Thoughts...

Ok, so I know it has been a while since I have done a more indepth entry about stuff in general so here you go.

***

Work has been going great despite having issues with one of my staff members who is a spoiled little brat, but anywhoskies that is neither here nor there. It is going well.

***

The one good thing about the new job and the schedule I get to keep for it is that I get to slowly catch up on knitting, crochet, sewing, and other things. (insert fanfare here)

I have in the last two weeks gotten nothing knitting or crochet related done but have gotten the following items finished from my sewing backlog:

2 duvet covers (one for myself and the other for a friend)
2 euro sham covers for myself
about 20 odd cushion covers for myself and family
3 sets of curtain panels for the folks
and a whole bunch of bag designs put onto paper

***

I will get knitting and other things caught up, I know I will. I HAVE THE POOOOOOWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! (sorry 80's cartoon flashback!)

***

I am also taking some time for me in just over a week and visting a good friend in Toronto for a few days, and whilst there will be living it up with Alynxia, that knowledgeable knitress from Plurk.

Is Toronto ready for this phenom? Tune in to find out!!!

***

One of the biggest thoughts other than the Gweninator bag I am still trying to work out, is a jacket design I am finding continues to swim in the mental pool of thought. I can chalk that up to a night of watching movies (Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, Ultra Violet, Ecks vs Sever, and Van Helsing {I know, odd combo}).

***

I have also had many thoughts of cooking and baking and bbq and drinkage and the like. Someone stop me cause this might mean I am wanting to do a dinner party again.

***

Well back to sketching out this jacket to work some kinks out of it and now that I have a scanner that works I will be able to get sketches of things up quicker and hopefully not have any tech issues like spontaneously combusting SD cards for the digital camera. (What is it with me?)

***

One last thought that I have had is with the new job, I will be able to afford to get that elusive new laptop called Mac. Specifically the 17" MacBook Pro. It will be in my possession at somepoint in time this summer. Squee!
