10 On Tuesday

Wow - it's been almost a month since I posted.  Time is flying and life is, well - kinda chaotic right now.  We will tackle all that in another post though.  For today it's all about 10 Things I Did This Weekend.

1.  I celebrated my birthday.  I love that it usually falls on a three day weekend so I can celebrate longer!

2.  I procrastinated.  A lot.  My house is a disaster and nothing on my to do list got done.  But it was my birthday so I didn't care.

3.  I did knit.  Not as much as I thought I would though.

4.  I cursed the weather.  At least till Sunday afternoon.  The sun finally came out but it was windy and still felt like winter.

5.  I bought myself a birthday present.

A matching iPhone and iPad case.  I'm like a little kid sometimes.

6.  Went to the dog park.  Poor Mowgli was getting a bit cooped up after those few rainy days and needed to go run with some friends.

7.  Went to dinner.  Of course - another part of my birthday celebration.

8.  Hung my laundry out for the first time this year.  OK - so not such a big deal but I was happy when I brought them in and they smelled like Spring!

9.  Opened up a great gift from my favorite Aunt.

I can't wait to really look through it.

10.  I relaxed.  Without any guilt!

Yarn Along

Time to join Ginny for the Wednesday yarn fun.  I have one baby blanket on the needles almost ready to be bound off.  Since it's a gift I won't show you until it gets to it's final destination.  The baby blanket I was crocheting did make it to the recipient and I can give you a peek at that.

I loved working on this blanket.  It went so fast and it was incredibly soft.

As a spinner I tend to dislike acrylic yarn, but it does have it's uses and for baby items it's a match.  Easy to wash, not much fear of allergies.  It's all good.  I would have crocheted the current blanket I'm finishing but I knew too much crochet would not be a happy thing for my wrist.

So what's on your needles and hooks?
