tephraWell I haven't updated in a while so here we go.
NaNo: Last Sunday and Monday (the 8th and 9th) I didn't write at all so the whole week has been a slog of trying not to fall any further behind. I had a good day today and finally, finally hit a spot where the words didn't require concentrating until I sweated blood to get the out. I'm still behind but I wrote 3k today and if I can manage that again tomorrow I will be caught up.
Knitting: I've got eight inches done on the vest for my Mom for Christmas. That's about 40% complete since Mom is shorter than I am.
I'm a bit farther along that this now, but I haven't taken a new photo and probably won't until I'm ready to divide for the arm holes in about five inches.
I'm also working on a hat using this pattern but that's a "use up the leftovers" project I might run out of yarn before I finish. If I do I'll just rip it out and think of something else to do with that bit of yarn.
Let's see, what else... Oh, I fnally took a photo of that hat I knit while I was at my parents' place this summer.
I think my weight loss is actually visible in my face and neck, which is very happy inducing.
And I finished the gold dalek for my brother and finally took some photos.
