Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

A boob a day will help get you fat.
So we baked santa cookies last night. Santa got chocolate chip (no booze). I did decided to add a few dark chocolate Hershey's Kisses. Well, and they came out as boobies which may garner more favor than booze cookies.
And through the wine to keep me relaxed and the coffee to keep me awake, I finished the shawl. I didn't even stay up late but I really am a daylight person and feel so sluggish this time of year. so without further ado - this is the little shawl that seemed to take forever (it really wouldn't have taken that long had I steadily worked on it)
And a close-up
Now that its done I am working at finishing dad's final sock and then move on to Sonnet sleeves. I got my 30 skeins of lambs pride in and am dying to start on a new sweater. But I also know that my mom got me a Noro pattern book with a pretty pattern for some Noro yarn I splurged on a ways back. So many sweaters. My mom also wants a pair of booger pickin gloves but they only take a day or 2. oh, and of course a replacement pair of slippers. I wasn't too upset about it. Thank you for the sentiment over my lost handiwork, if it had been my wool peacoat we might be having a doggie funeral (just kidding). I love that dog despite her goat-ness.
I was just interupted by my daughter. She has decided to decorate her bedroom walls with crayons and markers. I had painted part of her room pink and hand painted flowers all over it, the parts that were left white had furniture in front of them or were up higher. The pink is washable, white is not. Yes, she colored on the white. She climbed over furniture and wrote in the spaces of white that she could reach. Now she's sitting in the corner. Kind of a ballsy thing to do on Christmas Eve day don't ya think?
MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HANUKKAH, HAPPY KWANZA and for everyone else HAVE A GREAT WHATEVER or just HAVE A NICE DAY. I'm off to go make chocolate ship cheesecakes for my in-laws and for the post office (they are so nice to me). And i still need to finish up cookies for Mrs Claus *wink*
