On to new things.....

I'm still working on my swirl socks in a Dancing color way I had bought on clearance a year or so ago from KnitPicks. I am working on getting both socks the same length so that I can work on both of them at the same time using the magic loop method.

At our last Purlin' Peaches meeting, Mrs. Hazel and I went to Creative Yarns where I purchased the BSJ (baby surprise jacket) pattern to try out. I have been wanting to make a sweater for sometime now and I think I may can handle this one due to being all knit in one piece. We have another lady at work expecting now so maybe I can get this test run knit in time to possibly knit one for her little one if all goes well.

I'm also working on a mitered square blanket from a past creative knitting magazine for G as a throw for when its cool during the winter. It has become a great stash buster. I have several small balls of yarn that I can get rid of now.

I am still enjoying my job at the bank; however I will be learning more things about my jobs as I get the work caught up that I already know how to do. I have some things that I should be doing daily but due to the circumstances around the lady leaving that I replaced I have had a lot of catch up work to do. I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel which means I will be able to take on more of my responsibilities of my position. My supervisors and I will also be getting an assistant as soon as we can find someone to fill her position in the bookkeeping department. I can't wait to work closer with S; she has such a great personality. I think it will be a smooth transition for all of us.

I hope to get some pictures up by next week. My dad informed me over the weekend that I could borrow a camera of his that he no longer uses so I could take pictures for my blog. I may go get it sometime this week or either use G's digital camera until we can get me a replacement.


Thanfuls:
1. I am thankful for the ability to do things for others.
2. I am thankful for sunny spring days.
3. I am thankful for cookies.
