It's December! My favorite month of the year. The last month of the year. Time goes so quickly. This year I fit under the category, senior citizen. I don't feel like a senior. My health hasn't been great this year. Nothing life threatening though. So my studies in pharmacy will have to be put on a back shelf. I cannot stand for long periods of time. So I'm busy knitting. Knitting for Christmas. I hope I will be ready for Christmas.I have two new puppies in my family. They are keeping me busy. They will be twelve weeks old on Sunday and getting big. I should knit winter coats for them, for the cold weather. So pick up your needles or you crochet hook and begin a project for the holiday season. Happy Knitting, Merry Christmas.

It's almost the end of August. I've been busy crocheting puppets and knitting sweaters, one for my sister and baby sweaters. School will be here next week. I have just one child finishing high school. Where did the time go?? They say the days are long but the years are short. Think about it. I think life goes faster when you are older. I'm thinking about starting up a knitting circle, stitch and b-----. Sound like a good idea? Please send me a comment, if you think this would be fun. Maybe every Wednesday night, bring a pattern to share and your own project whether it's crocheting or knitting. Just a thought!! Happy Fall and Happy Knitting.

Happy Canada Day. The summer is here. I've been busy doing needlepoint along with knitting a sweater for my favorite sister. It's cold in Calgary. Everyday I am grateful for my grandfather who taught me how to knit. Then my mother continues to keep me interested. My Mom is 86 and she still is knitting. It's like a drug. I'm addicted. I don't go a day without knitting something or doing my needlepoint. So pick up those needles and get started on a project. Happy Knitting!
