Well, You See, This Is What Happened

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, kittens. The time has come, my little friends, to talk of many things. My Christmas Sweater is not done nor will it be done in time for the happy day. I went in like a wrecking ball and all I did was wreck it.

I was distracted by Christmas knitting and Breaking Bad. And restarting SOA. And awesome music. But I know you all have been waiting patiently for pictures so here they are: Christmas knitting in all its glory


Notice the fine craftsmanship? The delicate yet perfectly defined stitching?



Yes, I've certainly outdone myself this year. And that is why there will be no Christmas Sweater for me this year. And probably every other year of my life. UNLESS someone out there gifts me a sweater. (please, no Red Heart)

Countdown to Deadline: 3 crapping Yuletide days and nights
Remaining sweater work: THE SAME AS YESTERDAY!
Terror Alert Level: Santa Suit Red - able to scare small unsuspecting children 
Series to Knit by: Sons of Anarchy (not great for me as I am strangely attracted to Tig)

Baby, It's Hot In Here

Aloha, kittens! Greetings from balmy Fargo, North Dakota! Although it's -10 degrees Fahrenheit outside my kitchen is hotter than a billy goat's ass in a pepper patch. With holiday baking in full swing, my taking a scalding shower every five minutes because I neither make nor retain body heat, and yarn flying off my needles, I fully expect someone to call the fire brigade and have (hopefully) hot firefighters breaking down the door.

Tsk tsk on me for not having pictures but poo poo on you for thinking I would so close to Christmas. So no pictures of knitting but there are lots of other things are going on.
                                           
                                                            This is going on somewhere:


                                                                          and this:


and something awesome is definitely happening here even if I don't know what it is:


Countdown to Deadline: 11...ELEVEN?!?!?... Yuletide days and nights
