Blessed and Grateful

Good Morning Friends.

It's early and I really should be heading for the shower to get ready for work. As another week has begun, another day passes and with it, we are nearly through February. WOW, where does the time go?

Greg and I are both busy with work, the kids are busy with work, and/or school. Kelsie's report card was FABULOUS, and as a result she won a raffle at school and received a Flip HighDef video camera. She's thrilled. Kristy's been doing well and has been taken off her meds, and Steven is prepping to leave for basic training. My babies are growing up. How blessed I am to have them in my life. The opportunities they have given me for personal growth is amazing. Children bring so much to a life in so many ways. I'm excited for them and the oportunities that they have.

Work is good. We've been swamped...enough said. Now, for the good stuff....

Off my needles - Greg's sweater vest is COMPLETE! Yes I finally made it. He got it on Sunday evening. It's beautiful. I can see I still have a few things to learn, and I probably should have blocked it, and I suppose I can still do that, but I have to get some stuff to do that. I've taken pictures but am waiting for the Kid to send them to me for posting. You will just have to wait a bit.

On my needles - I am still working on my afghan, and I still have a self ruffling scarf to complete. Both of which are seriously nearing completion. I will have to look into something else to knit. I do have a pair of socks I want to do.

In hand - I'm still working on the Round Zipper. I'm nearly finished with part 2. I hope to break that out again soon. I also have a Loose Feather's project I'm working on and will post details and pics soon. Nothing finished on the Cross Stitch side of life to report.
