Where has the year gone?

It's the middle of October already and my thought to at least blog once a month never really got off the ground.

We got a kitten and I am not sure why. Meet Oliver, age 3 months, rambunctious as a todder...

Dad bought me a Nook and Kimi a Kindle for 'Christmas' but we of course got them early. I am thoroughly enjoying mine and Kimi's been reading much more than she ever has before so I would have to say both gifts are a hit. I especially like being able to download library books since buying books can get very expensive.

I've been knitting Christmas gifts for the family and have almost finished my list. Just a few more things left to make. I'm currently working on a sweater for Kimi and a hooded cape for my friend's niece which are both known and so can be mentioned here.

My Rav news: I am having loads of fun in the HPKCHC group. I've met so many wonderful people there and they encourage my crafty habits. One of my friends there 'enabled' me to buy a skein of Wollmeise and I am anxiously awaiting it's arrival.
