Bleary Sunday Evening

Hi Everyone, if this was New Years Day, I would be saying "I must Blog more!!", but its not, so I' ll have to try and improve on that. You know what its like, especially as a knitter, you check the email, look at other blogs, then find a great knitting site online...and a kntting deal on line...and before you know it 2 hours have gone by...and no knitting!!
What I really wanted to say on this blog today, is if you have young children, or even no children, you should go and see Happy Feet!! I took my 4 yr old son on Friday afternoon to see it, and all I can say is it is magical, and it teaches children a valuable lesson.
Currently working on the Mason-Dixon log cabin blanket, in Merino Superwash by Mission Falls (beautiful yarn!!!!) The colours offered are superb, but since there are so many colours in a log cabin blanket, I don't have to choose!!
I am STILL waiting for that blogging book from the library, so that I can add pictures.
ANYONE out there who can send me instructions, I would be appreciative, as well as anyone who has information on where I can sign up for a secret swap pal, or a knitalong!!?? Also appreciated.
Chat soon!

Fallen Off the Edge of the Earth??

Hi!
I am still here, just haven't posted since I have been away....I was in Arizona by the way...as I have been soooo busy, I haven't had a chance to do lots of things!! Tis the time of year when everyone wants their floors done before Christmas visitors arrive, so I am spending a lot of time at the office.
I have 1 week left of my knitting class. I have completed the cardigan sweater for the class, with the exception of sewing up the arms, putting on the buttons, and completing the collar.
It looks pretty good I must say. It is a Sirdar pattern in Denim Ultra. I'll post a pic when it is completed.
Here's the thing...I have a library book on hold on how to actually work a blog, but of course I have been the next on the list for about a month! I thought by now I would have had a grasp on how to add pictures and little sidebars etc, but so is not yet the case! Soooooon!!!
So look out, there is sure to be a lot of trial and error coming up on this blog, and probably a heck of a lot of pictures!!
Rainy and dull here today, the perfect afternoon for knitting...don't need to tell me twice!!
TTFN!
