I got It!!!! Yes I did I got a new Ott lamp for Christmas....my DH got it for me and I love it. It is the floor model and it works wonderful. I didn't realize how mch I have been losing out on seeing until I switched this lamp on. What a huge difference it makes I can actually see black now...
I also went shopping with my gift card that my DS gave me and I got some pretty yarn at Michaels. It was on sale, so I couldn't resist...I bought 3 colors for a pony tail cap and the other 5 for a pocket scarf, and then I have 5 others for a scarf and maybe another hat...
In the evening I have been working on my new puzzle and have it pretty much together...boy this one is a harder one...
I finally finished my Christmas socs for next year...I am going to add some dots to the bottom and use them as slipper socks, maybe give them to my niece...I even added bells to the Pointsetta flower..

We had our annual Spring Fling Party, and this year we added a theme, "The Ugly Sweater" it was so much fun!!! The gals were great and all put their thinking caps on and wore some type of gaudy sweater, half made sweater, and even one that was to be in the future.. LOL.... I hung up photos from last years party from the fan with yarn, we played games and Pat won the door prize of an "Ott" lamp, Donna won the "Guess how much Yarn is in the Pail" yummy....I won the yarn in the left, center, right game...wow...and Priscilla and Shanda were kind enough to bring a basket full of yarn and donated it to the winner of the yarn and I got it all!!!! I'm a happy camper...now to start making projects...I have been online looking for more patterns all day.. :) Pat won the "Ugliest Sweater" and Donna won "The sweater to mever see the light of Day again" and Patricia won the "weirdest,or funniest" sweater having hung potholders all over her.. :) I decorated mine with tons of pins and buttons.....Shanda won the loot in one of our games....It was a grand evening and we all had a great time...chatting. knitting, and crocheting, and winning trophies, awards, and just munching away on the fantastic pot luck dishes...
I love our get togethers!!!! My yarn group is the best!!!!
