a bit chatty

I wrote this post yesterday (Monday) but had some computer problems so here it is:

Seems as though it has a been a while since I last posted. I can't say I really have an excuse.

My friend Sam and I found a house! The owners are building a new house about 30 minutes from here so they are renting there present house to us. The house is actually right next door to Sam's parents which isn't exactly ideal but her parents are helping us out a lot in various ways. We should be moving in in early March. Then we may be getting a third roommate in July.

I am still working on the same projects I have been but I have made good progress on my first sock. The heel that I was nervous about was actually pretty easy. My only problem was with picking up stitches. Now my next problem is going to be with the Kitchener stitch to close the toe. I have never used it before. Hoping to finish that tonight and start the second one before tomorrow.

Its only Monday but my schedule for this weekend is pretty full already. Friday, well I work. Saturday I will be going with Angola's Winter Guard. When I was in high school (graduated 2010) I was in Marching Band all four years. But what I really wanted to do was guard (the group with the flags and guns). In our state they have Winter Guard which is just the flags, rifles, and sabres spinning and dancing to pre-recorded music. My senior year was actually the first year my mother allowed me to do it. So Saturday I am going to go with them and help out. I'm excited. Then Sunday I am going with my mom, her cousin, and her aunt to the Princess Diana exhibit in Kalamazoo. That should be cool.

Hopefully I'll find time to post again soon. Happy Knitting!
