Christmas is WHEN!!!!
Am I the only one to be so behind this year?? I cannot believe we are all but moments it seems, away from that big day. No cake made yet, still presents to buy, no tree up. I am normally well on my way to being completely ready, including mince pies made and stored....what is the matter this year? Is anybody else suffering from this too. I feel such a failure.....
I think part of the problem is that this year has been pretty full on for us really, the other half has a new job and is juggling full o six days a week work. I am working from home, that and eldst is getting that much older and of course my baby, he is now in nursery *sniff sniff..wimper* so thats three trips back and forward to school, ten min trip each way in the car SHHEEEEESHHHH.
So that has meant that somewhere in amongst this I am meant to have fitted in all the shopping and preps for christmas and although I am on my way its a slow process, and hardly any christmas knitting has been done. Knitting friends, you have been warned ;)
The shop also needs to be kept going, and I am, here are some new listings to wet your appetites, the yarn, Orchid is DEVINE, if youdont want it I might just run up a tree with it and not let it go!!!
again, smaller wooden heads, aint they cool!

I totally feel you on the "Christmas is how many days away?!?". I'm way behind in everything. So no, you're not at all alone. :)
Your yarn is gorgeous too!
Dont feel like a failure, it sounds like you have a lot on! Remember everything doesnt have to be "perfect" as long as you're with the ones you love!
Try not to stress too much :-)
....now I just need to follow my own advice!
Love the new stitch markers!
That wool is gorgeous!
I'm right there with you, if it makes you feel any better. :-) Luckily I don't have too many knitted gifts that I *MUST* work on, although I had dreams of having lots done. But I still have some store-bought gifts to get, and there will be no more safe times to go to a mall from here on out...hmmph.
Good luck getting it all done. And I love the orchid yarn! Scrummy!
TEN DAYS. *runs around in circles* I have three exams to do, two gifts to finish, and an entire apartment to spit-shine. In one week, because it all starts going to h*ll on the 23rd.
*flails*
I am so with you on the not being prepared front, haven't wrapped any pressies :( I had big ideas of knitting a few gifts, oh dear no chance, deadline knitting is no use to me I lost all knitting mojo, now I have bought the presents it has strangely returned ;S
Yummy yummy yarn! (I still have the green lace-weight from you to knit with)
PHEW glad you are all there with me too!!
and big hellos to all the new faces, lovely to hear from you xxx
Those keychains are cute!!
