well, we have finally arrived. The drive wasn't bad at all--miss S and the puppies all slept for most of the drive. The apartment is fine (though small) and now that I have been rescued from the perpetual movie watching by high speed internet and digital cable, my life is significantly better. Usually, I really don't watch this much tv but when there is a sleepy/feeding/fussy baby to deal with, rerurns of project runway look better and better.

the icarus shawl grows slowly but I have a hankering to knit something a little more sweatery. yes, i know, I just moved to georgia, the land of 40 degree winters but I'm figuring I can wear a sweater with no jacket in the winter, right? The only problem is what to knit... I picked up the latest IK and there are a few great ones in there. I really like the cover sweater but the knitters review review of the yarn says its slightly scratchy--so i'm a little wary. I also really like the gatsby girl sweater but I'm worried how my chest will look in it--nursing does some crazy things to your boobs and I don't want to look like, well, a hooker or anything.

I'm looking for something really comfortable and soft... sounds like its time to dig through the review archives for the perfect yarn. I don't have hardly any yarn here with me and mr. fruity has actually encouraged me to get some to start something new....

anyway--i'll post pictures of icarus soon!
