Man, I cannot wait until the weather stops being crazy. Rain all week long, now it's cold. Cold and damp. We wanted to go camping this weekend, too! Blah. Well, I suppose it gives me more time to knit!
I'm working on a blanket for my sister-in-law. She's having her last baby, so I figured I'd make her something special. I am looking forward to finishing it so that I can start other projects.
Speaking of other projects... It has occured to me that I would like to do some charity work. I guess it's sort of a pull to give back to my community. So I have a friend at one of the hospitals and asked him to look into their charity programs, if any. I want to knit hats for cancer patients, children, or pretty much anyone who could use a little extra comfort and love. I honestly cant think of a better way to put my knitting to use. From the sound of it, no one around here has done anything like that, unless the people he asked just dont know about it.. But I would love to go around the halls with him, a box of hats in hand, walking into rooms and saying "Happy Hat Day."
So, that has been on my mind, and my heart for awhile. I hope to put it in motion soon!!
Another thing I've been excited about is getting married!! We are having our wedding in the first week of September, and I'm super excited! I have dresses picked out for my daughter and I (they practically match! Eee!) and bought the dresses for my bridesmaids on Wednesday :) I found them at work (I work at a Kohl's Dept Store) and got them super cheap! $20 a piece! I couldnt pass them up.
Anyhow, I have a lot on my mind, and things keeping me busy. I cant wait to get started on my hat day projects and wedding planning :)
It's going to be fun! Yay!!
