Finally !! A place of our own

Just believe me when I tell you the last 3 months have seemed like 3 years but here we are finally its a 3 bedroom double with a bath and a half,dining room kitchen living room it needs some work done to it but this is something I like to do so I will try to update as I do it I just today got the puter up and going .We got snow on top of snow here the girls have been out of school for 2 days and I have been off work for 3 days getting everything together the w/d stove and fridge are in. The beds are here as well as a couch and chair. we had stuff at 2 friends my aunts and storage and then for a few days all the above plus the new place as well.LMAO there are several things I really like about the place.
Heres the doorway

heres the tile on my front porch which will make a great knitting spot this spring and summer.It has a ceiling fan on it.

living room windows

this is from the dining room looking into the living room plants will be living on these shelves as soon as I can get them back in shape they have been living at my aunts and she isnt very plant freindly

buffet.
This is one of the projects,this is painted and the doors are glass the landlord told me to have at it.so sometime this spring and summer I will be taking this to the natural wood stage.

the kitchen has to go.mabye something in yellow

back porch
this room has so much light!! the seedlings will be basking out here in a month or so

the bathroom well its just a bathroom LOL

it seems I forgot to put the bedrooms on so will add the m at a later date all in all the girls and I are very happy .To my pal Jane,thank you for all your encouragement and support during this trying time.

Entrelac Scarf project for WhoDuKnit

Here it is with the first skein on

Here it is with the 2nd skein and the 3rd has been started I wanted to get this done today and start the book tomorrow but well Jane take a look below I have been busy!! WOO HOO

the first and second skein matched perfectly in order but the end of the 2nd one had another color attached which threw off the sequence and the third is really throwing it off! LOL I love it though!

February WIP

Good Morning,today I am going to post about WIP for this month.There is reading Northern Lights,The baby blanket for Tara, a girl at work. I also need to make a hat and booties to go with it.The shower is on the 23rd so need to get on it.The blanket is almost halfway done so I may get most of it done over the weekend.It is just a big version of the washrag pattern but it really is turning out pretty.I need blue ribbon to weave into the enging so may go get that this weekend.There is the Forest Path stole KAL that starts today!!and there is also the Entrelac scaft KAL that goes with the Northern lights book.also there are my mitts which I will get on the needles hopefully before the end of the day.Sometime this month I need to get the supplies for the International Tote Exchange.I don't think I will get it started this month though.I am helping Azya find a pattern for her pals bag one that we can both live with LOL IE. one she can do and I don't tear out her or my hair in the proces!She is a pretty good knitter so I think it will just be a matter of finding one that is pretty basic as the yarn she has picked will make the bag awesome!SO lets recap this.
