fun stuff: backyarnians

these blankets have been seeing a lot of our back yard lately.
here they are basking in the autumn sun.
i say they are half-way finished
but with both...i still have a whole blanket to go.
 i'm almost finished reading emily st. john mandel's station eleven.
if you like post-apocalyptic tales and if you enjoy a good mystery, 
i would highly recommend this one.
the reading is light and easy but the insights are deep and profound.

also...although i've been on a news fast for as long as i remember now,
i am going through (and quite enjoying) my neighbour's recycled papers
while my son collects clippings for a school law project.

like always, despite the sensationalist journalism of the first page,
i turn straight into the life section...
then to the obits.
 what are you knitting? reading?
care to share?
