chitty...chitty...bang...bang...

well...i have stuff on my needles...however...i haven't been able to accomplish much...maybe i'll sit down tonight for a few hours and get something done...my mum was at her lys in georgia and picked up some sock yarn so that i can knit her and my dad some socks so that should arrive in the mail sometime this week...

daniboy...

this one is for daniboy...my jersey boy...this song even makes me miss hoboken...chunky pam...you rock...

no knittin' for ewe...

well i haven't done much knitting over the past few days...i've kinda had my hands full...i can't seem to get a break...and when i finally do get some down time...i'm so tired that i just end up in bed sleeping...maybe this weekend will be more productive for me and i'll get something accomplished...maybe i'll finally get to cast something off my needles...and cast on something new...keeping appendages crossed...

my bsj...

well i finally gave in on friday and started my first baby surprise jacket...thanks to lj...it's knitting up pretty quickly...i'm hoping that it will fit cloe...i want to have it finished by monday so that i can send it off as a early x.mas present...maybe if she's lucky i'll knit up some matching booties...or a hat...who knows...

99 days...1 hour...26 mins...

phew...another x.mas gift completed...this is my papi's marsan hat...it was a easy knit...knitted up really quick...took about a day...so far i'd say that i'm doing pretty damn well with keeping on track...now on to the next project...eventually i'll have to break in between and knit something up for myself...i just don't know yet what it will be...

slacker...

yep...that would be me...i've been slackin...not intentionally...i just haven't had much to write...

ricky go let go from his former employer...the bastards...it's the first time he's been fired...i think he's a little upset/disappointed...he's been filling out applications...filing for unemployment...posting on his regular boards...and hogging the damn 'puter...sheesh...

what's a girl to do? i finished up abuelita's ballet slippers and i'm going to start a hat...for my dad...i'll have to go to the library to print out the pattern...so i probably won't start it until tomorrow or maybe even the weekend...

blah...

yuck...yuck...yuck...hopefully i'll start feeling better soon...i've been glued to the couch all day...feeling like shit...dani kiss me goodnight lastnight and told me that he felt sick...i felt fine...but all of a sudden in the middle of the night it began...and i've continued to feel like this all day...

yarn whore...

yesterday i received two skeins in the mail...it's 100% wool yarn...worsted weight 220yards/100 grams...i purchased it from dreamy meow who could resist...it was on sale...and i loved the colors...i'm not sure of what i'm going to do with them just yet...but i'm sure i'll have no problem figuring it out...i finished a apple cozy for dani's teacher...i just have to buy a button and a big apple for it so that i can take a picture of it...now what to work on...hmmm...

lj...

this picture is for lj...my big sister in canada...she has a love for sheep... now that i think about it i think that's why she bought me that pillow case years ago...and i mean years ago...i'll have to take a pic of it one day...i've looked for another glass like this for her online but have had no luck yet...i happened to stumble on this find about 5 years ago in the salvation army for cheap i think a buck...it's my sweet tea glass...i have a few things in mind for her for x.mas...but cannot reveal on here...so i'll have to blog about them somewhere else...nahahahaha...

if you know me you'll know that i'm terrible about keeping surprises...i get so excited that i can't keep from talking...i think it's because i hate to be surprised...i'm thinkin' it's a control issue...i'm the worse especially at x.mas...i remember as a child telling my brothers everything they got for x.mas...they hated me for it...as you can see...nothing much has changed...
