So yesterday, I turned 35. Not really a bad thing, in fact it was pretty good. Spent the afternoon golfing with Peter and our neighbours, Sandy & Dan. Then BBQ / party at Sandy & Dan's later, complete with Steve singing and playing guitar, and toasted marshmallows over the firepit. Any day that ends with toasted marshmallows is a good day.
I also got $75 in gift cards for Yarn Forward; $50 from mom & dad and $25 from Peter's mom. JOY! I did spend a little already on the Marble for Carole's Clapotis (I may have posted about that already?), but the rest I'm saving for something really special for me.
Speaking of Clapotis, I've finished Row 8 (straight section) for the second time, and dropped the second stitch. I still don't like the way they look dropped; I really hope it looks better when the whole thing's done!
Working this evening and may pick up some LB Fun Fur; I've never really been interested in it but Janice at the store said it's great for quick scarves for gifts and right now we've got in on sale for 2 balls/$5. That's a good deal, so I might try to find some colours that aren't too horrific. :)
