1. I taught my daughter how to use a hammer and I was the only one who got smashed fingers [Yes, Dad, I know she's choking up on the handle ... she's hammering into cardboard, so I decided it was okay for her to sacrifice leverage for accuracy. Sheesh, you know I know better than that :) ].2. Look how cool the craft turned out (and this isn't even the coolest one, what with the wonky "I'll just freehand a heart" center).

3. The first glass of orange juice after you've been out of it for a couple of weeks.

4. "Okay, Mama, you go get our trash can from the neighbor's yard, and I'll stay inside and make sure you don't get hit by a car and die. Bye!"

5. Liza has taken naps two days in a row. I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop and her to come down with whatever hideous illness she's incubating, but until then, I have lots of time to, um, read blogs and find new knitting projects on Ravelry.

Also, now that some obligation knitting is out of the way (ahem Dad's birthday socks ahem), I've gotten a chance to start on a pair of socks that are turning out really, really well. I hope the intended recipient loves them as much as I do ...
