I love the mittens! And I can totally relate to the sweater woes. This is just your Sockapal000za pal checking in to let you know that your socks have been started and I haven't forgotten about you even though I haven't commented in a while. When are you going to Italy? I was just on a brief vacation but it wasn't nearly as exotic as going to Italy.

Wow, your trip sounds fantastic ... the best vacation I can hope for this year is a trip to Disneyland with a friend to celebrate her birthday. But hey! that's okay, I love Disneyland! It sounds like with all your schoolwork, you deserve to do a bit of relaxing and exploring. I worked on your socks last night ... it's fun to work on them and imagine you opening the package when they come to you. This is the first exchange that I have ever done and I am excited to have you get your socks!

hey don't worry about language with this blog friend ... i am one of the original potty mouth girls especially when i am among my friends! i try hard not to use it on my blog (which you'll see someday) because i work with teenage girls and i have given them the address to it, but when i'm among my peers, watch out! i'm looking forward to the reveal in a big way, and i think only have a little over a month to go!

ok, now for a knitting update :) i know thats what you really wanted to see. here are the contents of the sockpalOOOza package that goes out in one week. i am so excited! counterclockwise from lower left: there is a sock tote for her to use the next time she knits a pair of socks, the socks, postits. my favorite way to mark patterns, a card telling her all about her socks, a postcard of longs peak to show where i'm from, a birthday card fror her to share with a knitting friend on a special day, and stitch markers. yeay! i love presents! i can't wait to mail this! and on to current knitting... so a few weeks ago i went down to highlands ranch for the Littleton meetup, i went next door to string to do a yarn exchange. thats like free yarn you know. and picked up 7 balls of this elsabeth lavold sily wool. ooooh. wonderful yarn! i know, there are only 4 in the photo. thats because my italy cardigain is well under way. 2 balls in i just stared the third and i love love love this y...

so much to do!

with only a few days to relax. a trip to the beach turns into a blur of "i just want to sit here" mixed with "but we have to do this too" so several days worth of photos divided into day parts. cause really it is all running together :) think sandra bullock from that movie premonition where the days are out of order...but nobody's gonna die. sunrise: over the ocean. after waking up early not feeling well from a late night out with the family. i took one for the team ad finished the wine...don't do that. not good. i ran the 2 blocks to the boardwalk and over the dunes to the water to get these couple of shots. seagulls and beachcombers are your only company when it's this early! i've never seen so many mussel shells when it wasn't after dinner. midday: on the boardwalk. after the beach you go to the boardwalk to grab lunch at mack and mancos. apparently the best pizza ever. i'm not convinced. but heck i don't really get the wa...
