Morning friend

I finally started drinking coffee about 3 years ago because my early morning Diet Pepsi wasn't cutting it any more. My friend Kat gave me a Visa card for Christmas and I got this Keurig and some coffee pods. It still works great and I love the smell of it with my flavored creamers. Yum!

It has really gotten downright chilly here in the last few days. The house is cold just as much as it is outside. So I was surprised to see this little bee going about his business as usual when all I want to do is sit with some nice knitting by the fire.

This morning I finished helping with Josh's classroom and pass by the park on my walk home. I liked how the swing's shadow looked so I snapped off a quick shot.

I have a busy day with a nice lunch planned with Sherri at the Cheesecake Factory which I'm looking forward to and I'm starving!! :)

Fun weekend with a bowling night with the family. Got a great shot of Tyler which is sometimes difficult because of his ever changing moods.

He looks happy and he is growing into a handsome young man. :)

Of course I finished my Green Waffel hat yesterday afternoon and now here it is. I hadn't photographed little A in a long time modelling my knitwear so here she is too. Pretty soon I won't be able to call her little A since I've known her since she was a baby. :)

Okay, I've totally abandoned my original plan with the themes but I have made a better effort to take a picture a day. Here it is already December and even though I contribute during the year to my Christmas gift pile, I find the urge to knit more during this time. I need to go through the gift pile and figure out if I have enough. It didn't help that I got 3 more knitting books that I'm sure that has sparked the knitting fever.

Anyway, here is a hat OTN that is almost done. It is the same Waffel hat pattern that I made a week ago but boy, I'm getting bored with it so I need to finish it and get on to other projects.

Cute stitch marker

The hat is a bright tonal green and so far seems very stretchy so I think it will fit a variety of head sizes (maybe even mine).  I have a cool stitch marker that I picked up at the fiber festival in Torrance earlier this month.

Polar Bear Down

We had some gusty winds last night that didn't seem to cause too many problems in our area but it did knock down our neighbor's Christmas decoration.

He doesn't look damaged and should be up again in no time. :)
