Well, Christmas is just over a week away and I'm still weaving away to my heart's content, I'm ready to loose my sanity at a moment's notice, my foot is killing me, and my birthday meltdown is over. Ok, now to back up and go over each of those.
I still have 2 scarves to weave by christmas. I'd be further ahead of where i am, but I am a little discouraged by my last scarf. I chose a yarn that wasn't a good choice for warp yarn and it kept breaking. I ended up making the scarf short and have yet to warp again.
This time of month I'm always close to loosing my sanity. December I'm always closer to the edge. This year I'm even closer due to the meltdown over my birthday. That was earlier this month. It was one of those birthdays some people don't look forward to and I was one of them. I was having a meltdown about it. Thankfully I got over it before my b-day so I had a good b-day.
As for my foot, it just started hurting for no reason at all.

The Soul's Obsession
Holiday crafting is going along extremely well. I got 1 scarf woven in 1 night and am working on another one. I still have 3 to do by Christmas which will get done. I'm also knitting one for an Aunt of mine. I have pictures going up over on Ravelry under the screen name of VangeKnitter whenever I get a project done.
The glass fusing is also going well too. My friend is putting a tree up in her store where we can make ornaments to put on it for people to buy. My roommate & I have about 10 ready to go on and who knows what is in the kiln too. It puts me in the holiday mood. I'll eventually post pics of everything.

First Flight
Ahhh, a quieter week. That left time for knitting and weaving. Knit and weave is what I did.
I did my 5" on the scarf that I had for Scarf Travels (a round robin travelling scarf) and got it off to the next person. The next one will arrive next week. I also got a bit more done on Robbyn's Christmas or Birthday Present. idk which it will be yet. Sandy's scarf is also on the go now. Who knows what will happen over the weekend with it.
The mantle Scarf is almost done. If we're lucky it'll be done tonight. It won't be the best, but it'll be better than nothing and I'll include a note to make a new one next year. For starters it's narrower than intended even though I double, no triple checked my math and it should have come out right. Also it's somehow coming out 30" shorter than it's supposed to! I have no clue how that happened either. I remeasured the spots I used and those are the right length. I guess for a 4th weaving project and a 1st with dimensions to meet I came close.
As for the weekend my roommate & I will be manning a table for NAMI at an annual Health & Wellness Fair. It's fun. Last year my roommate % I got our picture taken with the Governor.

The Obsessed Time
What a week. It's been one hectic one. The hilights being getting the next section of Scarf Travels in the mail and having my friend's store tomorrow. TOday also had part of the most trying part of the week.
One of the monthly meetings was today. We've been developing a mission statement and today was the final part. Trying to get 20+ people to agree on 1 thing can make people want to pull their hair out. I actually left the room at one time. I would have pulles out knitting & worked on it, but feared for my knitting.
Oh, before I forget, I got the title for this post from Random Title Generator and any other entries with titles that don't make sense you can figure cane from here (i'll try to remember to tag them).
