Quick Update
Just a quick update. . .
Running is going well (I just finished a 5k i 28:01!)
Reading is going well (I finished my non-fiction for this month and am now in the middle of two books).
School went well (The final was last week and I think I did okay).
Knitting is going okay. I have a baby sweater I need to finish and I just found out that my cousin (whom I am making the sweater
for her baby), had her baby on the 19th! Yikes!! The main part is done, now lets see how fast I can make the sleeves and finish
it up!!

More stuff
Well, I've had a bit more time now to do some knitting and reading and I've been taking advantage of it to the best of
my ability! First, I finished the band to the green shirt I'm making (the same pattern that my friend is doing right now,
too!) and I actually blocked it last night. Then, remembering that my cousin is going to have a baby boy in June, I pulled
out the powder blue yarn I bought a while ago and started the sweater. I was making good progress, until I realized that a
ways back I forgot to increase. So, I had to frog a bunch, cast-on a bit and then work back to where I was before I could
go to sleep! Now I'm sitting home (vacation day from work) working on the sweater while my oldest daughter is finishing the
props we need for our speach tonight. I finished the cards and such, and this is her part. Of course, I took the day off and
I am sitting here in case she needs help and so we can practice with the props before going to school. But so far so good
with her. And, we were able to run this morning and get breakfast before starting. Let's hope tonight goes as well as this
morning has!

Long time since last update. . .
I've been quite busy with work and school and haven't had too much extra time for much. But, things are starting to slow down,
school is almost over, and I'm starting to get back to a bit of knitting and running. I finished a pair of socks for my Mother
for Mother's Day and I've done some work on the band of my sweater. And after next week I'll be working harder on that sweater!
And, I'm working back up my running again as well. I've signed up for a 5k at the end of the month, plan on doing a 10k about
a month later and I'm still looking for that 1/2 marathon to do with someone :-) But, I'm back up to 7.23 miles that I did
today. So I'm feeling pretty good!
