Yay for Prizes and Updates!

Yay for prizes! I got this AMAZING yarn and these ADORABLE stitch markers from winning the hw posting prize for ravenclaw! Crazy4dyeing, ellie, a fellow claw, made them and donated them! She is so sweet and soooo amazingly talented! Thank you so much! I love my sock stuff!

So I wasn't around this weekend because I was at a yoga training. It was so much fun. I learned a lot, even though it was a refresher course for me. I think I learn something new in each retreat. I can't wait to go to level 3! Yay. So hopefully I'll have more time this weekend to spend on Rav.

If the weather is good this weekend the hubs and I might try our 32 mile round trip bike ride. It would be so fun especially with good weather. The hubs family is coming April 3rd to visit, so something else to look forward to. We are also going to see Rodney Carrington with some friends that night too. So all is good. I am off to post some kit picks to the ravenclaw kit blog. :)

Look at me posting this week, lol

So for an update on my fellow hogwarts students:

Kaae (hufflepuff) has been working on a pair of yogi pants which I am super excited to see! I hope they come out well that she enjoys them/posts the pattern so that I too can make them :D I love you Kaae!

Madam Ferula McGonagall (gryffindor) finished a gorgeous baby afghan that her grandmother started before passing away. She is going to give it to her brothers child (the intended recipient). I think its amazingly sweet and wonderful of her to share something so special. What a lucky brother to have such a great sister!

Callisto Verity (slytherin) has been spending some time with Madam Pomfrey drinking skelegrow. Poor dear broke her arm and has been unable to knit! I know I find this very tragic. Hopefully she is on the mend and doing much better. :)

The headmistress asked all the students to contribute a cheer for our match against the ballycastle bats but I think I should leave that up to the more creative members of our house or other houses. So good luck to our allstar team! I am off to buy some more stuff for my spoilee. :)

I'm a bad claw

I hope this still counts. I have been really really busy lately with things. My yoga has been going really well which is awesome. I just haven't been spending as much time online. The weather has been great out here so most of my time is spent running around enjoying the weather and getting things done. My spoilee's package is coming along nicely. I hope she will like it. I am almost done with the bag, yay. The hubs and I saw the movie australia this weekend. It was pretty good, I thought it was going to end a couple times throughout the movie but it would get to a point and then push through. Kind of strange. I cast on for a pair of Pomatomus and cast off a pair of Marlene's. Cookie A sock crazy lately apparently. I have a skein of sock yarn coming from sock pixie. I hope it comes soon! Well I am off. I have a bunch of things to do before noon. I am sorry I have been so worthless. :(
