First Monday of the year

Well, its the first monday of the year and I'm kinda lost. I got through the 178 emails and am now digging into a few things from my notes but I really can't remember what the notes are about.

I have some training to do and the system keeps stalling on it.

I will have to wait until tomorrow to pick up more yarn for mel's water bottle cozy. Grandma's is closed Sun/Monday. Sigh. I was hoping to finish that before knit night...might still be able to if I hurry.

I'm still sick. I slept until 1030 am yesterday and then spent most of the day on the couch. My highlight of the day was a trip to walgreens and the grocer. I can breathe better now due to inhaler refill (thanks dverning!) and I made fruit cake but that was it. I was so tired.

I did finish a test hat to see if I liked the pattern for my mom. I don't like if for her but its a cute hat.


I used some left over yarns but feel that this pattern will probably go better with a solid color. Anybody need a hat? Its a bit small on me.

I got my gulf wars registration in and was thinking...I could possibly teach at all 3 major wars this year if I can swing the PTO. Hmmmm...very tempting. Well, off to a meeting...maybe then I can remember stuff.

Goals for 2010

Last year I set myself some goals and I met almost all of them minus one (making buttermilk biscuits) so that will get added to this year's goals.

1. Learn to spin (better)
2. Learn to knit socks
3. Perfect homemade mac and cheese
4. Bike in El Tour Again
5. Learn to knit Elizabeth Zimmerman's Surprise Jacket
6. Learn to make buttermilk biscuits
7. Teach something at Griffin Dyeworks Retreat

Pretty simple and fun things but yanno...its lot of work to and that is okay.
