But I'm determined to enjoy this time off. In a perfect world, this time off would include:
- Knitting! I want to complete this hat that I started earlier this week,
- and make some progress on this simple rolled cuff sweater I started several years ago. I added the neck one night while watching a movie at the drive-in movies, and was dismayed to learn in the light of the following morning that I had picked up the stitches wrong, creating an unwanted ridge. My plan this weekend is to take the neck off and put it back on correctly.
- Reading! I have many unread books waiting in the wings, but I've selected Unraveled by Maggie Sefton and Raven Threads by K.D. McCrite as quick and easy reads for the weekend.
- Quilting! It's time to baste my next hand quilting project. And my fabric order from Missouri Star Quilt Company arrived today (man, they are FAST!) so I plan to catch up on the blocks for my Temperature Quilt.
- And more quilting! I'd like to get 20 of the 50 blocks done on my On Ringo Lake quilt; I currently have 5 done, so 15 to go.
In between times, I'll be going to a couple of my son's basketball games and hosting a Super Bowl viewing party. I'll let you know on Monday how well I did achieving my weekend goals.

I've read both of those books. I'm on the 10th of the Annies quilting series (Raven book). I hope to have it finished tonight. Hope you feel better soon, and don't come down with that nasty flu.
Sounds like very ambitious plans for the weekend! Have fun watching the game and knitting and quilting...
And reading and cheering on your boys...
