Year End Sale....Hurrah!!!

Alrighty then, I have not really spent any real time blogging in the past 6 months and I guess it is about damn time that I get caught up. I will try and review a few of the FO's from the past few months, there aren't too many of them, since I seem to have a pretty severe case of "finish-itis". I still have plenty of UFO's on the needles, but it seems that things are making progress each time I pull something from its current project bag.

Speaking of project bags, I have to say that I am now the proud owner of some of the coolest and (if I do say so myself) prettiest project bags that I have ever seen (other than Lara that is). Got two from Momma for Christmas/Chanukah, four from Carissa for my birthday and a few that I got on the pre-Thanksgiving trip to Momma's. As soon as I can wrangle a camera to borrow or impose on someone to take some pictures, I will post them here for all to see. The good ol' crackberry just doesn't do them justice at all.

So, anyway, back to FO's and UFO's. I have finished a hat or two, one scarf (the Hamburger Scarf), a few pairs of fingerless in varying patterns. I think somewhere along the way, I finished a "toy" bag (which has never been used). Other than that, it seems like everything else is still a WIP and trudging along slowly.

Have a Clapotis in progress, along with a Movie Shawl for my stepmom, midway up the calf on the second Neverending Knee High, a few inches into the Convertible Shawl (from the CEY Make it Modern pattern book). Have made marginal progress on the Pi Shawl, but lordy...that is the never ending project from Hell. I'm sure there are other things that are on the needles at the present time, but do to lack of sleep and exhaustion, I just can't seem to recount what all of them are.

I keep hearing the siren call of a new"er" queen size bed in my newly aquired larger apartment. I may have bitten off more than I can chew, thinking that I could post a coherent blog after only a mere 3 hours of sleep last night. For now, I think I am gonna hit the save button and come back this afternoon after I have taken a much needed nap.

Be back soon.....

Been gone too long....

Ok, it has been way too long since I have last blogged. In my own defense, it has mostly been that I don't have access to this website from work anymore and by the time I get home, I have no desire to do anything all that productive online. LOL

I have just today discovered how to post a blog from my handy, dandy CrackBerry that I so dearly love and cherish.

Anyway, now that I have the means and the knowledge I will do my best to try and post once in a while....so long as I don't wear out my thumbs in the attempt.
