december 2
Wednesday, December 02, 2009Hello December.
I'm really not certain how it rolled around so fast again. It seems like I just packed this advent away. I was happy to pull it out and place it on the white wall. In the newly painted white kitchen. It doesn't seem busy to me like it did last year. I'm assuming it is the white wall.
Although I really miss my baby, all is good on the photo front. I used shakeitphoto while away visiting my parents for my 365 project. If you have an iphone, check it out. It takes some pretty cool photos. This one makes me happy. I also found my old point and shoot that the kids have been using. Easy peasy to use. And I got to borrow my sisters Nikon D60 to take our Christmas card photo. No hand knit sweaters for the photo. I initially wanted to have the oona hoodie finished for Libby to wear, but that didn't happen. And that's okay. It's all okay.
Happy December.

Good outlook you have there; love the advent calendar, did you knit it? Oh, and my blog is now private due to an ex-husband so if you want to read it, email me at knitblogger@cox.net and I'll add you on.
ReplyDeleteSweet advent. I know what you mean by the holidays coming around so quickly again. I feel like I just tucked the boxes in the closet downstairs. What is with that? ~Kelly

Never mind, I followed the link to answer my question. Now I want to buy the pattern even though it's unlikely I'll knit it. Although maybe a summer project?? Hmmm

I'm not a photographer - which is probably why I don't have a blog! - but I have to say I like the shakeitphotos I'm seeing on your blog and elsewhere; they're uber-cool. And, it's certainly reflective of your life right now in this moment so it suits the 365 project nicely!
