Yup, my life has been pretty boring lately. It’s finals season and I’m trying in vain to focus on getting my work done… it’s not going that well, heh. Hopefully I won’t end up with too many all-nighters before it’s all done.

Definitely haven’t been knitting since I finished the Rose Wristwarmers. I’ve added a few rows to the Ariel Scarf since it’s supposed to be done for a birthday party on the 15th but I don’t think that’s going to happen, and it will be late Oh well.

I did a bunch of yarn shopping over Thanksgiving weekend, much to my dismay! I bought some Moda Dea Tweedle-Dee that was on sale at Michaels, which will hopefully be enough for Cherie Amour, and a bunch of Vanna’s Choice in “Midnight” which I intend to use for the Totally Autumn Throw.  I know the latter isn’t the best choice, it being a cheap acrylic and all, but I wanted to see how the yarn was (and hey, it was cheap), and I do like the color a lot. So we’ll see.

Other than that… yup, finals. It’s been very hard to focus with the construction taking up half of the house, it’s very distracting and doesn’t leave me much place to work with all the junk we normally store in those parts of the house taking up space in the livable parts. I’m also a bit depressed that the mess means we haven’t taken out any Christmas decorations, and probably won’t be for a while. ESPECIALLY because of the weather lately… it’s been snowing a lot. Not that it’s accumulating on the ground, but there’s been flurries almost every day this week that I can remember, and it’s sticking a bit giving the powdered sugar effect which would look lovely with Christmas lights out, and all. Plus the chances of having a White Christmas this year I suppose are a lot higher than normal, giving this (not like the past few years where days in December have pushed 70 degrees!)

Better keep plugging… just wanted to update for my own piece of mind.
