100th post

I’ve been sick and am leaving for a trip to FL soon. I couldn’t muster the energy to try my hand at a contest. I’ll save that for my 1st anniversary.

So, to honor the occasion, here's JavaJems Meme.

I thought it was cool. I’ve accomplished more than I thought I have since I started knitting, and there’s still so much I want to learn!

Consider yourself tagged if you want to do it and let me know in the comments so I can read yours!

Bold type for stuff you’ve done, italic for stuff you plan to do one day, and normal for stuff you’re not planning on doing. I love how it’s worded “stuff you’re not planning on doing” notice how it doesn’t say “NEVER”.

Yeah! Congrats on 100 posts! I just got back from las vegas yesterday - I'm beat! Too many margaritas and then hopping on a plane with screaming children all around me are not a good combo!!!
