Vacation to do's

My vacation starts tomorrow at 4:00 pm. Nice. Two weeks away from my desk. My job is a good one, but boy do I need a break. Here’s a list of things, in no particular order, that would be great to work on whilst on vacation. Let’s see if it happens. Any bets?

1. Start working on Lismore. For real. As much as possible.
2. Get the buttons sewn onto Lilou’s coat and mail it. 2 hours.
3. Finish Victoria. Buttons and all. Don’t know what the problem is here. I just don’t want to do it. 1 day.
4. Finish the Nutkin socks. Finally returned from their fitting. 1 evening.
5. Get five squares done for the no-squares blanket. 2 days
6. Put a zipper in Bramble, since a trip to the fabric store for other stuff is necessary. 1 morning/afternoon
7. Get the Kitri’s done, since the pattern is such a pain, and I am sure to forget how some of the things were executed if they wait in a pile for very long. 20 hours
8. Lengthen the foot for the Marie Antoinette socks. Add one pattern repeat to each so they are long enough for the recipient. 1 evening.
9. Wash fleece. 1 day
10. Block the Peacock Tail and Leaf Scarf that was finished last week. 2 hours.

That’s enough. Peter and I will go to a couple of matinees and will probably make a trip to TO for a day. Nothing much really.
