J, Apple and I were having fun with the ‘photo booth’ application on my computer. I know this isn’t our best side, but it was truly hilarious. J and I were laughing so hard I was crying. And well poor little Apple had no idea what on earth we were doing. We took about twenty photos before we were finished. One day I will pull them all together into a photo album just to remember how much fun we had being silly.
Can I also say that I am now officially a knitting addict? It all started with a hat. Actually it started with a book about hats that turned into a complete addiction. Apple doesn’t have her own hand knit blanket. J has three but is only willing to temporarily lend the one that he never uses to her for the car. She is constantly grabbing his blankets and staring at his blankets and so I started knitting one. What you see above is one weeks worth of knitting. By the time I am finished it will be summer, but that’s ok because she will still need a blanket in the summertime. I really enjoy that I have something to keep my hands busy, but I may have to take a break for a few days to get caught up on a few items on my to-do list.
My to-do list could be a blog post on its own, it is two whole pages long. And that is lined paper, not just a note pad. I have already crossed off a couple of cleaning to-do’s. Like the loft. Our never ending clutter room. That is the room that houses my work table, Hubby’s desk and the kids desk. Everything get put there for sorting. Piles of paper, stuff without a home. So together Hubby and I cleaned it up this Sunday. It was great because I cannot be crafty surrounded by clutter. Today I tackled two cupboards in the kitchen. All of a sudden I realized that there was a whole shelf us stuff I hadn’t touched since we moved in here almost three years ago. Today was garbage day so off it went. And now the shelf has become the chip shelf so the chips no longer have to reside on top of my pots and pans. I am so happy! The rest of my to-do is pretty much crafty projects I want or need to complete. I have a few new ideas floating around and can’t wait to finish my blanket so I can give them a try.

Love the photo booth pic! We too spent a lot of time laughing our heads off making faces there, what fun!
And I feel the same about crafting in clutter, this is why I have not painted in a month, I must get at er!
Yay you for all your clutter busting….there you go inspiring me again, thanks!!
my girlfriend did this hideous photo thing to my kids christmas photo, one of them…. it looks so ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
my *to do* list could have its own blog too, but i am putting it down to a Hugely Creative Mind… and heading back to the beach lol X
I read in a magazine one day last summer to take 10 minutes each week and get rid of 10 items you no longer need or want. I try to do this each week. I am slowly getting rid of some clutter.
BeachMama: Great idea. I have read it too, but never put it to task. Maybe this is my year to finally get everything organized.
LOVE the photo of you, J and Apple! Too cute!!!
Thanks for the note you left me the other day. Doing fine now, with the exception of some back and neck pains. I don’t think they’ll ever find the driver who ran me off the road. People like that shouldn’t be allowed to drive!!!
I wish you could teach me how to knit! My friend came over a few weeks ago and attempted. I was on a roll and my knitting did start to look like a scarf. When she left, I forgot what I was doing and ended up crocheting the rest. ARGH!!! (I can crochet, but I can’t knit)
