Five Happy-Making Things

(1)
[taken 2 weeks ago, half a block from my house, no photo editing at all. Seriously.]

(2) My fabulous Beloved has just been sworn in as an attorney. This is the last of the (many) high points along the Law School Highway. I'm so dang proud of him for wanting to make the world better via lawyering, for getting through law school with fantabulous grades (despite the tragedies of varying degree that seemed to occur at the end of every semester, just when it's time to take the final exam), for studying so hard for the bar and passing it on his first try (yay!), and for being a wonderful human being throughout the whole process. Nice power, sweetheart.

(3)
Yes, that's the Malabrigo 100% Merino Butter. Again. I can't even tell you how lucious this stuff is. I'll tell you what it's cast on for later (I have to tell certain family/friends to not read the blog for however many days it is until Christmas, or their birthdays).

(4) Sit-n-Stitch is tomorrow night (or tonight). I'm so happy to have a night with some yarny girls (and guys, in theory), who are perfectly happy to talk about whatever the heck comes up. The state of the schools, sick children, weird family members. Thank you, lovely ladies of the Noble Sit-n-Stitch (or Yarn Liberation Front, as Heather & Anna have suggested).

(5) I think we found Nick's wedding band. It's lovely, exactly what he wants, matches my ring(s)(I don't wear the band yet, obviously), and is in my price range. Dress and His Ring, cross 'em off the list. Woohoo!

I really like the photo of the tree. It's like it's smiling or something.

*sigh*

I have a tree outside just like that! The leaves are so pretty. It's a shame they don't last very long.

Very proud of your husband too!

I so wish I had a car! I would love to visit one of your Sit-n-Stitch meetings!
