Well, work was crazy. I had lots of email, back to back meetings and other odd things but it was good and I got things done but my brain turned off at 330pm. So I headed home and was trying to motivate myself to ride when I get home. Well, when I arrived mel was cleaning his bike chain and told me to get changed and get a shake and come out to ride. We did an almost 20 mile route through the bike path to broadway and then home by way of kolb. We had one section where another biker drafted in with mel while I was the wind break. I pedaled hard the whole ride and only had issues when traffic on kolb got busy and it was getting too dark. But we averaged 15.3mph which was nice. I need to find my blinkey and get the head light working on my bike though for any other rides this week. I almost got hit by someone turning from the center lane but I rolled good on my dodge. Course a blinkey and a light would not have helped in that case...which is why I wear hot pink and orange.

Need to work out the timing of heading to the expo and driving the route this week. Hopefully that will come together today. Got home from the ride and changed into comfy clothes and had dinner and watched NCIS and knit. I have more to go on the scarf than I thought...mel wants it really long. I think I need to stop working on it for a while and work a few of the presents that have to be shipped. Plus I have to work on the ornaments for twila...due Dec 1. yeah, I know what I need to be working on thursday through the weekend. We shall see.

well, time to continue some data mining and getting things going on the engineering change front. All good.

I'm making the following scarf for Ivan for xmas - The #7 Hunter Blue.

We've been noticing as I've been working it that the back does not look at all like it does in the picture. I've been not really worried about that but I did figure out why. The pattern calls out the knit in the back loop (kbl) for part of the pattern and the ends have normal knits. I've been kbl'ing the entire time. Ooops.

Oh, and for the yarn screw up of this project...remember to always pick up all of the purls when picking up stitches for a frogging...ooops.

Oops

Much thanks to the [livejournal.com profile] scribe_ari for getting me out of that mess.
