HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy new year everyone.

Im doing this now because im gonna be very busy making stuff for

marks friends party tomorrow night. As much as I dont want to go. you know I rather stay home.

and be cozy and safe in my own home knit to my hearts content and watch the ball drop and cry for a minute or two like I always do. I am not drinking heavy maybe a touch of wine. but Im not going overboard

and repeating the office christmas party and throw up my guts for 1 full day.

So everyone have a happy and healthy, and be safe.

Pissed off beyond!

Ok I can understand once in a while we stay late and take on emergencies but every time im there is so not fair. I worked again 10 hours with no lunch. Then after work I went to borders to see about a new knitting book but there was nothing good especially after the holidays. and then I went to the supermarket and bought stuff for pasta with garlic and oil. came home made dinner and just opened the Laptop and I am posting "from my laptop" (mom). I can't get enough of this thing. Thank you so much Mom and Dad!!!!!

On the knitting front, I am knitting up a laptop case from AlterKNITS in Fushia And black Just like my bag That mark bought for me when we went in the city. And it is coming out awesome.

But I really can't complain about work too much I do Have off on Friday, so that means a three day weekend, And I really have to try to get to SnB this week. Im Gonna try my best to get out on time tomorrow night. Any way I need to knit something and feel good while doing so. Talk soon

Christmas review!

Wow!!! Christmas was here and It was a great one. But the one thing I hate was that it went so fast and I hate that. It feels like I just got off from work and the four days went by with a blink an eye. All in all it was very nice I have to say, my parents are the best, But towards the end of the night I got very emotional and I was crying. I love them dearly and I worry about them with all the worrying they do, I need them to be here for a while, don't get me wrong nothing is wrong with them Like I said I just got very emotional, I think it might be close to that time of the month where us women get emotional over the smallest thing. I guess my chemistry is changing. hehehehe! I have a few pictures to post I have to reinstall my Kodak picture CD so I can get them up on the blog. Any way it's late and I have to get up early for work tomorrow. More to post tomorrow. Oh and a quick thing I should be getting a package from little knits I can't wait it should be here tomorrow I hope, It was my Christmas gift to my self. Just a little bit of noro........ I can't wait.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

It seems like this year went so fast, And not only to me but to everyone I know. Its crazy, I know it sounds like im rushing thing but I cant wait till its all over. And the new year gets here. There a lot of thing I have to do this coming year.

Any way Tonight is my mother in laws for the Christmas eve with the fish and crab sauce and and then tomorrow is my mom and dads for Breakfast and an early dinner. I cant wait. It's like Thanksgiving all over again. Turkey sweet potatoes and all the fixings.

So my secret pal got her last package and she loved it. I sent her the hand knit holidays book and some chocolate and a book for the boys and a burt bees lip gloss some yarn that was celery colored and I think im missing something. But all in all Im so glad she got the package early and she loved it. Thanks secret pal for being a great pal.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Classic photo of the empire state building

It's cold

It was so cold at this point. I was so tired my feet hurt and I was so cold.

I dont remember where this was i know it was on 23rd street some where.

The Flat Iron Building.

This ones for my mom, she always loved black n white photos.

And I always love this Building. theres just something about it.

Crazy weekend

Alright here it goes....
Thursday night After work at 7:00 pm I went to moms in the Bronx mind you an hour ride in, slept over and had a great few hours of sleep in the spare bedroom. I had the bed all to myself and it felt great to strech my legs way over the other side and not have to worry about kicking mark in the ribs. heheehe!!!
Friday morning woke up at 8 am had coffee with mom and off we went Christmas shopping. Got back to moms at 3:00 pm
had dinner at moms and then headed off to Long Island. Got home at 9 pm washed up and fell asleep.

Saturday morning Got up to goto work, came home 2:30 pm . I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open, Mark came home from practice and said lets goto sushi for dinner and for some reason I wasn't tired anymore. I love sushi.

Sunday I got up at 6:30 to shower and catch the train at 7:43 to penn station with mark, we had fun but it seems like nothing opened till12 noon on Sunday, so we were aimlessly walking around till we found a book store to kill time in. So you can imagine how tired I am today after a 9 hour day without lunch.

I cant wait till Saturday. And Sunday when I get to mom and dads. I wonder what they got for me. I think they have a little surprise, Im not sure what it is but I can't wait to open it......
And I can't wait till its all over. Im so done with all the stores. Ican't wait on line anymore.
So I have a few pictures to post. Catch you soon ....

Silverthaw

This yarn is amazing. I love this yarn. and the color way is so beautiful and so soft.

this is by far the best feeling and fun yarn I have worked with.

Fingerless gloves.

Fingerless glove I made out of the Donegal tweed from Sirdar. In lime color. I have to take a better picture in the day time so you can see the colors.

And thanks to Laurie I would have never made a pair she did hers in pink and they were so cool I had to make a pair.

More snow on the way.

It's crazy. But nothing significant on the east end. I had a hard day at work today. I was so not in the mood to be there. I woke up this morning on the wrong side of the bed not a happy camper today. And Im never like that. Never ever.
Any way I've been busy knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting. I made very cool fingerless gloves due to Lauries lovely gloves that I watched her finish last Thursday, I also made a pair for my honey. And then I started up a beautiful hat with Noro Silverthaw. It is amazing, and so wonderful to work with. I want to buy a whole bunch of it, Quite expensive though, But the hat was only a one skeiner.
But that's about it. I been working my ass off the mooolllaaaa is flowing in and all im doing now is saving, it's a great feeling but working every day is kicking my ass. Im not used to it.
But any way I must get back to the knitting not much time for that lately and I must read the rest of a million little pieces, great book kinda of depressing but so far it's turning around.
until next time.

Our back yard Christmas tree.

This is what happens when you wear your Snowman socks. I love waking up to a fresh coat of snow. It's so beautiful...

Snow wishes

I wore my snow socks just to make the odds of the inches better, and when I woke up this morning there was a beautiful scene in the back yard.....

Yeeppppeeeeeee!!! It's snowing...

I love the snow....
A really quick breakdown....
Work is great, The money is rolling in and im getting addicted to it. But the only downside is it's cutting into my knitting time. And I don't get a chance to see my knitting friends because by the time Thursday comes im pooped. But this is gonna be a great week. I can't wait till Saturday. I have my Christmas party for work and then after that im going to missys sleepover with all the knit girls.. I can't wait. Im so glad im going.
On Thursday I did get a chance to goto Panera to see half of the girls. It was good to see them. I will see you all this Thursday.
"Christmas shopping" Yea right. I haven't gone out to do so. I did a little on line but not much and I don't think I have any time to do it since I work every day including Saturdays. Im hating life right now But I know it is all for the best.
any way I don't want to stay online too long I just have to post a few pic's and I gotta knit.
Have a great snow day.
