A Very Nice Way to Start the Day.....

Well, this morning I woke up to the beautiful beaming face of my 9 year old son. He presented me with coffee (yeah, I'm raising him right!) and proceeded to bring me down stairs where this was waiting for me.

The recliner chair was set up with blankets and the table had all of my favorite things on it. -my ipod, remote for the dvd player (that had my favorite movie in-Serendipity), my knitting, and Zack's Soduko on the DS that I am now addicted to. I swear, he has been ready to burst the last few days. He even bought me some plants at school. What a sweetie.Here's my guy.

Yep, he's a cutie. But I am a little biased!

Taking a break from knitting today,
I am actually going to be good and put my brace on....
you're supposed to be able to feel your fingers right????

Happy Mother's Day Out There.

Happy Mother's Day Out There!!!

Well, it's the first posting so here goes. I'm just learning this blog thing so please bear with me.....

I have been knitting like a mad woman lately. Carpal tunnel be damned!!!!

Right now I am working on the Nina shawl from Mason Dixon Knitting. I absolutely love the book. That's Molly sleeping on my shawl. You know your loved when you're allowed to sleep on a work in progress!

I have so many projects waiting in the wings. As a knitter of only a year and a half, I am taking the fact that I can now rationalize having many projects going at the same time as a good thing. You know, an blanket for working at home, the shawl for visiting friends, and the occasional socks or washcloth for errands.

Actually, I was strangley happy the other day when I noticed that my lovely stash had out grown it's cupboard and needed to be relocated to a larger piece of furniture. I think it's quite an achievement, but hubby developed a twitch when he noticed I had moved it.

Happy Knitting!
