A few things...

1. Don't forget about The Preemie Project fundraiser at Glassando this Sunday, December 9. 20% of in-store and online purchases will be donated to The Preemie Project. It's a great cause and a great selection of jewelry in all price ranges. Please show your support on Sunday!!!

2. I thought I'd give an update on the problems we've been having conceiving since I received so much support (thank you to all my friends!). The medication unfortunately hasn't worked. I could move on to giving myself (or more appropriately, my husband giving me) shots in the stomach or butt for 10 days and go under a lot of medical monitoring. However, we have decided that is not the right path for us for a number of reasons. If anyone wonders, I'd be happy to tell you those reasons.

Yes, we are upset about the news, but coping as well as can be expected. We're looking at this as a new beginning for us. We hope to adopt in a year or two. I already called an adoption agency today to start researching. The woman I talked to was absolutely wonderful and made me know in my heart this is the right move to start our family. It's an overwhelming process, so we'll start slow. First things first we'll decide on domestic vs international then go from there. With a happy ending in sight, we are very excited to start our journey and share it with our family and friends.

Knit Picks order is in

I got my order from Knit Picks yesterday. LOVE it. The Shadow yarn didn't come in a center pull ball, so I had to wind that while watching A Beautiful Mind last night. Winding center pull balls is the worst. All yarn companies should do that for you. I cast on for the feather and fan scarft already. Today has been a good day to work on it with the ice and snow keeping us indoors.
