It's Been Awhile

So, I'm home sick today. I feel all around gross and my back hurts. I thought it might be a good day to catch up.

There hasn't been a whole lot going on in my life. There has, however, been a serious lack of knitting. I haven't knit a stitch in probably 2+ months! It seems like forever, but I just haven't been able to bring myself to do it. I'm not the most prolific knitter to begin with, it's almost to the point of ridiculous at this point.

What have I been doing instead? Nothing. Terrible. Though, on November 8 I did go hiking. Surprisingly I felt better that day than I have in MONTHS. That was the only day I felt that good, but the days have had a general betterness to them.

This was the next installment of our (my friend Dan and I with the dogs) quest to become members of the Appalachian Trail 2000 mile club. The previous hike was a 2-day, and my legs hurt so much the second day, I didn't do the second day. At some point I'll have to make that up.

We did 4.5 miles from car to car. It was mostly flat, there was a decent uphill at the start and the walk to the car was a Steep downhill with LOTS of rocks. I almost fell on my ass a number of times. That was my least favorite spot....I cursed....a lot.

Today's plan is to update Ravelry. Put up pictures of knitting I had previously taken of my progress. Working with knitting pictures is almost like knitting right?

Some hiking eye candy:

If it wasn't for the walking part, those pics are enough to make me want to go!
Missed you - you were silent too long.
