Monday, Monday

Well, my van has been in the shop for a week now. They did give me a loaner to use (thankfully) so I have some transportation. It should be done by tomorrow, they say, let's hope so.

We're starting a new book study at church called The Bondage Breaker. It sounds interesting. I'm heading up a service project at church for www.anysolider.com, we're adopting a unit and planning a huge care package.

Not much time to add anything else. I'm working on a few projects and just finished a surprise one last night while watching the Oscars.

Oh My Goodness!

There are some wonderful, generous people in the world! I am part of the Wish List at Crochetville. I'd gotten something early on in the exchange, but nothing recently. DH brought in the mail this morning (my mail never comes before 3pm, we must have a sub) and sets a box on the diningroom table. I opened it up and almost cried. This is what I found:

A set of Denise Interchangeable Knitting Needles which I've longed for at least 6 months. Three skeins of Sox yarn in cool colors, and two new Walk Away the Pounds DVD's (yea, new workouts!!!!!) with stretchy bands. I still can't believe the generousity of this anonymous Fairy Godmother.

Last week I got my hat from the hat swap. It's so cute. Made of of blue and black boucle, the hat is reversable and is constructed like a double knit hat. And there is a matching scarf! Too cute and the blue matches my blue winter coat, while the black matches my black wool dress coat. It's nice and warm for cold days.
