The Museum gang is headed to Portland for some work events requiring major wardrobe: cocktail party, business meetings, casual work, formal reception and banquet plus the usual 7 hours round-trip in the car.
Only a few days, but around here every trip is an event. It all starts with laundry. Then there's homework organization; assigning cats and mail to neighbors; packing for me, dog and child; dog to kennel; child to friends: everything requires a plan. Sometimes I envy neighbor X: when he travels he just waters the plants and locks the door.
Plus, I have to plan my knitting strategy: what presents I can knit that 1. aren't destined for anyone on the trip, 3. can be knit in the car and 3. don't need major pattern concentration. Sounds like socks to me.
Odds of these being done by Christmas: 0-5%.
