Not Knitting

I haven't been knitting. But here's what I've been doing:

  • Baking cookies. 1 batch each: sugar cookies, Russian tea cakes, chocolate walnut meringues
  • Buying presents. Mostly done. A few details.
  • Wrapping presents
  • Rocking out to music that no one will ever admit they like, but deep down everyone loves it. Example: In a car on Friday night, Britney Spears Toxic comes on. A guy in the car (no not Hubby. not even a relative) declares, "This is my favorite Britney Spears song." Everyone in car agrees. I've been listening to: Fergilicious. I can't help myself. "I put them boys on ROCK, ROCK!"
  • Boxing packages for far off relatives
  • Finishing up Hubby's gifts that required my crafting skills
  • Going to Hubby's company Christmas party. Boston harbor cruise. Much fun!
  • Arranging pine centerpieces with orange pomanders
  • Making the ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS CD: Santa Baby, Brenda Lee's Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, All I Want for Christmas is You (Yes, the Mariah Carey version. I can't help myself.)
That sweater will get done and so will the fingerless gloves, socks, scarves and mittens. I'm just not going to sacrifice all the Christmas fun to do it.

Hey busy lady! I found a weaving store here. Can you believe it? I never tried searching for weaving stores. I checked it out and it seems cool. I bought some soysilk while I was there. I think that I am going to crochet it, but haven't decided.

I'm Fergalicious. (its the ring on my phone right now)

And toxic is also my favorite Britney song.

Although... I do BLAST "Stronger" when I feel like belting out "Stronger than yesterday Now it’s nothing but my way"

Poor Brit Brit.

I'm Haddylicious. I have been since 1999. I have the screenname to prove it.

I haven't been brave enough to get the ringtone. Soon, soon...
