Okay, so I admit it, I’m a horrible blogger. :[
So I began this week determined to finish Sonnet. And also, worried frantic about my personal review that my boss told me I was going to have on Monday. And throughout the entire week, I neglected my blog. I’m horrible.
So here’s what’s occurred. . .hopefully in some kind of chronological order. Monday the review didn’t happen, though for almost the entire day at work I was nervous as hell and my stomach was a mess. I came home and started adding items to our cart at PeaPod. I got super excited about the idea of having food in my house again. Rob and I watched History of the World Part I (to which, I was surprisingly unimpressed. . .I usually laugh my ass off during Mel Brooks flicks), and I got a bunch (but not all) done on the second and last sleeve/piece of Sonnet. Then it got late, and it was time for bed. I think on Monday night I also ordered books from Overstock.com. I got The Dark is Rising Sequence for me, The DaVinci Code for Rob, Angels and Demons for me, and Anne Rice’s Sleeping Beauty Trilogy for me, so I can finally read the last book.
Tuesday I also did not have my review. I was less worried about it during the day, I was beginning to believe that though my boss gave one of my coworkers his review, that he might altogether decide I was too new to have one. Tuesday night I don’t remember what I did, but I did knit a bunch, enough so that I was done with the increases, and just had to knit even until it was long enough, and start the shoulder shaping which totals a whopping 12 rows. But once I finished the increases, I was tired, and it was almost bed time, so I just went to bed.
Wednesday while I was at work my boss reminded me that he wanted to have a review with me, and suggested we have it Thursday morning. The nervousness returned, but less brutally. Also while at work, PeaPod delivered our first batch of groceries. :] Rob was amazing and cleaned out the fridge for me before putting all of the food away. <3! Wednesday night I came home and made the dopest Alfredo Sauce evAr, recipe by my mom. I had to call her to make sure I was doing it right, and when I did, she reminded me that my littlest brother’s band concert was Thursday, and told me that he didn’t have any pants to wear for it. I offered to buy him some, and thus, lost all chance of knitting on Wednesday. I did have fun taking my brother shopping though. :] And I brought some of my Blackened Chicken Alfredo over to my mom’s so they could have some and they all loved it.
Thursday I had my review. I had to remind my boss around 11am that he said he was going to do it, because I was tired of worrying about it, I wanted it over with already. I was convinced that he was going to tell me how much I mess up and how I’m worse than the last girl and if I kept it up, they were going to fire me like they did her. I always expect the worst. But the review went well. Apparrently they’re really happy with me, and the effort I’ve put forth so far, and think that I’m a great match for the company. My boss said I have a raw intelligence that he’s glad I use while working, and he’s confident that when he gives me something to do if I don’t know how to do it I’ll figure it out. I’ll probably keep this job for a good long while, even though I HATE waking up so early. 
Thursday night I came home and didn’t even get to eat dinner, though I did knit a few rows even on the last sleeve, before going to my mom’s house to follow them to the concert. It was cute, all in all, and my dad was there, so we caught up. Afterwards I went back to my mom’s house for awhile, and ultimately came home. It was too late to finish the sleeve *and* sew the sweater together, so I just left it for today and started reading Over Sea and Under Stone, the first book of The Dark is Rising Sequence. It’s pretty good, though the writing style is kind of old, (I think the books came out in the 70’s or so) and it’s kind of funny to adapt to the things they took for granted. I’m going to finish the sweater tonight, and I promise, either later on tonight, or tomorrow I’ll have pictures both of the completed sweater, and of my now complete spinning wheel. (Did I mention before that it was missing the threading hook? They sent me a new one, it came today.)
Sorry I suck at blogging!
