Wow. I don’t think I’ve ever had such a long gap between posts before, aside from when I’ve been on holidays. We’ve been busy. Very, very busy. For three reasons. Firstly, we’re ‘sacking’ our builder, which means we have to finish the last bit of work ourselves. Yep, I’ve been wielding a housebrush or three. Secondly, since we’re nearing moving into the rest of our extension there’s been more shifting of stuff out of storage, then sorting, culling, cleaning and finding a place for here. I swear, we’ve moved more stuff since this began than we would have if we’d just bought a house and done one big move. Thirdly, there’s the meetings and paperwork involved. Urk.

If ever you consider extending or building a house, email me. I’ll tell you the name of our builder so if it turns out you’re considering the same one, you can avoid going through the hell we had to go through.

There hasn’t been much knitting. I’ve been too tired to knit most of the time. So tired sometimes that I just sit and stare at the tv. And the other day I had to finish up three podcasts I’d been interrupted in the middle of, and relisten to those I’d fallen asleep during.

At first I wasn’t bothered about the lack of knitting. I was a bit unenthusiastic – probably because I was too tired to get my head around the wips I have. Now I’m missing it terribly, but still too tired to get my head around my wips. I think I need to start a garter stitch scarf. Just to get a fix.

Hopefully life will settle into a knit-friendly routine soon. All this has gotta end some time.
