Christmas is coming?!

This work thing is seriously impeding my ability to knit... Although right now I'm waiting for the polish on one finger to dry and can't knit (don't ask, it involves a top coat of polish, routing through my circulars and a smudged nail which is why my nails are never painted anymore. I used to be so well coiffed. Now I'm just happy if I'm clean most days.) so I thought I would blog. I have one item ready for Christmas.

These are monkey socks in regia. Granny Tan gave me the yarn and as soon as I saw it I thought to myself "monkey socks"! And so that's what I did. They are lovely.

I just had to go out and rescue my green big. We are having quite the wind/rain storm and I heard it blow around. I was quite cute out there in my jammies fighting the rain with a flashlight as I rolled around the big green cart. My life is sooo glamorous...

I have a rough idea of what I"m doing for Christmas but I haven't formalized a list. I am breaking down and taking some knitting into work to do at lunch time. I have a great aunt who loves the cable bootie and needs a new pair so I'll do those during at work. I have one half done.

I suspect by Christmas I'll be like this.....


(I just had to put a pic of miss emily in!)

Okay I have to give ollie some blog time. miss emily can walk under him when he's standing. Hard to believe he can curl up in such a small ball... maybe I should turn up the heat...
