Fay and the Ravelympics

Howdy-ho out there in cyber land. Currently holding down the fort here in Jacksonville, which hasn't been hit by a hurricane in like 30 years, so naturally the year that the bf and I move here we get one. So far its been pretty mellow. Windy, rainy, but nothing crazy. We haven't even lost power. Thank the gods for spam...don't ask.
I would like to say that I have lots to tell ya'll but really, I've been working pretty much around the clock and just trying to get sleep when I can.

I've been working on a pair of mittens for the Ravelympics, but I seriously doubt I'll be able to finish them because I am just now finishing up the thumb of the first mitten. I love the pattern though. Brooklyn Tweed's Jared is sort of a super knitting genius and this is the third of his patterns I've done and he just has a wonderful eye for detail.
Fay is just keeping us inside today, except for a brief sojourn outside to snap a picture of the sky which takes on a really interesting shade of gray during severe weather.
I've also posted some pictures of Danny and Kim's wedding. I don't know how we managed to not get a single good picture of the bf and I together, but whatever.
