Speaking of Christmas in July
OK, so I missed July and skipped straight through to September *grin* I thought it was time to start organizing my projects for Christmas gifts. This year Christmas will be in New York at my folks house, so I have a few extra little gifts I'll need to make for people. My baby sister is also pregnant and due sometime around Thanksgiving. So, here is my attempt at getting organized *yeah, I know, scary isn't*

Aren't you afraid that your family will read your blog and no longer be surprised?
I hope you have no plans from now to about December 24th, including sleep. That is quite a to do list!!!!!
You say blog to anyone in my family and htey would just think you said blob and wonder what the hell I was talking about :)
You are very "energetic" in your goals. Of course, you can get it done.
Have a great day.

You can do it! use all that stash yarn so we can go on a spree after the New Year! :)
So, exactly when will you be sleeping?
I'll be sleeping after Christmas :)
You should see the world's fastest knitter on the knitpick's YouTube video - hilarious! Cannot wait to see picks of the christening gown! I bet it will be beautiful!
