The little imp is having a birthday and he’s just so excited!  He got up this morning ready to go.  Moooommmmm.

Everyone but the new groom got to come for breakfast.

He got a new camera.

I can’t get the youtube to work so maybe later.

He’s having a great day. 

And then it was my turn!!!!!

I got a great surprise today….my first sp12 package.  I have to say, I have a great pal.  She’s had a lot going on in her life and she still took time to make this a perfect gift for me!  She said in her card that it was a little bit “her” and hopefully a lot “me”.  She nailed it!

She had the packages numbered and she explained a little bit, but then said everything got a little loopy.  She was right.

My very own Loopy Ewe!  I thought he was a great addition to my sheep collection!

I got a Loopy Ewe needle felting kit, Loopy himself, the all important chocolate, some note cards and the premier issue of Verena…a European knitting magazine.  I love it all!

Thank you so much, Think Pink Pal….it really means a lot, especially when I know your life has felt so topsy-turvy.  I look forward to getting to know you even more after the swap is over!

What is your favorite type of project to take along on holiday/vacation?

Socks!  I do knit other things while away, but socks are the most portable and most mindless project.

Tell us about a time that you packed too much knitting or were stranded without knitting

I don’t have any funny stories about this but I find that I never figure it out right.  I have had times in the RV where I’ve filled the whole closet with knitting….yarn, books, needles, etc and not had what I needed.  I’ve had times where I only took specific projects in the hopes of being forced to work on them….but I always find a way to get to a yarn store and get something else.  There’s just no predicting.
