Apr 15: Stitch by stitch

Anya is amazing! She just started knitting about 1 week ago, and she’s already figured out how to make a patterned sock.

She wouldn’t hold it, so I had to take the picture of it with her in the background. Instead of a selfie, it is a socki!

To and from MHS on the bus today. Anya put together some boxes for the archives and shelved some books. I’m working more on chapter 4. It seems that it is working best if I have my general outline (plan) for the chapter, then I write some, and I follow up by outlining what I really wrote. It is cumbersome, but I see that it makes it more cohesive and progress with more logical coherence. My goal is to have this sub-section drafted by early next week for Knut to review. Anya works stitch by stitch and a sock gets made. I work word by work, and hopefully a dissertation will be made. 🙂

I also did some more Hebrew for tomorrow’s meeting of the Maasai Research Group and plan for our trip to Stockholm. We arrive mid-day on Sunday on a direct early afternoon flight from Stavanger, so I have to figure out what is open on Sunday evenings. With some strategy, we could take in the Vasa museum and the ABBA museum. I bounced these off Anya, and she wasn’t too excited. Perhaps she just wants to go shopping!

Anya did invite Oda over to taste some of her American candy from her birthday care package. It was good to have some time with her friend, as the whole class isn’t meeting for school this week with everyone doing a practicum. As you can imagine, Anya gets a bit tired of me. So, I tried to give her some space tonight and work out of sight on my Hebrew.

With blessings,

Beth

  1. Wait, what?! Anya has only been knitting one week and is able to do socks?! I’m on my third scarf and have no idea how to progress to a sock!
    And you should DEFINITELY do the ABBA museum! So jealous, Mama Mia!
