An Update on the Dreaded To Do List . . .

Tuesday was February 1st in the Real World but in My World it was only December 24th.  I've been working away at my list this week and here's what I have accomplished:

December 24th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
December 25th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 26th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 27th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 28th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 29th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 30th - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
December 31st - work on Sketch Book 1/2 hour
                            edit manuscript 1/2 hour
                            complete 1 scrapbook layout


It took 3 hours to complete this layout because I had this crazy idea to cut out lots of flowers and letters.  I  spent time working on my Queen Anne's tablecloth and a couple of hours on my sweater.  Yes, I finally started it last night.  I love the yarn I am using -- Berroco Comfort knitting worsted -- so soft and pretty silver grey.  And just when I think I know everything, I had to learn two new stitches to make the ribbing . . . front post double crochet and back post double crochet.  I wish you could see the ribbing better in the photo.  But isn't it a pretty grey?


And of course lots of housework -- laundry, tidied all the rooms, and dishes.  And I have managed to blog every day and take at least one photo every day.

So In My World it is now December 31st . . . Happy New Year!!
