slowly moving forward

Hello my loves,

I hope the big wide world is treating you well. Usually I am only up at this time to run (well, walk/run. I have an injury that prevents me from doing an all out run). On this morning, however, I am up to take an exam; yes ,you read that right, an exam. I am in the process of applying to a teacher credential/ graduate program. Our little one is supposed to start school next fall, and my love and I have an agreement: while they are home, I am home; once both are in school, I go back to school. Unfortunately, before I can even apply, I have two exams I must pass. So, I will update you quickly on my progress for the last two weeks.

The quilt is now moving along quickly. I have all the rows figured out and have started sewing them together. I hope to have the top done be the end of the week.

 The shawl is also moving along, although not as quickly. My sister's birthday was last Tue. I only have a couple inches of border left, then cast off, and block. I have only just started the second ball. I am going to have more than half left over. Any ideas what to do with it?

Well, it is time to head out to my exam. Wish me luck.

XO
