Knitting Olympics - Closing Ceremonies and Extinguishment of Flaming Torch.
Your erstwhile competitor has been sidelined for the past few days. Though not as dramatic as death or taxes, it turned out that professional development, work and family obligations took precedence over showing up for all of the events. Bus schedules were NOT a problem, regardless of what Johnny Weir said.

Finally medal tally:
0 Gold
0 Silver
0 Bronze

Injury tally:
slight carpal tunnel/cramps in left thumb.
FO's 1 pair socks for DH. These are prime wabi-sabi examples, so the marks were not high enough for an individual medal.
WIP sock 1- pr 2 for yours truly. So far, the quality and accuracy of this 4th lifetime sock is high. Keep your fingers crossed. This could earn the highest marks yet. Especially with MUCH simpler step by step kitchener instructions forwarded by DD.
