I kind of work three jobs. The main and most important one is that of mommy. That one is a bit more than full-time. Occasionally, I go to a paid job, as a clinical social worker; this usually happens on evenings and weekends, but just a couple times a week. The really very reasonable husband seems to think this job should happen more often. You know how those husbands who do most of the ouside-the-house, support the family work, secretly believe they would do a much better job as "mommy"?
Then there is the start a yarn business job. Also a full-time gig, although I realize that I am truly a work-in-progress when it comes to organizing my time. And that is getting better now that the boy-child is in school. This schedule makes Mondays particularly precious, in a take the kids to school, walk the dog, ignore the housework, and knit all day until they come home again kind of way. Now if the husband had not deleted my recording of the Aussie Open Women's Tennis Final, it would have been perfect. But it was close.
Mysteriously, I can't show you pictures of my progress as the project is a design that I am knitting for Deb Stoller's knitting book for men and boys. But I can't wait for you to see it. My dad has been waiting for the original version for two years; he is of the opinion that I don't finish things. While my dad has good reasons for this notion, he is actually mistaken. Best to keep it that way for now. Anyway, here I am with my dad-and I'm wearing a Finished Object!
