Friday Eye Candy

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned I found my old film SLR and there was still film in it. Well to my surprise there were pictures from December of 2002.

There is our niece, nephew, and B.

Two more have been added to the brew. Another nephew and K.

You may recall the reason I was going through the old camera was because I we were looking into getting a new one. I am so excited because I did get a new one. I should say we got one. It is one of those combo gifts that is for both of us, but in all honesty we know who will be using it more often.

So without further ado, here is this weeks installment of Eye Candy Friday taken by my new camera.

Have a great weekend!

Nine months and counting

Hubby will be delighted when he finds out about this one.

For me to announce this to him today when he gets home from work will definitely earn me some points. He was just telling me how I can't go shopping without buying something for myself. In my defense, 90% of the time, I will only buy something for myself if it is on sale and I am getting a really good deal. I posted about my shopping philosophy here, okay maybe it is more habit than philosophy.

You can find the Knit From Your Stash 2007 rules here and the thing that is nice is that you can modify the rules to suit you own need.

I am going to make a few modifications to the rules and these are mine. Even though in the rules, Wendy is not going to count sock yarn, I am. The next modification is if I use up any particular type of yarn that is in my stash, I am allowed to purchase more of that yarn, but only for one project at a time. In other words, if I use up all my sock yarn I can buy enough sock yarn to make one pair, if I use up all my yarn that is at a particular gauge, I can purchase more to complete one project. Also, if I decide that I am going to make a gift for someone and I don't have yarn that is adequate for the particular project I have in mind, then I can but yarn just for that project.

We will see how it goes.
