holiday knitting extravaganza

In Australia (or Victoria at least), kids get two weeks off over Easter, which means I do too :)
I'm three days into my holiday and I have almost caught up with the housework (can't seem to find the motivation to dust yet...) and have begun my knitting marathon. I borrowed the BBC mini-series of Charles Dickens' Bleak House to watch while I knit. I started it this morning, and it is very bleak, but good background noise to help me get heaps of knitting done. I'm not much of a Dickens fan (too serious and depressing) but I really enjoyed watching Our Mutual Friend with Kate and so I've taken a risk.
Today is the first sunny day of my holidays and I should probably spend some of it weeding (our yard is a bit of a disgrace) but weeding is tedious. I'll mow the lawn instead with our exciting new push mower :)
