Ah. It is Halloween. The box of decorations is still in the attic, but the kids are in their costumes and I'm ready (pretty much!) for the two parties at my kids' schools. So even though I didn't get to deck the halls with boughs of bones, I'm still feeling pretty okay.
I've also made some progress on a few crafty efforts:
-Poncho for D all done except blocking and fringe -- hurrah!
-Monogram swaps all done and mailed!
-Bday present for my good friend Jen done and mailed! (And her birthday isn't even until 11/30 -- haha!)
-Treat boxes for Kinsey's class all done and ready to hand out!
-Washcloth for A done -- ready to be mailed with some nice soap!
-Halloween board book for Saturday's class designed! (If you're in the area, DO NOT MISS this class. The book is gorgeous, if I do say so myself. Out of the area?? Well, then, BUY A KIT whydon'tcha??)
On the list:
-Washcloth for W
-Socks for Claire
-Socks for Ben
-Poncho for Kinsey
-Lotus Blossom Tank to finish
-Xmas presents!!! (That's a whole 'nother list)
That's enough for now. What is on your to-make list?
PS I will announce the winner of the Nice book later today!
Wow...you've got so much accomplished already! Wow. My to-do list has no end this week, LOL. Can't wait for Saturday :)

I moved into Christmas gift mode this week...making a 31-day perpetual calendar based on the advent calendar project in CK this month. I'm doing all the pages digi, though, and then will print them out and make the calendar itself. Such a cool project...I've been totally absorbed in it for the past two days! Pics at my blog if you want to check them out. :)

There is a ton on my to do list...now the question is what will get done LOL
I am almost finished socks for my dad. I started socks for my mom. I have at least 6 pairs of jammie bottoms to make. I want to do a child sock for my niece and the hockey booties for my nephew (to go with the team Canada jersey dh bought him for Christmas)I need to do socks for my mil and I will make my fil some jammie bottoms cause he wouldn't want socks. I want to make all the parents something this year.
Oh I could write a novel of what I want to accomplish....I need to get moving!!!
