Don't Worry..
I'm still alive : )
And I have to admit I'm feeling about 80% better about things.. I have completed yet another semester of college, and am holding strong onto my 4.0. (Yay another A!) I got a 100% on my final exam.. and I'm still happy about that.. lol.
I haven't been knitting much though.. I find that when I get home from work I'm just so tired.. and then in the mornings before work.. I'm just so tired.. Lol.. It's tough.
But I do knit some.. just not enought to post pictures of progress just yet. I think over the weekend I should be able to get some serious knitting time in. You know.. in between housework <: /
But ya know.. whatever.. I'm getting things done.. and our apartment is looking quite a bit better since my mom came to rescue me from the box maze. Her and Brad put up a bunch of the stuff I couldn't.. and it looks so much better. Really. It's so nice. It's not "Lets have company" nice.. but it's nice.. lol.
I still haven't tried out my new swift yet.. I should buy some yarn in hank form just so I can try it out.. Everyone is knitting lace now days.. Should I conform to the peer pressure? (I'm starting to think so.)
On mother's day we spoke with Brad's mum (She is mum, my mom is mom.. confusing? Not as much as two moms!) and she is knitting a knee length coat for herself in an aran pattern.. I told her that she needs to show me as soon as it's finished, because it sounds really exciting. I wish we lived closer to her so that I could borrow it >: )
But anyway.. I just wanted you guys to know that I'm still around and alive and I should get back to this whole blogging thing soon enough!

Congrats on the 4.0!
Go for the lace. As frustrating as it can seem at times, it really is fun.
I've thought about doing an aran coat but I figured they'd be too heavy. I'd be interested in hearing how her's turns out.

About Me

- Name:Kim
- Location:Houston, Texas, United States
I'm a tiny short woman who loves to knit clothes that actually fit me. I first learned to knit when I was about 10 but I never got beyond knit and purl. I didn't pick up knitting again till about 2 years ago, and now with the help of tons of library books, I'm chugging along and I think I'm pretty darn good : ) I'm married, and love my Australian husband dearly.
