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...

more yarrrrn...

yupo it's true...i bought more yarn...this one is hand dyed recycled from a sweater 80% wool 20% nylon...purchased from my7kids i'm addicted...i can't stop...i actually have another two skeins coming in the mail sometime soon...with that said...i think i have to leave now to go to a yarn buyers anonymous meeting...

117 days...13 hours...and 7 minutes...
