Here I come to save the day~

Capelet - Done!! And it looks great. I've decided to wear it on my trip when we go to a play on Wednesday night. These are pics of the front and back. Next up - socks using the Magic Loop method. I went to the Gourmet Yarn on Friday and Melissa turned me onto this cool new method - or at least new to me. I'm hoping to cast on and start tonight. I also bought the right double points just in case Magic Loop is TOO advanced for me. I'm using a pattern called "Crusoe" found at this website. It reminds me of the DW washcloths.

Today I packed my suitcase and carry on bag for a mock run through of when I leave for Sunday. I've been making a list of things to take for the past 3 weeks and I decided I should make sure that I could pack everything in the space I had that I wanted to take. So far so good. I then unpacked everything and made a list of all of the things I had packed so I won't forget anything when I pack Saturday night. Make sense? Now I just have to make sure everything is clean by Saturday so I can pack it all.

Also, last Friday, when I went shopping, I bought a pair of casual slacks, a simple black exercise jacket and three new books for my trip. The books are "Night", "The Myth of You and Me", and "The Doctor's Wife". I can't wait to start on these! Friday night I went to a scapbooking party and finshed 6 pages. I was very impressed with myself. lol I'll be so happy when I'm finally caught up. I know I don't have it as bad as some of the ladies - there is one who is still working on 1994! I love working on my scrapbook stuff; it is such a creative release for me with a quick visual reward. I have definitely seen my creativity grow over the past 5 years that I have been scrapbooking.

Not much else going on here. I've been off for 4 days and it has been fabulous!! It always surprises me how much can happen in 4 days.

Now the question is: What's for supper?
