My First Sock KAL...

I've finally decided (at the urging of the Forbidden Knitter) to join the Sock It To Me Swap, see the button on my side bar....

Keep your fingers crossed. I have some yarn already picked out that I was ready to start with, but I will wait to see what AJ posts as our Awesome Vendor List gets posted.....

Wish me luck, as I have the UFO KAL that I must work on as well as the SKC Double KAL....

Don't ya just love yarn addiction? I know I do!

Calmer has Arrived!!!!!!

I am so excited!

My order from Richesse arrived moments ago. The yarn is a wonderful shade of blue and is so soft that I want to stop working and begin Fifi, but alas, if I stop working I will not get paid and a dreadful downward spiral will begin.

So, Calmer will go home with me this evening and I will get the needles ready for a Friday cast on. I wish I could have it ready for the 4th, but I doubt that I will be able to devote that much time to it.....

Tuesday Temptations

Lo and behold, it's Tuesday and I have not posted any knitting or much at all. Well, here is the first entry for this week. As I was drinking my coffee this morning I was planning out my week and the upcoming weekend (last weekend before the next birthday).

These are just a few things that wandered through my thoughts and tried to tempt me away from the posted schedule:

1. Dreyer's SlowChurned Rich and Creamy Yogurt Blends - Chocolate Fudge Brownie

2. "License to Wed" with Robin Williams

3. My first non-child appropriate car - a Chrysler Sebring Convertible like this.

4. A romantic Olivia Cruise like this with the Wifey for an anniversary.....

5. Fall trip to here, just because we can.

6. I need this so that I can watch all my favorite shows (Knitty Gritty/Uncommon Threads/WNBA Games/ETC.) while I swim in my pool or while I m relaxing on the patio.

7. I'm feeling like I could use this stone in a necklace or ear rings, or both for my birthday......

8. I have been dreaming of making something with this, as the name is decadent and it seems like a perfect knitting project for something special...

9. I am also day dreaming of this too....

10. And finally....I want to see this too....

Back to reality...

Yee Haw, Ya'll!

What will Wifey and I be doing tonight....

We will be celebrating Lone Star Pride at the Festival & Parade.

The Munchkin is even going to sport rainbow colored jewlery all day today too!

There has been actual knitting taking place this week to, and I'll post about that tomorrow with pictures.

Retro Munchkin

Here are the pictures of the Munchkin in her "new" sweater....
