I see that Mary got her shoes, and mine arrived last week as well. The verdict? Mixed results. I don’t love them as much as I love my sandals, so I don’t know that I’ve replaced the sandals or not. The arch in the right shoe hits me just a little bit funny. I do love the service from Zappos.com, though, and can recommend them as a way to buy shoes online. I’m not crazy about buying that way, but it’s so hard for me to find what I want in stores around here that I guess I’ll have to go with.
Yesterday, our HS football team played it’s semi-final game — and WON! It was a great game — and it was indoors…nice…(state football championship games are played in the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls. Wish they could play indoors all the time…)
The Class A Championship game is next Friday at 2. I think they are probably going to close school for the day (which they’ll have to make up later, but I think it’s totally worth it…). This will be the first time for the North Tama Redhawks to actually PLAY in the championship game.
I don’t really have anything creative to report on (though I did work on my sweater for awhile last night and found a much better way to do my Make 1 Increases (what I was doing was leaving holes, ugh), this new way makes total sense (now that I know about it) and will make me much happier. I’m not ripping out, but I’ll probably use some sewing thread to close up the gaps…).
I think I’ll quit rambling now. Have a lovely day!

I did a lot of walking in them the last couple days and overall I’m pretty happy with mine. I did get a small blister but I think I just need to make sure I wear my thicker socks with them. I do like how they look.
Thanks for pointing the way to the techknitting blog. I love to knit, but I struggle with it, so I value resources like that.
