Signs of the season~

Overslept this morning and don't even feel guilty about it. I do have a lot to do today so I better get crackin'. Got a steaming cup of hot goodness (coffee). I am set!

The dinner party was a little awkward but, nice. It's a very small company but, they have doubled their employees in the last year. It was nice not to be the new people like last year. It was also nice having a meal with adults. Plus, it's one more thing I can cross off of my to do list.

Finished my first slit scarf. One down, two to go! I gotta tell you I was pretty proud of myself for teaching myself how to bind off!

I am also working on my homemade ornaments. ATC Christmas Ornaments. I hope my family likes them, gets them, and doesn't think that I am cheap. Each on is an original piece of my art work. These are the front and back view(s). I think they are super cute but, I made them.

Riley and I made a small attempt at decorating the apartment. When I say small, I mean small. I am not even sure how we are going to have a Christmas tree this year. Partially because of space and because I know that Ry & Tay will attack it!

Oh, well at least we have stockings!

I signed up for Shimelle's Christmas Art Journal class.
I almost passed on this one but, when I started looking at other people's work from last year I felt so inspired. After the dinner party Andy and I made a mad dash for the Craft Warehouse down the street from the restaurant. They were 10 minutes from closing when we got there. We raised around the store trying to find a book that would work for what I have in my mind. No small feat if you know my brain. I settled on a spiral bound 6x9 sketch book. The only drawback is that the cover is this horrible brown color and will need to be covered. Oh, well I was probably going to alter it anyway. LOL! I am just happy to be taking this class and hope that I make time to enjoy it and actually finish. I am planning on decorating the cover today!

Peace, Love, & knitting needles*
