CANADA ROCKS GOLD!!

14 GOLD medals for Canada! How incredible is that?? And how about that hockey game? So close to blowing it, but Crosby came thought at the last moment.

So. Canada is GOLD tonight. Not so here. I'm a DNF. Again. But I can live with that. There is always 2014. I'm a lot like our Men's Hockey Team, slacking off when it mattered most, except they managed to pull through in OT. My OT will begin once the flame goes out and I will have a sweater by which to remember these Olympics.

I did knit yesterday on the way to Halifax and managed to get to the neck cast off stitches at which point I had to start knitting back and forth. What a nightmare. Yes, eventually I gave up because I was tinking back more than making progress. I'll start to figure it out tomorrow. Don't get me wrong, though. I had a fabulous afternoon with my Sunshine, AliP, and our families. She even brought me a present of two balls of the new Nordique and St. Denis Magazine. Lovely! Thanks, Sunshine!

Here is a record of my progress.

Currently, the body of the sweater is a little over 20" long. It's going to be so beeeautiful...
