WOW - Where did the time go - part 2

I can't believe it's November already! Time flies when you are having fun (or not). It's been a tough year and let's just leave it at that for now.

Back to 100 Things About Me:

16. I believe that chocolate is a food group.
17. We just got back from Disney World. Note I did not say vacation at Disney . There were was nothing relaxing about it :)
18. I love my job.
19. I miss my high school girl friends.
20. I love Christmas.
21. I believe in the perfect gift - all the way down to the wrapping. And I will spend countless hours looking for the perfect gift.
22. I love making homemade gifts, even though they are not appreciated
23. Wine, not beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Sorry Mr. Franklin.
24. I am a list maker. They make me feel productive.

On my needles:

CLAPOTIS - my first and I am loving every stitch. What a wonderful pattern, so clever. I have two skeins of LimenViolet's Intentions yarn in the patience colorway. If you know me, you get the colorway.

TUSCANY SHAWL - my first shawl, very easy. It's going to be a lovely gift for my sister for Christmas.

KnitPicks crew neck sweater - for my daughter for Christmas in her favorite color - green with navy stripes. Unfortunately it will be a work in progress in her gift box.

Plain vanilla socks - half of the foot to go and the pair will be done. The yarn is a self striping / fair isle.

JAYWALKERS - brought the beginning of this sock on vacation and never touched it. It will probably be frogged.
