Hello 2023

 It has been a cold and snowy winter, and that pleases me greatly. There is no better knitting weather than cold and snow. I have been able to wear nearly all of my handknits!

That is, of course, except for the ones that need mending. Or buttons. Or to have their ends woven in. And somehow I have something like six projects on the needles and I want to cast on one (or ten) more. 

I am working on grad school applications, hoping that one of them will accept me and I can get out of Utah. 

I have just started a self-paced for-credit Norwegian 101 class through the University of North Dakota. I have been studying Norwegian with DuoLingo for almost a year now and I'm hoping that an actual academic class will help me gauge where I'm at an what I need to do next. 

I turn 50 in just over a year and I have stopped coloring my hair. I have this swathe of white/silver at the front and I'm curious to see what that looks like. 

Not sure if I'll keep going with the blog, it's been a while since I have done this regularly, but we'll see.
