Sometimes life just gets on top of you (but I have puppy pictures to make up for that)

I haven’t updated in quite awhile, I must admit I have been having life issues which I am sure we all go through at sometime. Although sometimes I feel that too many things get in the way/cause problems for me than is average in a life time.
I won’t go into detail with all the problems, I can’t imagine anyone being interested in that stuff.
But what I can update about, is our dog Willow had a puppy :)
We were all quite surprised, as none of us thought she was pregnant, but she had a very healthy looking boy on Friday the 6th November. He is the cutest thing in the world, and now I kinda wish we could keep him but I can’t

I have been doing lots of knitting recently, although the progress has been slow on some of it, I finished my cardigan that I was working on which can be found here on ravelry and I have also knit lots of socks :) . I seem to be on a big sock kick recently, and a big sock yarn horder, most of my sock yarn problems stem from becoming friends with Sarah her yarn is like crack and I am very much addicted, I also have no idea how many months/years it will take me to knit all these socks up.
Going on with socks, I keep reading all this buzz about the Wollmeise yarn, I have slightly stalked the shop and received a shipment, its very nice. I love that it comes in 150g hanks, it should mean that I can get more than 2 pairs of socks from them. As I love short socks, I hardly ever go over the 50g mark so I am super excited to see how many pairs I can get.

On Ravelry I have been in 2swaps recently and got both gifts with a week of each other which was really awesome. The first was the indie yarn swap (you shouls come and join us) I was allowed to run in this round, and although small it went on without a hitch. Everyone received parcels and everyone is really happy with what they got.
this is my awesome haul from the ever lovely Siri

Second I joined the books and more swap, and had another awesome parcel this time from the lovely Kayla

I am always so impressed with how thoughtfull and wonderfull the people on Ravelry are.
Right now I need to actually go do a bunch of stuff, and stop wasting time, I think I shall start by making a list of what I actually need to get done.
