Exciting knitting and Oh so Festive Christmas Tree lights
Wow, don't anyone faint, I actually have a picture of knitting. It is very lame, but it is knitting! It is cold here in Sunny CA (below freezing last night) so I decided I needed a cowl. Translation - 8 inches of knitting in the round with a bit of ribbing on the ends. Hey did I hear a Yawn! Hmmph! You'll all be jealous when my neck is nice and warm in this simple but oh so stylish accessory :-) Seriously I want to get back in the swing of things knitting wise. At least enough to post some progress once in awhile.
Esther was VERY excited to see this in the morning. These are actually pastel lights I picked up on clearance at Target once for a baby shower. Now they serve as protection, to keep the potted trees warm on the rare occasion it freezes here. I put them on after Esther went to bed and she was delighted to see them in the morning. I did have a minor mishap. One of the pots had a crack in it. Well, when I tried to move it closer to the house and outlet a large hunk of cement like material landed on my toe! OOOOOUCH! The wierd thing is it still hurts but it doesn't LOOK hurt at All! Fortunately the soil stayed molded the way it was in the pot. This afternoon I decided to take the tacky route and duct tape it back together. I'm not searching High and Lo to pay a premium price for a pot this size! I'm hoping I can find one on sale at a garage sale or on Craigslist. I think I'll try to get one of the fake stone ones though....That is my Toe's vote anyway.
Oh Christmas Tree?
