I am free! Okay, it’s only until Monday but that’s nearly a week without school and meetings. I’ll ignore the fact that I have a French dialog test the day I get back. For now I will simply focus on the wonderfulness that is fall break. Lots of time to knit and spin (Julie gave me a brief lesson at school today) and just plain relax. I’m sure there’ll be lots of playing of the Wii; I can’t wait to get my father-in-law to try it out. He’s never really played video games before but the Wii is so active and easy to grasp for a beginner so I think he’ll like it.

Speaking of in-laws, they arrive tomorrow so we’re in the last wave of getting everything ready for their visit (hence the list I posted yesterday). Thankfully I get to sleep in a little before we head up to the airport to get them. I’m not quite sure what we’ll do all day but I do know I’m going to try to kidnap Esther and take her to my knitting group tomorrow night. I know she’d really like the ladies and could probably use a break from her husband (plus I really want to show off my finished Clapotis).

Sorry for yet another photo-free post. Hopefully tomorrow or Thursday I’ll have some time to borrow Matt’s camera and take some photos of recent knitting progress (though no photos of Tuscany as one’s for Esther and she’ll be here). I’ve started a new project to keep me busy while they’re here and I’ll explain more about that soon. Let’s just say I drank the Kool-Aid.
