F-r-i-d-a-y, Hey!

First, I LOVE MY IPOD! I am listening to the Audiobook "the Virgin's lover" By Philipa Gregory - It's about Queen Elizabeth, I. It's good stuff to knit to.
Now I need to start downloading some itunes!

This is how Banff has been languishing in my WIP pile...not even a needle - I don't even remember what gauge I got. I ripped, and will restart. But isn't that color just gorgeous? I forgot how much I love this shade of blue.

LAPIS

ROGUE:
The neck has been split, the left cable completed and the shoulder bound off, the right neck cable is complete and the shoulder about to be bound off...heading for the hood!

So hopefully since Pixie and I both have been stricken by THE ICK (strep throat for her, nasty little virus for me) I will be surrounded by kleenex, cable tv, and Rogue.

Have a happy valentine's weekend!

Have no fear, the hood is nowhere near as scary as it seems ;)

Oh no! Does this mean that THE ICK will mess with the weekend plans? I hope you feel better! I LOVE the Banff color! and I am looking forward to Rogue :)

Give me a call if you feel better, k?

I hope you feel better H!!! Sorry you are sick. :-(

That is a beautiful blue...but you have to finish Rogue first! Where is the picture of her?

Hope to see you tomorrow night!

I hope you and pixie feel better soon. Have a nice relaxing knitting day today :) Can't wait to see Rouge!

Feel better soon. Over.

Feel better soon, Ms. Pixie.

I think it's cool that you get to talk that way at work. Sure beats "in order to proceed with the issuance of the senior secured notes we need to carry out a due diligence..." YAWN. Can I come over to your office and pretend to be Heather for a day?

That pink iPod mini is the cutest! I'm very much in love with my green mini, and totally understand how you feel.

Hey! Just rec'd my Noro in the mail tonight! Thanks SO much...it's just beautiful. My husband was particularly impressed with the NASA stationary...and the fact that it was grid paper the reverse side...now...tell me who is the geek! You made two people very happy up here in cold, wintry Canada! Thanks again Heather...counting down the days to see Duran Duran in Toronto!

I hope you and Pixie are feeling better, H. I miss catching up with you. I can't wait to see how Rogue turns out.

Hey! Did you decide to go with Recorded Books? I got my first order yesterday and am thoroughly thrilled. The order came pretty quickly too. I love that I have a book "on deck" as I am finishing one up. Keep me updated on what you are reading uh-listening to! Hope you are feeling better!

I just saw that Philipa Gregory book at B&N last night, & it sounds like one I would like. Glad to hear your recommendation. Hope you and your Pixie are feeling better!

I just got my ipod (partially from your influence) and have been ripping my cds. I am going to have to try audible...BTW is there some sort of referral prize you get? If so, let me know what info I'll need so you can get a free book or something.

By now you should be done with Rogue--where is she?? I want to see :-)
