Let's be honest....

My blog schedule that I worked so hard on (right!) and thought so much about (uh-huh!) is slight askew!!

So, please bear with me while I try to get things back on track, sometimes you might see two posts in a day, but I promise it will all work out!  haha

Blocks 4, 5, 6....

....or how I spent my Saturday afternoon.

Ornament Swap Love!

I participated in a mini swap in my Seasonal Swap group on Ravelry and these are the ones I got back!  Aren't they delightful?  I think we're going to do a mini swap each holiday if you want to join us!

The Santa hat with knitting needles is from Anna....the matroshyka (Russian nesting doll) is from Sarah....and the red mitten is from Gizella.  I honestly love them all and will be so happy each year when I pull them out to put on the tree :)

Bookworm Wednesday!

In the early 1900's becoming a wife and a mother were still high up on most women's ultimate life to-do lists. So what happens when that doesn't always happen the way that it is supposed to? Well, The Doctor & The Diva explores the relationship between an opera singer and the doctor that is supposed to be helping her have a child. Now, add a potentially very jealous husband to that mix and you're in for an interesting story.

Another Saturday photo share....

El finally found out I left some quilt batting in the chair from when I was basting stuff the other day.

My kind of Saturday....

....is a jeans and thermal kind of Saturday.

Yep.

Usually by now I've got two or three trees up, stockings everywhere, all my holiday bakeware set out, etc....this year though?  I'm having a hard time getting into the spirit of the season.  Today I did what will probably be the extent of my decorating....voila, two minutes later I have my mini tree out.  It only took two minute because this tree stays fluffed out with lights on it in the closet.  The red mitten ornament is the first I received from the mini swap I was in over on Ravelry.  Anyone want to exchange cards and maybe get me a little more in the Christmas spirit? 

For now, though, I will sit with the lights off staring at the pretty lights...
