HOLIDAY KNITTING:  Oy.  Just, OY.  I know some things are going to have to fall off the list.  Good thing I only told a couple of people that I was going to knit for them.  Thing Two said I could wait to do her sweater till her birthday in March, thank goodness.  I think I like the idea of knitting them birthday sweaters instead of Christmas sweaters a LOT better b/c there’s not as much clustered around that time.  I’m still going to make Thing One’s scarf, and I’ll make a little drawstring bag for the wheels for Thing Two’s Heelys, but that’s a lot quicker than making her Drive Thru.  I’d tell you all the rest of the stuff on my list of knitting that needs to be done by the end of 2007, but a) it would make my head hurt, and b) I’d have to XXX out a bunch of stuff so the recipients don’t see it on the list.  Suffice it to say that when I had to list it out for something else, there were over 20 things on the list.  Like I said, OY.

On that note, off I go to do housework, do some special cleaning for the shower on Saturday (Gee, Araxi, I must love you if I’m going to wash walls and clean baseboards!  Or maybe it’s b/c I’m afraid of what Carol, Toots, Sonia, Gus, and April will think.  Yeah, I think that’s it.  I know Araxi won’t care, and my mom & sister are used to it.).  AND, I have a bit of knitting to do…
