Happy New Years

Let it Snow.. Let it Snow..

WIP - Chase’s Christmas stocking is ¾ done.. woo woo. 2 preemie Baby Hat down and one to go. The last one is a mock cable. Lots of fun. I’m also trying to finish the Enterlac scarf and I started a “Flower Head Band”. Cute pattern that several FNK ladies are also knitting. I hope keep Chase’s stocking done this week. I also want to line it..

What I’m Doing – Tomorrow I have Knitting Guild. Our annual Christmas Potluck. Also I’m on the nominating committee and we have to gather names tomorrow. I got the Torro Shovel… and let me tell you it works great. I have company till Dec. 27. So I’m also trying to get my baking done. It’s not working though. I have my package ready to mail to Rene but……… I’m not done baking what I want to send here. I don’t know why I’m feeling the crunch.. Christmas is 15 days away. I also decided to mail a Christmas Letter. I wasn’t really up to it but I’ll put a picture of my grandson’s on it and that will help. It looks like it’s going to snow. I just wish it warm up. It’s been 10 and below all week. BRRRRR

What Audio Books I’m Listen To – “In the Company of Others” by Jan Karon” here at work. In the car “Wick Appetite” by Janet Evanovich. I’m not liking it.. Too weird. But I’m enjoying Father Tim. At home I’ve been listening to “Gingerbread Murder”. It’s 3 books and fun to listen to while I’m baking. I finished “Mckettricks of Texas: Garrett “ by Linda Lael Miller and “Worth Dying For” by Lee Child… 5*.

What’s on my Bed Stand – I finished Triumph : life after the cult a survivor's lessons by Carolyn Jessop. It was very good. Nothing on the bed stand right now.

Weather - cold… let it snow

WIP - Masters Level 1 – I found out that there is an updated instructions. If you do not finish within a year you’ll have to use the new… well I decided to get the new instructions so I am starting over as I never intended on finishing within the year. I also started Chase’s Christmas stocking. Also on my needles is a preemie Baby Hat that the Guild is knitting for Charity. They have little kits with enough yarn for 3 hats.

What I’m Doing – Tomorrow I have Knitting Guild. I plan on shopping for Thanksgiving and get some of my goodies for baking for Christmas. I’m not looking forward to that. I also want to get a power shovel.. Torro for shoveling the deck . It takes me 2 days to clean my deck and an area for my dog after each snowfall. I’m bless to have the neighbor kids do my driveway. I help support there hockey habit.

What Audio Books I’m Listen To - I just finished “Queen of the Night” by JA Jance. 4*. I’m also listening to “ Tough Customer” by Sandra Brown in my car. Last month I listened 18 different audio books .. I worked allot of overtime while working on our Dealer show. They helped me get through it. The best where - “The Red Queen” by Philippa Gregory, “Half Broken Horses” Jeannette Walls, “The Lonely Polygomist” by Brad Udall, “A Secret Kept” Tatiana De Rosnay, “The Whisper” and “The Mist” by Carla Neggars.

What’s on my Bed Stand – Triumph : life after the cult a survivor's lessons by Carolyn Jessop.

Weather - Cloudy skies with a few snow showers tonight. Low around 25F. Winds light and variable.
