Day 7 - My new phone takes bad pictures
Today, I got a new SMRTphone (Nokia X7). It has an 8MP camera, but instead of a regular flash, it has an exceptionally bright dual LED which has to be something like looking into a twin quasar. I don't normally have a problem with red-eye in my photos, but in this case, the red was the most vibrant color in the photo.
Still getting used to the new toy.

7 Days - Day 7 - back to studying
When you take an online course, IT'S ALL HOMEWORK. Let's just get that straight. The last time I was in school, I rarely did my homework because in most cases, I could pass my tests just by paying attention in class. Now that I don't have a physical class to attend, I have to go through and write down everything to make sure it doesn't slide out of my brain while I'm sleeping. Medical Terminology is my favorite type of class: all vocabulary. Writing out definitions and word parts makes me kind of happy, even though my hand hurts and I can't write properly on the pages where the spiral rings press into my hand. Good thing I probably won't have to reread these notes. It should be enough to remember that I wrote them.

Day 7 - Cablebrain
I started Mom's sweater today, which means that since I woke up, I've been thinking about it, staring at my badly-drawn diagram, copying down panel patterns into my knitting journal so I have all the stitch info on one page, counting stitches, re-counting stitches, staring at a wall, sniffing the yarn, staring at the progress I've made, wondering if the gauge is right, wondering why people can't spell gauge right, or playing Cafe World.

7 Days, Day 7: FOs Spiral Shawl and 7 Days
In knitterly circles, FO = Finished Object. I finished a shawl and another installment of 7 days, so this photo does double duty (I think I already did that for my Day 2, too).
Bye for now, everyone! See you next time!

7 Days, Day 7
Day 7? Already? Really? Well, this is pretty much Day 1 all over again, except now I'm spinning yarn and watching hockey (IIHF World Junior Championships). I had a good time this week, and a Merry Christmas, and hopefully everyone else did, too. Thanks again, Sarah and Lauren, for starting this tradition!
