Happy Friday!!

Fridays make me so happy, especially when I have the following Monday off. Having worked during the weekends for a good portion of my working "career" makes you appreciate working M-F.

Summer is winding down slowly and I can honestly say that this has been the best Summer to date. I was able to go on a couple of vactions and spend lots of time with my friends, family, and SO. I'm sad to see the sun setting earlier and earlier and the weather turning chilly. I love Fall though, because Fall comes with cute clothes and everything pumpkin!

Even though it is August 19th, stores are already displaying Halloween and Christmas things. I am moving back home at the end of September which means that I'll have a little more $$$ for the holidays but no more decorating my tiny space of my own. It's a bittersweat feeling.

I been crocheting a bit more and am excited to say that I've finally become okay at it. I don't want to toot my own horn but the things I'm making look really cute! It's one thing to look at your work and see what it is, but it's another thing when you show someone your project and they are really impressed with what you've done. The first thing I made was a wonky cellphone/mp3 case that was too small and crooked to hold anything. The 2nd thing I made was a scarf from scraps that I gave to my niece. This is what I'm working on now and the thing I'm most proud of


It seems like everyone will be getting handmade things this holiday. Sorry in advance to everyone for your crocheted hats, scarves, cellphone cases, ponchos, doillies, washclothes, and everything else yarny.
