Mmmmm....wool......

I have this bad habit of getting into things late at night and not being able to put them down. I have on many occasion been too close to finishing a book and stayed up until 5 or 6 in the morning to finish. I do this with video games...just one more thing before I shut it off, then next thing i know it is 11 PM and I am so tired when the alarm goes off at 5 I can hardly function. Well last night I had to make myself stop knitting. I finished the bottom edge of the Fog sweater. I normally hate the back and forth of ribbing, but last night it was almost hypnotic. It wasn't 11 when I went to bed though. I put it down and took the dog out just before 9. I think that it helped that my husband, who was laying beside me, had been asleep since just before 8. I was tired anyway and I was finally just done for the night. Of course I can't wait to go to the yarn shop tonight and knit. I have a goal of having this thing done by the end of September. I know big goal for a big sweater and slow knitter, but I am determined. It took so long to knit that stupid scarf for him last year that it was warm before he got to wear it. Of course I despise knitting scarves....... Anyway, I want to get this done and a sweater for my mom done by Christmas. A nice little argyle. She is smaller though so maybe it will go faster. : )
