so excited. my new sock blockers came in the mail. i have yet to block any of the few things i've knitted, but now i cam block my socks off. ha!

busy day going through my to dos, including returning my friend peter's call, which included a congratulations on your engagement. it's been months since i heard from him, so it was not too surprising to hear his news. life takes hold, and you're moving along, not keeping in touch with your friends as much as you like. i'm at that age when i don't talk to my friends every day, and then bam, one gets married or has a baby.

sadly, i also learned that a friend and professor, jerry, is having to go through chemo. after his surgery, they discovered the cancer was worse than they thought. it's so unfortunate that something like this happens to such a good and caring person. i wish him well.
