life sucks sometimes

i am getting a sore throat, just before the busiest weekend we've had in a long time.

i tried to fix my sock (see below) last night, the first fix didn't work, unknitting didn't work, ripping a few rows back and trying to catch the stitches again proved frustrating so i ripped the whole thing out and started over. i didn't like the way the colors were pooling anyway, but still. i think i'm out of the running to finish by monday night. but i'm going to give it a try.

i've got so many little projects to do at work that i'm a little stunned. not sure what to do when. and i HATE that. plus i've got post its telling me what i need to do all over the fricking place on my desk.

my sister val arrives on monday and the guest room is a total and complete pit and i don't know when i will get a chance to tidy it up (see begining of this entry).

i think i will have a martini tonight when i get home. purely medicinal, i assure you.
