December!

Okay it is December the last month in the year! Time passes by so quickly. I have two dishcloth project on the needles. My daughter has a secret Santa at work and she asked me if I would knit a couple of dishcloths and a scarf for her secret Santa. So I have cast on the first of 3 dishcloth's tonight the dishcloth is from Garden Dishcloths to Knit by Melissa Bergland Burnham the Sunflower in Hot Orange. The second dishcloth project has nothing to do with secret Santa it is from baby washcloth To Knit by Melissa Bergland Burnham, the plan is to start with the first cloth and knit all 9 and continue to knit them over and over again. A woman on my job is pregnant and her baby is due in February and a lot of my daughter's friends are getting married and having babies. So if I stock up I can have gifts ready for her to give to her friends. My other plan is to knit a few dishcloths and a scarf of a friend at work who has given me rides home since my house guest Gin has been living her and working, so that she can use my car to get to work. I want her to know how much I appreciated her giving me rides home sometimes 3 days out of the week. Gin has a car now but still has to get tags and pay the taxes. So I want have to ask for a ride much longer. I want to get the dishcloths and scarf done by December 23rd. I need to get busy.

Another Rain filled Monday

I will never get the repair I need on my roof if it does not stop raining. I can't get a new roof but I can get a repair. The roofer was suppose to come if all went well last Wednesday but guess what it rained so no roofer, then Thanksgiving and the day after I did not expect the roofer. Well it rained again today and I think it us suppose to rain again on Wednesday. So far no knitting or crochet. I need to do better about these things.

Marvelous long weekend coming to a close.

Well it's back to work on Monday. I has been a great long weekend. My daughter came in on Wednesday night and we went to the movies to see planet 51 it was pretty good. On Monday I went to see New Moon with Gin and on Friday my daughter, my niece mother and gin went to see a Christmas Carol it was good too I enjoyed the movie. I have been to more movies in the last week than I usually go to all year. Also on Friday I finally made it to Common Threads Yarn Shop 1415 Welborn St. Suite 102 High Point NC 27262. The people at the shop are so nice and friendly and they have a lot of Noro. I brought one skein of Cascade Yarn 220 Superwash.
