Ravelry anyone?

I'm curious who else I know is a part of Ravelry....? I don't know too many other people who knit, only that there are lots of us out there. My username on there is theladyhat and I'm part of some groups but I know there are tons out there.

Here's some of the most recent stuff I've knitted:
For my sis

slouchy hat

warm socks for my mom














The socks are my second pair and although I love them, they take forever to make. So for now I'm working on smaller things that don't take so long and I get a little more instant gratification.

A Busy Grad Student's Update on Life

I just got an update on JT's most recent blog challenge and unfortunately I missed out in participating (just too busy!) but I did skim some of the blogs, and I plan to go back and read them later. A lot of the tips I saw were about "keep writing" and "blog a lot", which I like and it's true, if you don't keep it up then it feels harder to get back into. I've gotten more comfortable in writing shorter posts just for the sake of getting something up so people don't think I've forgotten about my blog. Listen up though! I'm so close to graduating and I need to stay focused or else it could all crumble apart! I don't think that's very likely but I need to stay focused nonetheless. I had one of the best classes last night though, my once a week 3 hour long class. My professor was in a good mood and just feeling light I guess, he kept making jokes and going way off track from the material. He has good tangents, the ones you like list

Serene Saturday

Image
Well, I've been out and about mostly today(Saturday) which has been a nice change from recent weeks. It must be a testament to how much I haven't been doing though, because I was tired by the time we got back in the afternoon. BUT, it was a good day and I did get some pictures, but I apologize because they were taken on my phone. We were in a rush out the door that I forgot my camera. I was on a walk though, here are some of my pictures. The weather was pretty nice even though it looks dreary. It was overcast but not raining, all in all a good temperature and not too bright of sunshine.  Some of the geese were out but only a few. My conclusion is that some have headed back (or possibly never migrated this winter) from the south, but it seems most have no returned yet. I was at this lake a little bit ago with my boyfriend John, in the fall I think, and the geese were all over the shore. We had brought stale bread to feed to the geese. Needless to say, the geese got pretty c

Countdown to End of Line

It's Wednesday and I have a brief amount of time to write a post. I have a timeline going at home, with countdowns of the days until my next three biggest life events. 3.5 days until comprehensive exam (Part 1) 13 days until comprehensive exam (Part 2) 16 days until my defense for graduation These countdowns are scary and yet comforting, because they remind me exactly how much time I have. The more I know and prepare, the less scary the event will be. 17 days from today, I will have a LARGE drink of the liquor variety, because let's face it, I really will deserve it. Unlike all the other times I have a drink, those are just because I want to chill out or it's the weekend. In case you didn't count which day that first exam is, it's this Saturday. Yup, the Saturday before Easter. What's messed up is that we don't have classes on Friday (Good Friday and all), yet our professor feels he's only available to hold this exam the day between a no-classes day
