Oh my, has it been a whole week since I last posted? Nothing like the Yarn Along to pull me away from sick kids and sick visiting family and back to my blog. Boy, that rotavirus is a doozy!
Through all of the sickness, I did not manage to get much knitting done. I finished the last ball of yarn and there my sad little sweater has sat (while the weather warms up!). I worked my way up the neck; I still have a couple more inches on that (which I shall start tonight with my newly scored skein of Rowan Cocoon).
On the reading front, I am (still) about to finish The Good Life. I am baffled at the energy Helen and Scott Nearing must have had. I find it hard to sit down myself, but these two?! I believe Scott Nearing was 87 when he finished building a stone garden wall. Oh~~~
On my lap this week has sat a very content little 20 month old as long as we are reading about or looking at or mimicking anything train. So there you have it...

My 21 month old has been in pretty much the same boat. Teething is doing her in. HUGS!
That's just the way it goes sometimes, isn't it? I, too, have had a very clingy toddler this week. We've read lots of Richard Scarry!
Oh, Sachi! I'm so sorry to hear how sick your family has been! And sick visitors, too...we've done that a few times! Your sweater is really looking great, though, despite little progress!
I have a 23 month old here who is all about books - especially those involving trains and ducks!
Hope you're all better very soon!
Brother. We're coming out a week of illness here. Feels like it never is going to be done. Hope all feel better soon and that you get some more knitting in this week!:)
I'm so glad you scored more yarn - it's such a pretty shade...
