Hello Friends,
I hope you are doing well. I have been doing well. It feels like right now there is so much going on and I need to take more time to work on things. Our wedding is coming up in October and then we are moving a couple of weeks later in November to our townhouse in Toronto. It is going to be a whirlwind of activities. I am excited we are going forward with the wedding, but also feel like now I have to get busy and we have a lot of work and preparations to do. I of course, am sitting here knitting and blogging instead because its Wednesday and that is what I like to do and the other responsibilities can be worked on later.
I started knitting the Ridge Rib Men's scarf by Linda Thach, pattern found on Ravelry. This is going to be a gift for my fiancé Liam for Christmas. The yarn I am knitting with is Loops & Threads Impeccable yarn in the colorway black. I am using straight needles size US 10, 6.0 mm, as suggested in on the pattern. I am starting to knit gifts earlier this year. I might also knit him some socks. I want to knit some other things for my family as well.
I finished reading Everything is F*cked by Mark Manson. It was such a good book and really interesting to read. He does his research and discusses interesting events in history and philosophers. I like that I learned a lot while reading it. I want to read his other book The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck. I have started reading Normal People by Sally Rooney. It seems like it will be a good read and I am just learning about the characters at this point. I will let you know how I like it as I read on.

Thank you for visiting my blog! The cases of Covid-19 are going up in Toronto unfortunately and even before school starts tomorrow. I really hope we don't get the second wave in the Fall and that it holds off for awhile. I also hope that people stay safe and practice safe socializing and keep distance from those not in their bubble. It is hard when socializing to keep this in mind and to keep distance, but it will really help everyone as a whole in the long run.
Have a great day!
