Where is all my knitting time??

I think that the corporate world and rat race are eating up all of my knitting time. Last night we did the Target, gym, dinner, then I finally got out the Christmas card stash and made the motorhead sign, etc. them and now the small stack is ready to mail. I of course had to add DIY to it and stamped them with cute stamps, etc.
I would have liked to have a photocard with us and the furbabies you know in front of the tree...oh wait we don't have a tree. Christmas isn't all that Christmas-y this year..we are all doing very small pocketbook Christmas with my parents getting ready to move out to Hawaii..(LUCKY)...and I have bought one..yep one present so far..
I did buy myself a present...some coveted yarn....I can't wait!! Once I get the package I will have to take pictures. I also keep going over the theloopyewe.com but am forcing myself to wait, must bust out some of the stash first.

Friends....

So I have recently been going through what I would say is a friend breakup of sorts..I guess it has been going on for about a year or so. Everyone that is close to me tells me not to be upset about it, but there are times I guess that I can't help myself. Basically I had a friend that didn't like my new guy, who now is my fiance and it grew from there. I chose not to have her in my wedding as she didn't support my relationship with my FI and instead chose two of my best friends with full intent on inviting said friend. Well she then deleted me from her friends and didn't return my emails, etc. I then recieve a response that here is an early wedding present to FI, have a great life, good luck and goodbye.....

I guess that I am the kind of person that wouldn't do anything like that.

Anyways just getting it off my chest...

So that being said if anyone in the Camarillo area is up to making new friends drop me an email :) I am down to earth, like to do all things crafty (knit, make jewelry, attempt to sew, etc.). I also love to scuba dive, all things related to the water, travel, watch funny movies, cook, etc. I am pretty open minded so hey if your in the market for a new friend drop me an email :) (but please no guys trying to get a date..I have a man..thank you very much) :)

Done!

So I just got back from Denver on Friday, well mostly Winter Park. There wasn't much snow as of course the big storm was coming in the weekend that we left to come home, but oh well. Had a great time, drank way too much beer, ate naughty fried food...and gained about 5+lbs. Came home, my wedding dress was awaiting (I bought a designer dress used because I couldn't afford it otherwise). It's beautiful but snug I tell ya!! That week of naughtiness didn't do the body good :( Now its back to the gym and operation fit into dress is in effect.
In knitting news, I did finish Wendy's knit and tonic Natty Cap. I did make some modifications and didn't follow the pattern to be reversible but I do like the way it came out. I want to make another one and follow the pattern this time.
I visited the Lonesome Stone Natural Fiber Mill & Alpaca Farm http://www.lonesomestonefiber.com/index.html while I was in Winter Park. I must say that it was great to be able to visit the farm. Linda was so sweet and gave us a complete tour of the Alpacas and the Mill. Once I am home I will try and post some of the cutie pictures that I took. I of course bought 4 skeins and will need to upload them to my ravelry flickr set so that I can put them into ravelry. Oh how I love the ravelry...Now only if they wouldn't block the site from work..hehehe...bastards!
