Somehow it's already August. I defended my dissertation, completed my Ph.D... how odd.
Things I'm working on: packing, cleaning, getting rid of the bulk of my possessions, spending time with friends and cats
Things I'm watching: for the first time I watched Space Jam, the Last Unicorn, and Pulp Fiction. Also caught Finding Dory and am up to Greg the Babysitter in Steven Universe season 3.
Things I'm reading: Pedagogy of the Oppressed. Ann Carson's Biography of Red.
Things I'm planning still: settling up at this house and settling in at the new house; what to knit
Things I'm knitting: I am just about finished with May's pair of socks. March's socks are still just singular. I ripped out the baby socks I started in June because frankly they were turning out pretty halloweeny and it wasn't what I'd intended. I started a shawl out of sock yarn in July and I've done my 5 hours on it. August's project is yet to begin.
Things I'm spinning: I just finished plying my witch's cauldron gradient with some lovely solid brown. Looks like a minimum of 1000 yards for 9.5 oz which is pretty nice. It's destined for a shawl (might be one of the Quaker ones). The wheel is resting but I will probably try to spin another project or two in the next couple of weeks anyway.
Things I'm worried about: um hmm. making sure I get all the details worked out for the move.
I don't know where summer went but I want it back.
