Yesterday it snowed in Seattle. This was April 16th. It's not the latest snowfall, I don't think. But it was surprising and amusing at the same time because about 2 hours before it had been very warm and sunshiney.
We had a "launch party" at work to show off a new phone that launched. However because I'm a contractor, the only thing I get out of these is candy and cheap crap. (Yes, I'm a bit cranky about it.)
On the upside of yesterday, one of the security guards spotted a large bug in the lobby of one of the office buildings. He asked me if I could convince it to go outside. I said sure because I recognized it as a Mason bee. A very placid bee species. I convinced her to step onto a piece of paper and she ended up settling on my hand instead (and then I jogged my elbow against the door accidentally and she fell to the ground.)
Poor baby was cold. And I left her on an azalea bush in the sun so she could warm up.
I apparently disturb some people because I'm not afraid of things like bees.
Today it is sunny and warm outside. I had a nice walk and a nice bus ride to work. I'm still knitting on my socks, the needles still hurt my fingers, and the colors and fabric are still interesting.
I also finished spinning a yarn I was very excited to finish. It is sitting on its bobbin waiting for me to get home tonight.
Here's a sneak peak of the yarn after plying it yesterday:
