down because 40mph felt way too fast.
- Very little knitting took place during tax season.
- What did occur happened at Knit Night Orphans, who meet every Friday night at a Starbucks in St Paul.
- That little gathering is the high point of my week during tax season.
- This coming weekend is Yarnover!
- There is a dinner Friday night with all the instructors; keynote speaker is... the Yarn Harlot.
- I shall be there with my handknit socks and shawl, happily hobnobbing with other knitters and knitgroupies.
- I don't remember which two classes I signed up for on Saturday.
- Must look that up.
- Somewhere.
- Remember that hip surgery I was gonna have in December January April?
- Surgeon rescheduled it for May 6.
- The good thing is that that means I won't be limping around Yarnover completely ibuprofen-less.
- Have to lay off the ibuprofen for 7-10 days before surgery.
- Bad thing is another week of limping and pain.
- Could be worse.
- No need to remind y'all how; you have watched the news in the past week, too.
- Time to get back to work.
