Goodbye 2009

Well here it is almost the end of another year and I am doing what I usually do just a few days before Christmas…trying to finish off some projects in time for Christmas. Something I keep saying I will avoid by starting earlier…and never do. *sigh* Well maybe next year?


I did plan on knitting a bag for my mothers’ wheelchair and did start it. But then she went out and bought herself 2 bags for her chair even though she knew I was going to make one so plans changed. It’s good in one way because it takes some pressure off to get it done on time for Christmas so I will finish it for her birthday instead which is in June. Knitted a hat for my son and just have to put the Goomba (a Mario brothers game character) face on it and it’s done. Now I am working on a plastic canvas envelope for my father to keep his lottery tickets in. Should be able to do that before Christmas gets here…hopefully.


Looking back on this past year I think I have accomplished quite a bit. Actually finished many projects…crocheted 2 vests and almost done with another. Crocheted a bag, a tank top and most of a cardigan. Knitted a pullover, a pair of slippers and a hat. I’ll count the plastic canvas envelope in here too because it will be done soon. Of course I have MANY, many projects lined up for 2010 already as well as some to finish up from last year. Must work on depleting my stash. Working in a yarn shop where new yarns are constantly coming in does not help with my stash addiction. But I love it!


This coming year I look forward to moving. Santa, I want a new apartment in 2010! Of course I am also looking forward to losing weight. HEY, what is a New Years resolution without that one? As usual, I hope that this coming year is a big improvement over previous years for all of us.


Merry Christmas!
