Mcknitter: A Tropical Paradise Awaits Me

Thanks for the well wishes. You guys really cheered me up! I am in a much better mood today. After reading my last post I decided to do something about my funk, so I got up and cleaned the house up and even baked a cheesecake. We were going to a friend’s house for dinner and I can’t show up empty handed! I’m sure my better mood also has something to do with us going to The Keys in Oct.

Um…Yea that definitely helps!! We were at my Boss’s house last night and they let me in on what the “details” of my job include. They have to go to a wedding there in Oct and wanted to know if the hubby and I can come along and help keep an eye on their 3 month old. He’s a sweetheart and I’m totally not worried about that. So cool!! We are so excited. We will be staying in a beach house in Islamorada. We have never been there but have been planning to go.

So I finally got my email for Secret Pal 11 signups and I’m in! I can’t wait. There is also a contest going on to design a button. I have never made a button before but I decided to give it a shot. What do you think?

I happen to like the one on the bottom. In the backround of the first button is Alice’s Garden from White Willow. The button on the bottom features my first Jaywalker sock. Love those colors!

I have not touched my knitting since the last post. I have been busy. I will probably work some more on the Big Bad Baby Blanket and Purple Eater sock this weekend. I don't know if I want to continue with the Horcrux Socks. I haven't decided if I like worsted weight socks yet.

And to leave you with a smile on your face I have a picture of Jessie.
