I Can Do It!

Dora the Explorer and Obama make me want to write that in Spanish. Chavez makes me not write it in Spanish.

I am, of course, referring to my crazy knitting schedule I have imposed upon myself. The Yarn Harlot writes about the same sort of thing here. I am getting there, though. I finished my dad's Christmas hat yesterday and I am about a third of the way through my mom's Christmas scarf. I also have about 6 inches left on my grandpa's Christmas scarf which is becoming a Christmas neckwarmer, since I HATE that Moda Dea yarn (it gets little hairs into my throat and eyes and I HATE it) and because I just found out my dad bought him a cashmere scarf a month ago that has not been worn once. So I am not investing more time in a scarf that won't be worn- I"ll just be finishing enough to join it together with a quick seam.

In any case, I did actually finish the rest of the Christmas knitting/sewing. If I end up with any extra time this week, I may make a babydoll quilt and pillow for Peanut. R is going to go get her a couple more things to open this week, but we're basically done. I can't believe it...

Lucky luckly! No rest for the weary here. Now that I'm not puking I've got to shower and get back to sewing so my monkeys have monkeys for Christmas. ^_^

I'm lucky that this year she has no expectations, so we're not exactly having to break the bank. Expecially since there is no bank. :)
