Fetching, Part One

One of my Fetching fingerless gloves is done, as you can see. I think this photo really shows the gradations of color, even though they are subtle. I thought it was really cool the way the fushia tones seemed to come up over the cabled portions and the redder tone dominated the straight ribbing part of the glove. I don't know if this is how the second one will work out or not. I'm really pleased with this pattern so far.

I've made quite a bit of progress on the Prosperous Plum Tank. In fact, I cast of the stitches for the back, so now I'm just working on the front. I figure I should have that done fairly soon, so I didn't take any pictures for today. Maybe by Friday I'll have a completed top to show you.

So far, I'm keeping up with my exercise goals. I went to the gym on Monday and yoga last night. Today's an off day and then tomorrow, it's back to the gym. I bought a really cute dress at Nordstrom to wear during the wedding festivities in the Hampton's, but it sure would look a little better if I lost 5 pounds. So, that's what I'm trying to do with the exercise. That might mean I have to forego a scone at Rebecca's on Saturday - well, one little scone won't hurt, right?I've heard it's going to be hot as hell this weekend, so actually, Rebecca's might be a bad choice. Does anybody have any other suggestions? I will try to see if we can use my parents' place, but my mom had a bad oyster a couple of days ago and is still on the mend. Since my place is air conditioned, it's a possibility as well. Let me know!
