Sprucing Up; A Birthday

I was getting a little tired of the old blog. I decided it needed a little sprucing up, a Solstice cleaning, redecorating. I think this is much better. Now if I can just quit being lazy and start posting once in awhile.

I must be in sprucing up mode, I've been working on the house as well. Slowly cleaning up and clearing out. Thanksgiving weekend I finally got one mess cleaned up that had been plaguing me for a long time. My former TV area:

I've also been making much progress on socks. I finished my niece's pair, and started the next, for my sister-in-law. I have more to say on that, and pictures, later.

The Dread Reverend's birthday was Saturday, and we had a little zombie-fest party. I got him "Day of the Dead," we had friends over, and they watched that movie plus others we had (Dawn of the Dead, Army of Darkness, I'm not sure what all else - not like we don't have quite a selection to choose from) and played the "Zombies" game.

Me? I just knitted socks the whole time.
