It's Killing Me...

It seems like the blog has been been all about the blanket lately, doesn't it? But here we are again, with block 9 complete

and connected

which I did twice, because I put it in the wrong place the first time. I did not take a picture of that, because I was feeling so defeated at that point...this blanket is trying to kill me!!! (Not really. That was a teeny bit dramatic...and I've moved on to block 10 now.)

Part of the reason it's been such a slog this week is that I was part of a big event at work. Three days at the Ross Exposition Center left me utterly exhausted each day. 

The catch up in my office on Thursday and Friday also wiped me out, so my head truly wasn't in the crochet game...but the event was a HUGE success! 

Here's a vid one of the middle schools put together:

If I understand it correctly, there will be annual repeats of this event in perpetuity, or as long as it is an effective way to connect educators, local businesses and students (ie-the workforce of the future) and that is a very good plan! Yes, even if it derails my personal craft pursuits...lol!

Anything exciting going on where you live and work, friends? Drop a comment to let me know about it!
