December 1st.  Wow.  Where did time go?

Oh ya…

1. Work has been NUTS.  Just nuts.  That’s all.  But ya know… I love it when the pressure is on, honestly.
2. Helped my much-loved local yarn shop with their new website.  Check it out at NeighborhoodKnitShop.com.  The site launched last night and is still growing and evolving, but I think it’s off to a great start.
3. Nick and I put an offer in on our first house on the Friday after Thanksgiving.  We’re currently working through the whole counter-offer process.  We should know by 5 p.m. today if we got the house or not (then the only hitch will be if it passes a home inspection).  I’m both excited and nervous (’cause they’ve just today decided we’re officially in a recession, ya know).  We requested a closing date of December 24th.  Merry Christmas to us.  Heh.

So, I’ve kept busy over the last month or so.

What am I knitting?  I’m still working on assorted Christmas gifts.  I’ve made lots of hats and I am still working on one seemingly never-ending scarf.  I’m also working on the February Lady Sweater for myself.  I can’t wait till that’s done.

I want to make these ornaments.  NOW.  Aren’t they fantastic?  I’m envisioning a white tree covered in nothing but these ornaments, filled with yarn in every color of the rainbow.  YES!
