What a Girl Wants....
I just want to knit! Just for five seconds! A swatch, maybe, or a couple of rows on my Harry Potter scarf. Or the beribboned Baby Blanket. But no....life keeps getting in the way.... I have actual WORK to do at work (who knew?), a house to move into, and my second job to go to. forget knitting -- I don't have time to eat dinner!
although -- i'm excitedly waiting for some fun things in the mail:
Stef's wristy-bands!
Yarn from Stacy - she is super generous and sending me some fun yarn. How great is that?
and...I got paid today, so I can go to Michael's so I can get one last ball of Cotton-Ease to finish my Cleo. Hooray! I want a finished object!
I also am going to start a new project this weekend with some pretty, soft yarn that my sis Cathy gave me for my birthday. My(soon to be ex) roommate and landlord Anne Marie has put up with a lot of stuff from me and Jacob while we lived in her attic (!), so I'm going to knit her a hat. But not just any hat -- a hat with kitty ears!!
she is just funky enough to love this hat. (I hope...)
well, that's all for now. hope this makes up for my lack of knitting content this week. now I will be working late at the university.

Hi Carrie!
What a great blog. We're kind of cyberneighbors because we're both hosted by PrettyPosies. My efriend Kay and I are total HTML spazzes, so we're still trying to figure out basics like how to put a banner at the top. So frustrating, because I have a background in layout and design, but this stuff is like doing layout with my feet, and one eye covered. NOT intuitive, to say the least!
We'll keep an eye on what you're up to. Happy knitting!

Sorry you are so tired from work and moving. I bet you ARE exhausted. Try to find some time to rest a bit and take care of yourself. Knitting would be good rest time for you!

That kitty hat is awesome! I would love to see someone actually wear it!
