I was recently called cute by one of my employees. Cute, in the way that people think of senior citizens. I’m cute because my son text messaged me and I didn’t know how to reply so I went to the youngest employee in our organization and asked for her expertise. She said “You’re so cute!” I don’t do cute very well. I am a capable woman. Years ago my daughter and I used to have capable woman days to prove our prowess. She is proving her capability by studying astrophysics. She loves knowing stuff others don’t know, particularly her level of math. I suppose I’m really really cute because I’ve figured out how to blog.
I am taking a day off. The past few days were spent wrapping up a big grant application; many hours of intense work. It took $5000 of staff time to produce an application that weighed seven pounds and ultimately killed the photocopier. As we said in Catholic high school, I’m keeping my fingers crossed and saying three Hail Mary’s that it’s a successful one.
Charlotte is done and she’s darn cute even if I do say so myself. I was going to ask Sandy if I get two stars by my name on the knitalong list, but then I discovered someone else had actually knit six Charlottes! The ruffle took six hours! Emma pointed out, that although I thought that Charlotte didn’t measure up even after 32 extra rows, the pattern measurements included the fringe. I feel better.
Thanks to all for your mouse solutions and sympathy. Believe me, I will try every one of your suggestions.
