View Article  Dear Santa

Dear Santa,

I realize it has been a very long time since you have received a letter from me. My how the times have changed since I can now email you and read your blog to keep up to date on the happenings at North Pole Inc. Glad the Elves strike is over. I hope you do go ahead and start your podcast next year. I’m looking forward to it. I also do not have my driver’s license. I don’t have my sleigh license either.

You’re probably wondering why a 30–something woman is writing a letter to you. Or maybe you’re used to that. I suspect you’ve been “around the block a few times” and have really seen it all, so I guess you’re really  not that surprised.

I’m writing to you because I don’t know where else to turn. I only want one thing this Christmas. In fact, Bandit and I both want the same thing. We want his cancer to go into remission and for him to live a long happy life. So that’s it. The one gift I want for Christmas. I know it’s not an easy one, like the year I got my easy-bake oven, but what did you expect from a 30–something year old, anyway. I know you know how old I am, but there’s no need to post that here for all to see.

Ross says to take it easy on the fat content this Christmas. I was thinking of campaigning for rice cakes and skim milk for Santa, but perhaps you’re lactose intolerant, in which case, you could have that lactose-free milk. It’s actually quite good.

Have a safe flight :)

Love,

Amanda and Bandit

View Article  Another online knitting mag bites the dust

Now we’ve lost for the love of yarn.  Still, we have Knitty, MagKnits, The AntiCraft… not to mention Ravelry, Crochetville

A new thing on Crochetville is online classes. I’m thinking of signing up for one or two. I think it’s such a great idea. It’s a great way to learn new techniques.

I’m currently working on:

- comfort shawl for a step-aunt (feather and fan pattern)

– scarf (gift) (my own design based on a stitch pattern I found)

– vest for me (beautiful kit from Mary Maxim)

– various cross stitch projects – Jennifer Aikman-Smith’s dragon ornament for one…

– afghan for nephew # 2

Want to start:

– comfort shawl for a lady I met at the CSNF

– comfort shawl for a woman I was talking to last night

– comfort shawl for me – I could use a little comfort myself right now

– hat for me, hat for Ross

– Christmas presents for family………

Please feel free to send me gifts of time. I sure could use it. I also need the housework and garden fairies to come and help me out. If you see them, would you kindly send them over?
