Marathons

Not the running kind, but marathons of a different sort have been taking place at our house this weekend.

This one - probably the most time sensitive one - is Fred's.



These pictures were taken Sunday afternoon. Things don't look much different today.


These are my marathon.

Unlike Fred I am quite aware of my deadline. There were to be three done for Wednesday.
Right now, there are two.


On this one, I have to finish knitting, tie in ends and block. Totally do-able by Wednesday.

Don't ever let anyone tell you that retirement is not a busy time.

I think I like your marathon better than Fred's.

We've got to get a new dishwasher too. Perhaps Fred can give Jim some tips.

Say it isn't so. I want to have oodles of time when I retire!

Good luck, Fred!

Love the scarves. Wish I could retire and just knit!

A new dishwasher...lucky you!!! Could I borrow Fred? We have the world's oldest, noisiest, and most energy-inefficient dishwasher, but my husband refuses to replace it as long as it's still operational. Better yet...any advice on how to break a dishwasher??? ;-)
