TGIF!!!!!!!

I am so glad it is friday for a bunch of reasons.

First, my hubby will be home in a few short hours. I havent seen him since monday. Second, I am getting a pedi @ 11:30am Saturday. Third, the first meeting of GC's SnB will get underway @ 2:30pm Saturday!!! I am sooooo excited about getting together with other stitchers and bitching about anything and everything! Oh and fourth, We are going to go bike riding with the kiddos this weekend. The weather is going to be great and the zoo is calling our names!

The new "blank" tins have arrived, and I have already been altering away. 2 down, 10 to go. I will post pics of the new tins maybe tomorrow after SnB.

Oh, I started on my first pair of fingerless gloves. Tried "fetching" a couple of yrs ago with no success. So, wish me luck with these! Hopefully I will have those done in a few days and can post pics for you all to drool over!! :o)

Gotta go feed my munchkin some lunch.
Till next time....... Knit Happiness!

Tin Swap

So, this tin swap is a lot harder than I thought! I am finding tins all over the place, but I am not sure they are the ones for my SP. I am not sure what to get when it comes to extras. GGRRRRRR I am told by everyone there to just buy things that I would enjoy and it will be ok, I am not so sure. It is kinda scary actually. I just want my SP to be uber excited about her tins n stuff. Out to figure more things to get. Till next time............

Swap Talk

So I am doing this swap on Ravelry right now, it is so cool! We are swapping tins! No, not the green money kind, altoids type containers. I am having a blast looking for tins all over the net and at my local antique shop. Now, I just need my swapee so I know exactly what to look for. Getting back into knitting has been really exciting! All the new yarns, notions, and patterns that are out there now. Cant wait to try em all! Till next time...........

Knit Love!

Where has the time gone??

WOW!! More than a year since my last post. I have been super busy with the fam, the kiddos, work, and just life in general. I finally picked up the knit sticks a few weeks ago to knit a scarf. Now I am working on another one and I am going to make some matching fingerless gloves of some sort. Taking it slow though, carpal tunnel has reeked havoc on my right wrist. grrr
With life getting so crazy, blogging took a back seat for a long time. So, I promise to blog at least once a week from now on. I need to revamp my whole page too! Lots of work to be done here, so I had better get to it. I hope to reconect with all my knit pals and make some great new ones. So, til next time peeps, gettcho knit on!!!! :o)
