Another lovely day!

Had a lovely day today, slept in a little bit, chatted on the phone with Bestie Lisa AGAIN, chatted with my Mum AGAIN... played outside with the kids AGAIN.... hmmm... I'm seeing a trend!!!  I DID go yarn shopping ( whoo hoo!!) and picked out lovely yarn for the hat and the socks I'm determined to make!  I also bought a book on Amazon today on sock making so once that gets here I'm going to get started on them!  I also bought some yarn to make a scarf for the participants in this year's Special Olympics!  I've already made a good start on it and it's coming along nicely!  Got to LOVE crochet for a quick do!! ;D (I'll try and get some pics posted tomorrow... I always leave blog writing until last thing at night and then am too tired to upload pics!  )

We had a delicious dinner, watched some TV together and then the kiddies went off to bed.  Now it's time for hubby and I to cuddle up on the couch together and watch a good old fashioned British Murder Mystery.  How romantic!! ;D

So Missy...what exactly is your idea of sleeping in a bit? I am trying to figure out how you fit all this into one day and it is only 10 pm...and how on earth do you get your kids to bed this early. You never cease to impress me.

I want this sock knitting book http://www.knitpicks.com/books/Toe_Up_2-at-a-Time_Socks__D31442.html . Which one did you get? I still haven't been brave enough to knit a sock, lol!

Shawn.... um.... I can't remember which one I ordered now!!!! I looked at so many!! ;D I really REALLY want to do the toe up 2 at a time method but the comments seemed to suggest it would be tricky for a newbie and when I read the sample pages they seemed a bit confusing!! :D I am really nervous to try socks, crazy isn't it?!? But my local wool shop has classes three times a week for socks and I could always drop in with questions too!!! Can't wait to get my book and get started though!! ;D
