Motivated!
Friday night we went out for dinner since neither of us felt like cooking and I was craving a hamburger. When we got home we watched Strangers with Candy the movie and I finished our blanket I've been knitting forever. It's really small so I've decided to give it to our nephew for Christmas. After I completed that I taught myself to purl. The knitting mystery I've been reading has motivated me to be more brave in my knitting.
Saturday we:
- Attended our weight watchers meeting, lost weight this week, and received awards for weighing in for 16 weeks, Cindi received an award for loosing another 5 lbs (totaling over 20 lbs)
- Went grocery shopping
- Cindi gave Jack a much needed bath and I dried him off
- Cleaned & reorganized the kitchen including sweeping and cleaning the floor on my hands and knees (we don't own a mop). I've now decided I want a robot that mops ;)
- Vacuumed & dusted most of the house
- Oiled our bamboo cutting boards
- Cleaned the spare bathroom
- Unpacked all but one box that was left over from our move
- Organized the office a bit more
- Decorated the house with holiday cheer
- Knitted a change purse & bookmark from scrap yarn
- Helped Cindi water the plants
- Moved one of our hanging plants from the bathroom (where it was very sad) to the kitchen where it'll get more attention and much more light
- Organized our bedroom closet (accidentally running into a hidden wrapped Yule gift, oops!)
I think that's about it but I'll update if I remember anything else. Tomorrow I'm hoping to do laundry and maybe some more knitting. We're a bit poor right now so I'm going to have to be happy with knitting with scrap yarn until I can afford new yarn & needles for new projects.
