Lincoln = Distraction

A few days before Abraham Lincoln's birthday (Feb. 12), I was looking through books at the library and came across Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith.  The first night that I picked it up and started reading, I read half of the book in one sitting.  Last night, I finished it and thought that it was thoroughly entertaing without being to gorey.  I'd recommended it.  It kind of markes me want to read a Lincoln biography next...

Since I was spending the last few evenings reading, I haven't gotten a lot of knitting done.  I'm halfway through the leg portion of the Tea Time socks and will probably get back to them tonight.  The Adeline blanket is also coming out of timeout.  Last time I worked on it, I was sitting there, crocheting along when I noticed that the more recent three rounds looked different from the others.  I was right.  I had accidently flipped the blanket after finishing a round and started the new round on the back side.  It's a subtle difference between the two.  Unfortunately (but forunately), I noticed it and couldn't let it go.  Out came the rounds and then they were redone....this was the point at which I picked up a library book. 

Time to get back to the projects now that the book is done.  I feel a case of startitis coming on that I'd like to avoid for a couple of weeks.
