What to do... What to do....

So here's the dilema, I love my kids but kinda want to get back out into the work force. My kids are 4 (soon to be 5), 3.5, 3.5, and 2. One is in preschool right now, the other two are gearing up for it next school year and then it will just be the boy and I until the year after that pre-school for him and then school for him, in what thats 2 school years, 3 year years away. But here's the thing, there is a position well suited to my strengths in business and its a very limited chance to get it, I want it but at what expense. I want my kids to go to a certain pre-school, but I also wouldnt mind working, especially with the current economy. Of course, this would all depend on if the pay was right and I could find a day care with in a certain budget. But if we do day care then it would be no pre-school where I want them to go. UGH. I'm so confused. I'm going to call tomorrow and find out about the job, maybe right there this will all end, but then again it could be that I'm even more tempted to leave the home. Why couldnt this have waited one more year, things would have worked out much better then.

FO: Baby hat for a friend

Baby hat is finished. I started it on Feb 21 and finished on Feb 24. Its made from LB Microspun in French Vanilla. I really hope they like it.

Looky, Looky, What I got today.....

Can you guess what this is?

That's right its a leg! I finally have an extra leg, now I just need an extra hand & head and then I'll be set! I have a feeling my postman probably thinks I'm crazy now, haha. Here she is without and with a sock on. As you can see she can stand on her own, now I just need to name her ;D.

So what would you all name her?

On another note, here's a picture of one of the many things I'm working on right now. Yay, having a new camera.

SQUEEEEEE!!!!!!!

I got a new camera this weekend and I'm so excited. It has a ton of great features and it was an excellent price. It is a big step up from my Kodak and I cant wait to play with all of my great features. I took this pic from the nikon website just so you all could have a look see...

...I haven't taken any great pictures worth posting yet but soon, I'll be playing catch up on Ravelry and posting here again. I will say the best feature was I could still use the same card I already had in it and that it was a great deal.

13 Years...

So in just under an hour, our 13 year anniversary will be over. It wasnt what I was expecting, but then again 13 years ago I wasnt expecting some senior in HS to look upon a freshman and want to go out with her. It was also our first kiss, thirteen years ago. In my family, when you fall in love, you fall hard and most of the time fast. I didn't know then that he would be the one I would marry, have four children with, and live day to day happy I married him. But I sure am happy that I did.

So here's to 13 great years and many more to come. I love you T!

Sorry about the absence...

I've been knitting until my hands are completely cramped up and then I would take some pain reliever and keep going. Unfortunately I cant show you what I've been working my hands off on, it's a test knit for a book. I'm very excited and will let all of you know as soon as its available. It's really fun being part of such a neat process. I hope I can do it again not to far off in the future, not tomorrow or even this month, but I would consider doing it again as soon as March. I'll have to time manage better but that's me not anyone else.

Other than that life has been life. I'm behind in a lot of things and trying my best to get caught up. Speaking of which I need to go work. Hope to be here more often, soon.
