Before heading off to the No Kings Day peaceful protest in Sonoma, I decided to jazz up my little poster...red, white and blue pompoms, because today is ALSO Knit in Public Day:
Eldest grandson Thomas graduated from San Francisco State University on Friday at Oracle Park...what a wondrous day. The last of our grandsons to graduate from uni...hooray!

Sigh. I know it's silly, because it will all be worth it when we're finished, but I just can't seem to get into it this time around. We've built two houses before this project, and loved doing them both. I think once we finally get going I'll get my house mojo going again, but for now I feel a bit paralyzed. And...
