Christmastime is here.....
And it is kicking my bee-hind! Have you noticed the severe lack of posts?!
Busy, friends, busy...... Ugh. Well the Xmas shopping is done short of 3 small items I will pick up tonight and tomorrow morning. YES! I feel very accomplished as I have made almost all of my gifts and been very reasonable in my spending for the gifts that I have bought. Absolootly Faboo Xmas stockings shall be had! Weeeeee!
I am working on Bobbi Bear #2 at the moment and feverishly kitting up Skully's second sleeve..... I am hoping to get that done this weekend so it can get a-blockin'. Mr. Skully doe not have a holiday deadline, but I would like him complete in time for our anniversary. Of course, if he is complete by Xmas.... how can I resist giving the Bune something more to unwrap??? Hmmm..... We'll see.
I'd have to say that I am getting quite antsy with all this knitting for others.... I have to admit that I am feeling a little ... jealous. There I said it. Does this happe to anyone else? I feel awful admitting it, but I have so many patterns I want to work on for little ol' moi that I am DYING to get going. I have a feeling that my post-Xmas month will include absolutely NO knitting for others.
Mwah Ha Ha Ha Ha...ha....
I am so mean. I can't help it. Knitting for others is so fun at first. But when you have knit for others for 6 weeks solid? Maybe I am just a selfish knitter, but I feel I've been neglected at that point. By myself... hmph.
Anyhoo, I will have some updated pics sometime this weekend - I just wanted to post to say I am still alive, even if I am buried under a pile of other people's knitted gifts.
I'll feel more accomplished after this weekend when I send out a few of my first prezzies.... Let's get this stuff out of my house, I say!!!!!

I can understand the guilt feeling about wanting to knit for yourself. I kinda felt that way when I found out that so many people are giving mostly knitted gifts, whereas I resisted for quite a while before caving and deciding to do two. It's your hobby, your leisure time, your work and your money, so should feel entitled to make things for yourself!
