monday morning...
the weekend was great.

gave the house a five hour long deep clean
which it desperately needed
(actually, i desperately needed...
what i have found out from re-reading my morning pages
is that i am much calmer and creative
when the house is clean and organized)

now the plan is
to only do "upkeep" for the rest of the week
in order to keep it in the current state...
i'm trying to be optimistic,
but....
i also know my children...
heh.

as promised,
here are pictures from my
amazing mini swap with flitknits
hopefully, she will be receiving our
package sooooooon :)

this does not do it justice.

there are more pictures
here and here

i also wanted to show something
i was pretty dang proud of
(being a new knitter and all, heehee)
this is for my dad...
it is a cell phone holder
and was kind of done as a joke...
i wanted to make him something
outrageous
just to see the look on his face...
it worked out very well.

his cell phone is an older one
and is quite large, if you are wondering about the size.
