No class again tomorrow. (Thank all that is holy that we are going to have a "change" in the weather pattern starting this weekend, and all the weathermen are claiming this is the last winter storm we should get this winter.)
On the upside, the roads (sample size of 1, here: the street in front of my house) look slick and dangerous - glaze of ice, with little ice-ridges from where people drove on the snow. And it's supposed to get cold enough tonight to freeze the somethings off of a brass something, so that ice isn't going anywhere, at least until tomorrow afternoon.
On the downside: I miss teaching the group of students that is turning out to be my favorite class this semester (Yes, I know. It's probably wrong for profs to have "favorite" class groups but really, give me a room full of students who are polite to me and to each other, who clean up after themselves in lab without being reminded to, and who ask interesting questions, and they will become my favorites)
But on the upside yet again: I will certainly finish Thermal now.
And I decided on my Invigilating Knitting for Friday (and yes, there WILL be class on Friday. There WILL.), I will get out the somewhat-stalled "Miss Marple Shawl" and work on that. Because it's something already all cast on for, and all swatched, and partly knit. And it's also basic enough that I don't have to constantly watch a pattern to keep up with it. (This is another project that stalled - like the most recent socks - because I'm afraid I may run short on yarn. I'm going to have to watch and maybe cut out a pattern repeat or two, depending.)
