I already mentioned the iPod last night. How cool, right? And just as I was about to start whining about not getting my invite to Ravelry yet, it magically appeared in my inbox. If I could only find a few more hours in the day to start plunking images and data in there, I'd be golden.

But the even cooler thing than all of that, is a contract knitting gig I was offered. Its super double secret, in that I can't really talk about it other than mere mention (like this, no details) and I certainly can't post pictures of progress (duh). But this is a really big deal as far as I'm concerned, and I'm incredibly excited to be working on this (and future projects). Vague huh? I will be able to share once the project is done and published, so stay tuned on that.

As for our holiday. It was rainy. Thats it. We didn't do anything special except make spiedies on the grill, in the rain. Richard's friend, Steve, stopped by to hang out for a few hours, but thats it. We were going to go to the state fair grounds for fireworks, but we were fearful of parking the car, getting in there, and trying to make it back to the car in a downpour with the tribe in tow. The kids were a little bummed, but there are more fireworks in the area through the weekend, so hopefully we'll get another chance.

Knitting? I have absolutely nothing to show. I started the baby set for Richard's sister (shes due in August), but admittedly I didn't get very far. I really need to whip this out though, at least while I'm waiting for new Sockapalooza yarn and the super double secret project packages to arrive. This little break is good though, because the next 30 days are going to be filled with time sensitive knitting. Fire up the coffee maker.. lots of late night knitting ahead!
