When you are young...time drifts slowly by. As you get older...time starts flying by so fast that you just can’t keep up with it. I guess that’s the case with me. I have been a busy girl lately, as I’m sure everyone is. I have been trying to get flights together for Jordan (son) for aforeign exchange program in Japan. Kansai Gaidai University to be exact. He has been obsessed with going there for a long time. Well his dream just came true. He is leaving in January for LA to visit some friends & is then heading off to Osaka, Japan for 4 months. I’m so excited for him. Then there is lots of Holiday shopping, plans for getting our Holiday party together, etc, etc, blah, blah, blah…

On the Knitting Front…
I have slowly been working on Wall Street. I have 4 inches to go on the front and then I start the V-neck separation. I can’t wait to finish this handsome vest. It is the only present that my DH desires and I HAVE to get it done for Christmas to put under the tree. He is a hard one to get any gift ideas out of.
I also knit up a Chemo cap for a friends relative…

I used Patons 100% Merino wool.
I have not worked at all on Marina since Wall Street has to get done. This is the only gift I’m knitting for X-mas this year.

Workout News…
There is not much to tell you on this front. My back is still hurting enough that I really can’t work out like I was...yet. I have walked a few times...very slow...on the treadmill. That’s about it! I feel so out of shape. I can’t wait till I can start doing my usual workouts.

Heres a photo of our Birthday lunch at Cafe De Paris…

Moi, Heather &Lauren had a fabulous time. All our B-days are in November. Now if only Donna could have been there. She was out of town. We missed you D!
