I think I might be almost done.....

Well.....i turned in my soul-sucking project today (about 20 minutes ago) and now I have only bits and pieces, small presentations and emails and things to clean up before school is OVER for me. Over.

Two and a half years of spending MOST of my non-knitting free time, every Sunday, every weeknight and a lot of my waking moments thinking about school.

I know I should be focused on the good parts, the new free time, the accomplishment of going back to school while working and taking care of small children. But I feel....sad! at loose ends! grumpy! This must be why people do graduations and things like that, its a way to stay busy and UP during times of transition. (I am not going to graduation; its 1000 miles away and for me to drag myself and FaveSpouse and the kids would be very expensive. And all for what? I am not a ceremony girl anyway. My wedding had 2 guests; I skipped my undergrad graduation.)

Enough with the pity party. I knew this would happen--school would end with a whimper rather than with a BANG!

I've been knitting; I am working on my new Harry Potter socks and making a few fingerless gloves for gifts. I've reached the yoke on the Tangled Yoke cardigan. I finished some kid and adult socks.

This time next week it will be all over; only thing to do then is wait for my grades and my diploma to arrive in the mail. AND to think about my REWARD YARN!
