Long over due

I haven't had a chance to blog for awhile with everything that has been going on. I lost my dear sweet Sonnie on Thanksgiving morning she has crossed over the rainbow bridge. I have had her for 15 years and she was such a princess and demanded to be treated that way. As spoiled as she was was she was always a good girl never giving me any trouble. She is going to be missed by everyone here. She was my special girl.

I have been busy knitting and crocheting up a storm I have made 23 scarves and 52 hats that I donated to the homeless shelter for the winter I have also done 75 baby hats for the children's hospital.

Right now I am working on knitting a breast cancer awareness hat with cable ribbons, this is getting to be a very challenging project as I am still very new to knitting but I am determined to finish it and I hope it comes out nice. Well I am going to get back to the hat.
