My mini sock!

I kind liked how it looked. I couldn't wait to put in online - that's why there is still a thread hanging out the sock :). Well I guess having way too much time helps to do such things too. Here are the instructions for any other stranded at home wives with no kids: ---> (hint hint Ursina)

So yesterday I got a call from UBS. Oh my, I have been waiting for that call for sooooo long. So what they said was they have 2 approved positions in Manhattan for next year. I need to go for another interview in the city this week. This is kinda where the problem starts.. this week is bad because there is a public transportation strike in NYC. No buses, no subway and no trains. You can only drive into the city by car if you have 4 passengers. It's a complete mess! Oh well.. if they call me for an interview I will just have to walk. This time I will take my running shoes and then change shoes just before I get there. I can take the ferry in - because the ferry is not on strike.

I got up at 8 am this morning just to see the traffic. And as far as my eyes went..(with binoculars) traffic jam!!!

On Sunday I went shopping. It was really cold. So when I got to the car with the shopping cart I was tempted to just leave the cart next to the car. "The hell" I thought, I am not bringing the cart back it's too cold. Then I heard my moms voice: "But F., if everybody would do that..." kinda the good angel and bad devil thing on your shoulders.. "but mom everybody is doing it ALREADY! Look" Dozens of shopping carts where standing around in the lot. It's so easy to adopt bad behavior. I brought the cart back, and I always will! Even if I am the only person bringing it back!
