what a 3 hour Survivor finale gets you...


... most of a sleeve. The silver merino cardigan is moving along nicely. The heavy brown and blue cardi stayed home this past weekend - too heavy and bulky to travel. I knit the sweater a bit in the car, and at the cottage in between regular cottage stuff, but most of this sleeve was during three hours of Survivor. Can I say how happy I was that J.T. won? He seems like a genuinely nice guy, and I hope he does well by it. He also seems to have a bit of a bromance going with Stephen - who would have guessed that the southern cattle farmer and New York consultant would get along so well. Good on them!
Tonight, after my son's baseball game (more knitting time), I'll do some more work on the sleeve during the two hour Dancing With the Stars finale. That should take care of my reality show fix (since the Amazing Race has already ended). I don't do Idol or Bachelor type shows, so I'm good there. Plus, the weather is improving, so instead of evenings in front of the TV, it's evenings out on the deck with family and friends. Woo Hoo!

And the baseball parents are pretty good about the knitting - less hassles than the soccer parents!

I was happy to see JT win too. I am behind the times, I guess, the term - bromance is new to me.

Parent' hassle you at the kids' sporting events? How rude!
