Life

January 12, 2009

The world seems to be coming at me really fast these days. So much happening.

Knitting, I finished my February Lady Sweater. Lots of compliments while wearing it today.  D’s socks are fitting this far.

We had a great Secret Santa with my knitting group last week. We decided to do it in January and it was really fun. My secret Santa got me a book I really wanted, Knitting Socks with Handpainted Yarns. She also gifted me with 2 skeins of handpainted sock yarn it’s the one called Damsel on this page, but it’s much pinker in the dye lot that I now have.  Kim, thank you again. I will take pictures in daylight sometime to show the yarn really well. It’s very pretty and soft.

The book was handed around the group and there are a lot of patterns that willbe knitted around the table I think. Have a look for yourself sometime!

What else. We’re getting back into snowboarding season again. We booked tickets and a hotel in Aspen for February 10-15 (time for the SES again). We did a bit of a photoshoot at MSLM this weekend

img_0464-croppedAmazing what cropping out everyone else in an image will do for the centre of attention!

That’s all for now.

Quick question – can you see the links I’ve put into this post? There are four. I noticed the other day that in this template the linked text is not really visible. Perhaps I should change my template?

  1. I can see the links, but just barely. They colour difference is pretty subtle.

    The links could be more visible. I didn’t really notice them until I rolled over the text with my mouse.

    Looking good on the slopes!
