So Much Stuff!!!

I have been doing so many things lately its hard to keep track, let alone make sure to Blog about them!

Working on a Hemlockring Throw that is coming out gorgeous in Malabrigo's worsted weight in the colorway of Violetas. Can you say, "SMOOSHY!" I thought you could!

Next, reading has been on short supply because many of my favorite authors don't have anything being released soon, except for a few here or there. I shall be updating my Book Challenge post very very soon.

Finally, I have been spending money, which I need to stop very soon, as the hubby and I wish to take a cruise next year during Spring Break with my family. So yarn clubs are going to have to be deminished soon or not renewed. ::sniff, le sigh::

Much more later!

Seasons Project Bag Club!


WOOT! I am in the club... weeee!!! Amy of GoodtobeGirl opened up a Project Bag Club for the Fall and Winter season. It was a reasonable price and luckily I stalk her site often enough to see the offer and send in my request to join. I can't wait to see what goodies are on the way soon.

Funny, I should say that... she just sent out an email to the club members and they will be in the mail by Monday! ::YEAH!::

YEAR GOAL - 50 (MET!!!!)
To Date - 145

At the end of December I joined a group on LibraryThing, where the goal was to try and read 50 books throughout the year. This group stated that audiobooks and rereads of books counted, it even will count magazines too! So I joined and have been keeping a list of books for the month so far. I will edit it thoughout the year and post my ever growing booklist, perhaps you will find one or two that will tickle your fancy!
