I Always Feel Like Somebody's Watching Me

I know you're there, I can see you. You're sitting there peeking into my world. Trying to see if the grass is greener on the other side or possibly just trying to get to know me by hanging around in the distance, trying to keep your identity hidden. Well it's time to come out and tell me who you are. I'm curious.....

1. Who are you?
2. Where are you from?
3. Do you have a blog too?
4. What are your thoughts?
5. What do we have in common?

So go ahead, leave me a comment. Inquiring minds want to know. It's okay, I don't bite. And besides that, you don't want my cat to go hungry do you?

UTI's Suck

I have been feeling under the weather for about a week so, I decided to go to the doctor yesterday morning. I explained my symptoms to my doctor and he did a urinalysis and it was positive for a UTI (urinary track infection). I went ahead and went to work afterwards, but I was miserable all day and by the time I got home it was all I could do to eat dinner. After dinner I went straight to bed and turned a movie on and I think I remember watching about the first 15 minutes of it before I fell asleep. Thank goodness I am feeling better today.

Now I Can Relax

I left the first weekend of January for a week long class on Life & Health Insurance and I spent all of last week studying for the exam. I took the exam today and I passed! Now I can relax and have some fun.

Speaking of fun, I have been working on the Irish Hiking Scarf with the purple alpaca yarn India sent me. I didn't realize how easy cabling was. Take a look at my progress.

Here is a picture of the crocheted afghan I have been working on. This is going to be one of those projects that I work on a little here and a little there. My attention span won't allow me to just sit and work on it until its done.
Now maybe I can get back to some knitting adventures now that I have completed all my studies.

I almost forgot! I joined the local gym and I have been working out 6 days a week using the "Body For Life" plan. So far it is working and I have lost 2 inches from my waistline. Goodbye size 16, here I come size 8!

Welcome To My Wonderland

It's Christmas all over again! This is what I woke up to... and then it gets better. I got a parcel from my SP9! Look at what she sent me. The yarn is just fab and super soft and I love the color. I am definately going to try the Irish Hiking Scarf pattern using this yarn. She also sent some note cards, cable needles, a comic book, lotion, some salt scrub, some beads and some yummy butter tablet. I have to say the butter tablet she made is ten times better than the store bought tablet she sent to me last time. I might have to get the recipe for this...its soooo good. Thank You India!
