Garage Door Day

We're getting new garage doors installed today. They're Presidential doors, by which I mean, President Bush bought them for us. Thanks for the check George!! Personally, I would have rather gotten a nice long spa weekend or a pony, but Bob ran to HomeDepot and spent all the monies. Damn.

On the plus side, he'll finally quit griping about the ugly, rotting garage doors we have currently. I've also been led to believe that the insulation on the doors will help keep it slightly more comfortable in there when I'm working out in 70% humidity. Riiight. They're Magical garage doors!

Moving right along, I'm over halfway done on the Henderson State throw I'm making for my co-worker's son. The school colors are red & grey, so I bought some of the prettiest Jiffy yarn and set to work on a basic shell pattern throw. It looks pretty cool, if the yarn wasn't so expensive I'd buy a bunch more to make a throw for the house. As it is this throw is only going to be about 40" X 60", and it's going to take at least 10 skeins. It's going to look so awesome though, I hope he likes it.

Pictures up soon! I'll post up the basic pattern too, it's really easy.
