Just Not Enough Time in the Day...

for me to do all I want to do. Wah! (Okay, I'm done whining now.)

Started writing this post at about 9 this morning. Kept the window minimized all day and finally got back to it at 10:30 p.m. Where did the time go?

Let's see... I desperately had to do some unnecessary shopping that should have taken about 1/2 hour but took 3 hours instead. Then, I had to make a gazillion three or four phone calls to straighten out medical insurance stuff, then I wanted to work on the website and see how far I could get without having to stick needles in my eye but a friend came over to shop in my stash instead and whoops! I found myself ordering some more yarn to throw on the shelf in my closet along with the rest of my stash make a couple of blankets. Then it was time to go and get my daughter and the rest of the day was taken up with her. Not too productive, I'd say, and still, have you seen me mention that I got any knitting done?

Noooooooooo....

I have not gotten any knitting done since Monday. Not even in bed at 4 a.m. when I wake up or 11 p.m. when I watch TV for a couple of hours... not a single, solitary stitch!

Buuuuuutttt...

While my friend was over, she said there was a package for me on the front step, along with my mail and would I like her to bring it inside? Sure... thanks!

So in she marches with a priority mail envelope, looking at me, trying to make me feel guilty for ordering more yarns... except I didn't order anymore yarns... honest, I really didn't... well, I did, but they have not arrived yet...

So I opened the package, and what did I see, but my sock-ret pal's next "installment" on my spoiling... Check out these goodies... I know, I know, the picture sucks.



What you don't see is that the strawberry chocolate wrapper is already empty... the PEZ candies are all down my throat and the snowflake crystals, as well as this incredibly great smelling bar of handmade soap (yum!) will be hitting the tub tomorrow night! The Regia "Crazy Colors" that I got are truly crazy and I love them. Fuschia, purples, greens, blues and orange. And guess what? The colors work beautifully together. These will make a gorgeous pair of socks! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

New year is coming quicker than I care to think about and I am not one to make resolutions, however I will make one. I plan to write more frequently on this blog. I really enjoy it when I do get around to it and I want to do it more often, so I think I will set an outlook reminder for myself every couple of days to come in here and add something. Let's see how long this resolution lasts. It's got to be better than all the failed diet resolutions I made all my life.

I'm going upstairs now to watch some TV. I'm taking my knitting. I can live in hope, can't I?
