Monday, Again

How is it Monday already? I feel like the last couple of weeks have just flown by. I don't know where my weekends go - wait, I work on the weekends. Oh well. It's playoff fever in my world right now. My football team won, and so did my volleyball team. VB plays on Thursday in the state semi-finals, if they win, finals on Saturday. FB plays Friday night. I will be at none of theses events. Because I am a horrible athletic trainer. I chose instead to go on vacation for the weekend. Yeah, just ask my boss. In truth, I am on my way to NJ for Miss Sarah's christening. Otherwise, I'd be at as much as possible.

On to some knitting. I finished the Odessa hat on Friday night, stayed up a little late, but I was so close to being done, I just had to. Here it is.
I can already vouch for the comfort and warmth, I wore it to hockey yesterday, and it was much less scratchy on my forehead than my Columbia hat is.

I progressed on my Steelers sock - have I mentioned that I am not particularly fond of short row heels? I don't know why but one side always has little holes where the decreases are. I could handle it if was even and on both sides, that's fixable, but on one side? I just don't get it.
These will be worked on tonight - Steelers v. Ravens, 8:30. Can't wait.

And I picked up my SotS again. Finished clue 3 and did a few rows of clue 4. Still doesn't look like much.
And, I've taken a vow that I will not cast on for any new projects until Mason's blanket is done. I did a few inches last week, I'm so close to being done with the middle part, and then I just have to do a large crochet border and it's done. I just don't have any motivation to pick it up. Don't know why, so therefore, nothing new until it's done.

P.S. Elizabeth did in fact get the Steelers/Browns tickets for next Sunday. Because that's how my life works.
