That's right folks! I received One-Skein Wonders today!! Julie: you're effing amazing! Thank you! Thank you! Christmas is awesome!

Now, what shall I knit you first? hmm....

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.
