Great news, my mug shelves are back up and secure! It ended up being a five-day ordeal, as it took me two tries to get the right drywall anchors, then I needed to get different screws, and THEN I needed to move all the shelves down an inch and drill new holes because I absolutely made a mess of one of the initial holes and couldn't move that one shelf without moving all of them. But it's done now, and fingers crossed that nothing precarious ever happens to my beautiful mugs ever again.
The last weekend in March there was a model train show in town. I didn't find out about it until that Saturday, but I went over on Sunday and really enjoyed myself! There were some really cool setups, and even a club that ran miniature steam engines! While I don't have room for a train setup in this apartment, I've always wanted one, and I picked up two cars to start my collection.
Knitting wise, I finished my brother's hat (unphotographed), and I also finished a pair of socks (Ravelry page) for myself! Aside from the worsted weight house socks I knit myself for the GAL last year, I haven't finished a pair of socks for myself in over three years. Carpal tunnel surgery has been an absolute game changer, and I'm so pleased that I can handle knitting on 2.75mm needles for longer periods again. I've also been making progress on my green sweater: both sleeves are done and I'm about six inches into the body.
The end of last week I had to go out of town for a conference and Coleslaw got to go to camp. It was a little rainy, but that didn't stop her from climbing all over the playground equipment! I am glad to be back home, though, and as much as Coleslaw loves camp, she's definitely been catching up on cuddle time now that we're both home.
Yay for knitting socks again! And yay for puppy snuggles when you got back home!
ReplyDeleteShe was definitely bummed to get pulled out of the playground when I picked her up, but as soon as we were home I was flat on the couch and she was curled up on my stomach, lol.
