I Like #197

 What a wonderful day yesterday was! My lab members and I crowded around our laptops at work watching the inauguration, the whole thing was wonderful and very moving.  I tend to be susceptible to ceremony in general (weddings, funerals, etc), but I thought it was great.  Constant reminders that we are still in the worst of a pandemic but with hope!  And personally it made me so happy to see VP Kamala Harris sworn in by Justice Sotomayor.  A shining example for all of us and all our kids that women can be in the highest echelons of government.  

I didn't take many pictures this week, mostly just the puppy.  I snuggle with all three of them on the couch almost every night, but my arm isn't long enough to get the four of us into a single selfie.



He unballed a WHOLE ball of yarn in the backyard, through the doggie door, around the chair.  It was attached to my knitting, but luckily didn't hurt the kniting.




I cast on a new pair of socks this week.  I haven't knit socks in a while so it's fun to have these going!


I blogged about several other knitting projects this week, you can see them here and here.




And, although the inauguration is an important and sober and joyful event,  I couldn't help laughing when my student sent me this meme last night.  Definitely resonated....

    I’ve seen lots of Bernie on Facebook too! But didn’t Michelle look fabulous? Seems your puppies are a playful bunch, and you are very forgiving! 😊

    Your shawl is so pretty! Bernie’s mittens have gone viral. All he wanted to do was stay warm. I loved the inauguration and the celebration at night. Inspiring!

    only puppies have rubber bones so they can fall asleep like that. Unfurling a ball of yarn... sorry mama... Bernie cracked me up! I was surprised few people wore hats since it was snowing and cold. Weren't the mall of waving flags beautiful??? I hope this harkens a return to law and order and truth.
