Hehehe…I’m such a lazy blogger. It’s been two weeks and not a word from me. Ah, my life’s pretty boring and mundane. Nothing much to blog about I suppose. Everyday is the same. Wake up, go work, come home, cook, eat, knit, sleep, and the cycle repeat itself continuously.
Crap. I even sound boring now. Think think think. Blank.
Now, one of my goal for today was to go to Spotlight after work to get some green buttons 
to match with a cardigan that I’ve just finished knitting. So I’ll probably show you a sneak peak of it. I have sewn the buttons on but the cardigan is still a bit damp from blocking. Also, it’s been raining everyday and the skies are pretty cloudy. It’s not a good weather to snap nice photos either so you’ll have to wait.
Of course, when I was at Spotlight, buttons weren’t the only thing that I was looking at. The yarn aisles seem to be calling me somehow 
and off I went. None of the yarns were on sale…oooh, what’s in the bargain bin?? Hmm…now that looks like a good deal, 10 balls of Patons Jet for only $25???
Lastly, my furry babies have been feeling neglected so give them some hugs!!!

It has been pouring almost every single day in Perth. And it will remains wet and windy for the rest of the week based on the weather forecast. Most of the time, I always feel gloomy when it’s pouring really hard and I’m all alone at home. However, the moment I see the rainbow after the storms clear, it never fails to bring a smile to my face. 
Now, enough of my gibberish. I made some muffins beginning of this week and I’ve been eating them every single day as my breakfast. They’re really simple and yummy bacon and mushrooms savoury muffins.
Also, thanks to the good programs on TV during the weekend, I’m proud to say that I’ve been knitting quite a bit. I’m so happy that I finally finished knitting the sleeves for Leo!! Yay!!! :upsidedown: However, the downside is that right now, I have to attempt the dreadful seaming. I’m really really not good with seaming!!! This is the part I hate to tackle the most!! What if I didn’t seam properly? It’ll all go to waste!!! :dead: :dead: :dead:
Lastly, we had our City Nits yesterday and I did bring back some yummy stuff. Hehehe. Wanna know what I brought home?? Okok. I shall stop teasing you all. First, I’ve got 10 skeins of Noro Silk Garden for my Mum. Yeap. Please read that again. I repeat, it’s for my Mum. Therefore, it’s not consider my stash!! My Mum fell in love with the Lady Eleanor pattern so I decided to buy her some Noro so that she can knit one for herself. Hmmm…actually, if I have time, I should knit that for her right? Wouldn’t that be a lot nicer?? And all of you all would say that I’m such a good daughter?? :yuck:
Secondly, they’re my first batch of sock yarns from Socks That Rock!! Yay!!! I’ve heard so much about them I had to get some of them for myself!! However, I did get a shock especially when I saw how the colours of “Sherbet” turned up!! They didn’t look like what I saw on the screen!!! It has shocking pink, orange and yellow!!! A lot brighter that I imagine!!! I hope it’ll turn out ok once it’s being knitted!!! The other colour that I got is “Love In Idleness“Anyway, can’t wait to knit them into some lovely socks!! :heart: :heart: :heart:

My FH has already flew back to work in Kalgoorlie and I won’t be seeing him for another 7 weeks. 
I know we’ll be apart for a very looooooong time but I have my furry babies and knitting to keep me company. Yes, my knitting has resumed and progress has been slow and steady. However, before we move into my knitting progress, do look at what Mr. Postman has brought me today? :up:
There are two packages and the big box is a package from my SP 10 and I’ve been waiting for this package for more than a week already and I’m superly duperly excited!! :up: Would you look at all the yummy goodies that’s inside the box??
Firstly, there’s two beautiful skeins of Hand Jive Knits Nature’s Palette Yarn, Fingering Weight in Seafoam colour. I haven’t really thought what I’m going to knit with this yarn yet, but most probably it will either be a pair of socks or a shawl.
Secondly, look at what my thoughtful SP 10 got me!! Knit Simple Magazine Spring/Summer 2007 issue and Last Minute Knitted Gifts, which has been on my wishlist since last year!!! Isn’t she nice??? :heart: :heart: :heart: I’ve been eyeing that book for ages!!!
