Simple Sunday

Hello!
Happy Sunday, I hope you are all doing well and accomplishing the things you set out to do! I am trying today to get things done, cleaning my room, went to proactice highway driving, and according to my dad, I was excellent! :D my G test is in March, so I still have plenty of time to practice driving along and merging onto the highway..

Knitting To Do's!

I took a photo of my yarn stash this morning and decided to share it with you. I hadn't realised just how much yarn I've accumulated over the years. I see a color i like buy it, and then I guess don't use it. But I will be knitting more I assure you :)

Yarn :)

I will be knitting "tube socks" with the colorful yarn soon to start practicing knitting socks :) It's pretty !

Some knitting books I own and love :)

Have a great rest of your sunday :)

Happy Weekend!!

I am so happy it's the weekend now, it's been a busy week with the kiddies at work and early shift! waking up at 5:45 every morning. I slept in until 9 30 today, it was heaven....

I got started on some socks the other night I just need to figure out what a "panel pat" is then I am off and running! they will be gray with a cable knit stich running down the side. They look really cute in the picture. Let's see if I can match it ;)

I am going to a child's birthday party today in 15 minutes actually and going to do the wole pizza lunch, cake and games thing. I am helping out my friend she has 3 boys.

Well I hope you all enjoy this fine saturday ! and maybe go tobagganing if you have snow like me up to your knees :)

A night for relaxation

Hola

Hello Bloggers ♥

Tonight was a wonderful relaxation night. One of those cozy nights after work when you have no agendas, nothing you HAVE to do....
so here's how this fabulous night went down...

First, when I got home I logged onto my computer and signed onto my blog, looked around and also looked through my favorite blogs to see updates. I thought about how to make mine better. I can spend a lot of time doing this :)


Then decided, I need some cozy at home clothes and changed into my pjs and very comfortable slippers :)



Then I picked up "The Friday Night Knitting Club" and read about 10 pages until I decided to take a 30 minute nap so I wouldn't feel so sleepy. I woke up at 5:45 this morning!! :/


Then, since I live in Ontario and we have the three part drivers license [G1,G2, AND G] I booked my road test for my G [final step to getting my full license] ! so happy about that :) except it took forever to load, not just 60 seconds... gr.

Well it was a good one, tomorrow night I'll be at a work workshop and the night after, a meeting so they won't be so lovely. That's probably why I am appreciating this night so much :P

Goodnight! have a great day tomorrow :)

Done knitting the scarf :)

Hey friends :)

I am done knitting the scarf now. I just have to sew the hand pockets up at the ends of the scarf, and I'll post a picture of that tomorrow and how I made the whole scarf. It is a gift for my sister she has really wanted me to knit her one :)

yay it's done :D

As for the break up, I am doing better. I am still having doubts creep in, but thanks to my wonderful support team; my family and friends I am making progress in believing I made the right decision. Thank you all so much! :)
And thanks to you guys for commenting your support, it's helped too :) thanks

I can't believe how fast this weekend has gone, it slipped through my fingers. I am back at work tomorrow bright and early with the youngsters. I work in a daycare in the toddler room and open up the center at 6:45 ! early eh?


Sweet dreams,

Revamp!

Hey friends!


So tonight I was reading part two of the new book, called "It's called a breakup because it's broken" by Greg Behrendt & Amiira Ruotola-Behrendt. This second part is called break- over! apparently it's the moving on part of the book. I am glad I am at this point but still leaving the poor me and poor him and aw the relationship ended stage.
I was forced to buy it by my mom, I think she was sick of listening to my moaning lol. The book is actually quite funny and sooo true!

It has been helping a lot with my recent break up with my 7 month boyfriend.. tear. I just cheated and looked at his facebook, yes still facebook buddies,

bad idea? yes.

I think he's having a party soon, whoopdy-do, what am i doing, nothing? well I was thinking of going clubbing before, so maybe that this weekend just to get out as a single girl again.

SO, I read in this part that moving your room furniture and getting rid of stuff that reminds you of the person is a good step. So tonight I moved my desk on a cool angle towards on of the corners of my room :) it looks cool and it actually makes this area of my room look very different. Also the chair he used to sit in when we were talking and I was lying on my bed moved to another spot so it doesn't remind me of the past. U revamped my room! now I just have to totally clean my room there is mess everywhere. So no knitting for tonight unfortunately :(

Thanks for reading!!

Lisa xoI'll be okay... :)
goodnight!

knitty and nice

Hello !

So tonight I will be knitting again :) and watching modern family. I LOVE that show! it is the perfect sitcom and always funny, the writer's are geniuses :)

Today was easier, and I even got a text from him saying I will always have a place in his heart and he will always care for me, that was nice. He also said he really wanted to catch up in the near future. I was so happy to get his text especially after he said we needed a 2 month no text time lol and I was the one who broke up with him? confusing. Anyways it made me happy at the time.

keep on creating! no one can take this away from you :):)

It's hard to say goodbye...

Hey friends,

Today was a bit better with the whole break up. I went to work and thought of him a bit with the kids[work at a daycare], then at lunch thought of calling him, then after work thought about him again. Why is it that I am thinking about him more now than I did when we were together? It's a frustrating thing, this was one of the many reasons why we broke up, was that I didn't think about him much during the day and didn't feel like calling, seeing him etc... which made me feel like I wasn't giving the relationship my full attention. So that brings me to today, feeling like I missed him & wanted to talk to him..... sooo annoying these emotions. I never can trust them. I will have to remain strong and hope that they will pass and we can remain good friends. Because something did not work.

:(

Happy New Year!

Hi Everyone!

It is now 2011! I hope you all had an enjoyable New Years Eve with friends and family.
I was getting over a break up that night which kinda sucked. I stayed home with the parents and drank "girls night out wine" which was so good. I had broken up with my boyfriend the night before because there was just something not working between us [in my opinion]. But to make matters worse, he didn't feel the same way, he was happy in the relationship. Ultimately, I had to do what was best for me. But it has still been a struggle thinking of all the good times and memories but a lot of them were more towards the beginning of the relationship. The end was a struggle of figuring out my emotions. I lost that loving feeling by the end. *tear* but I think we'll be fine, he seems to be doing well and from the looks of his face book page, he is coping well. I am also glad he wanted to stay facebook friends, because I would never see him otherwise since we live farther away and no mutual friends. I haven't been knitting much because of it, I haven't had much motivation until today to actually get off my butt and get doing and accomplishing things.



Well I think today I'll tackle and finish the scarf and then set forth on a new project. I am still working on the book " The Friday Night Knitting Club" it is still excellent and very long, but I think I might be delaying it a bit because I like it so much ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR! and don't let fear hold you back :)
