Progress Report

We are coming close to several of these deadlines, as such, I have set start and finish dates for each project. Drastic times call for drastic measures, no? You will notice that I am allowing myself one week per project, which shouldn't be an issue as they are all small projects. The only one that is getting a lot of time is VJ's v-neck pullover...as it needs lotsa seaming and only the back is finished so far.
If you notice a deadline come and go with no mention from me, PLEASE (pretty please with icing on top) nag the everloving hell outta me. My Mother-in-Law's birthday socks will be coming with me to my companys annual conference this week. I plan to have them done by the time I get back, since I should have lots of random down time and I have no compunctions about carrying my knitting to and fro with all of my co-workers looking on. My Mother's birthday socks will be coming with me to Bermuda (lucky socks, no?) and I plan to have them done by the end of the trip as well.
