Almost Autumn

cb8531Just a week until it's officially Autumn and it looks like the weather has really switched over from Summer to Autumn; grey, drizzly, fog in the mornings. The temperatures are still fairly high though and it's very humid -- more like what you'd see on the East Coast or in the South of the U.S.
With the weather turning, my son's puppy (big puppy) needs a sweater; he just doesn't have enough of a natural fur coat to handle colder weather. The corgis do just fine, but he says he's freezing. Found the free Bernat dog coat pattern, added a buttonhole where the dog harness' lead snaps onto and am well over half-way done.
Finished the first leg of the legwarmers for my daughter and am finding that legwarmers also suffer a bit from the "Second Sock Syndrome." Haven't touched "Rivulet" in a couple of weeks, but as soon as I get down to only two ongoing projects, I'm sure I'll pick it up again. Still haven't found then half-finished jacket -- sigh.
This time of year, I'm working at least 10 hours every week day and at least one full day on the weekends, so I really don't have the energy to do much more than minimal households chores and some reading to "run away" for a little while. TV & DVDs just aren't the same. Looking forward to mid-October when the workload should ease up a bit.
