such a slacker...

I've been slacking on this so bad recently... things have been crazy at our house. I think it's ab0ut time to invest in a laptop for myself because it's getting harder to fight my way onto the computer. Soon it will be three men and then me which means practically no computer time except at work. Yes, we're getting another roommate... More people, but atleast more money too. Now if only all that debt would just disappear so we can enjoy it!

Anyway, a few pictures to catch things up. I finally got around to editting of few of the wedding pictures. I also got another s'prise from my secret pal. I lost the picture I took of the package described in the previous post... must be somewhere in this mess of a computer... But anyway, here goes!


My favorite wedding pic so far:



Secret pal present... I can't believe it's over... but it was SO MUCH FUN!



On the knitting front... It's been all Christmas presents recently and my list is never ending. I've actually got some crochet projects going for Christmas- my first amigurumi undertaking and it's been fun but my hands sure are ready to fall off some nights. Also, P bought me a sewing machine last night for my birthday (Dec 12) after the one we got of craigslist keeps having to be repaired. I swear, last week we replaced two gears that were broken and then it worked fine for a few days before another gear broke. Then, upon closer inspection, there is something 'off' about the bobbin case too. Anyway, it was getting to be too much of an investment when every other day something else went wrong. And we don't have a Singer repair shop around here. I haven't decided what I'm going to do with the old machine yet (Touch & Sew 626- it's supposed to be a really good machine, it's just old) but I now have a Singer Ingenuity and I LOVE it! So, I'm sewing some Christmas presents too. Basically, I'm doing a handmade Christmas this year. I plan on making truffles as gifts too, instead of the typical cookie thing. And I've got a million other ideas off of Craftster - my newest addiction (I'm not a member yet though).
Well, off to sew some more!!!
