Another Christmas Present done

Mum's blanket for Christmas is off the needles. I just need to sew in the ends and it will be done. I have done 4 rows on Dad's blanket, no pictures yet.














And a close up of pattern














This is how much I have done on Jaywalker, it isn't a very clear picture, maybe next week I shall have a better one.














This weekend I hope to:
Get my Tribe members Christmas giftie done (well maybe the overseas ones)
Do atleast 4 repeats on Dad's blanket
Clean all the bathrooms (3) I hate that (thank goodness for Enjoi)
A few more rows on Jaywalker, so I can get a decend picture, like everyone else's lovely jaywalker socks.

I have to go shopping tomorrow and find something to wear to Seanna's 21st Party.

I would like to finish painting the bulkheads around the kitchen (12 months since the new kitchen went in - I want it done before Christmas)

I would like to paint above #2 son built in wardrobes (same as kitchen)

I would like to weed a small side garden and plant the Lavender I bought the other week before it dies in the pots.

We are having friends over Sunday arvo to show us their wedding photos in Bali in September, we had to cancel, which I am glad about now as it was when the bombs went off for the second time.

Wash Ruby's blankets from her kennel

And the list should end here as my weekend is only two days, not the 10 days I would need or like to have to do the above list.

I need to clean the outside windows (well the ones I can reach), I would have to do them with a bucket of water as we aren't allowed to use the hose to wash down any hard surfaces or vehicle, we have had these water restrictions for over 12 months now with no end in sight, I also want to wash all the floors (we don't have any carpet anywhere in the house, except for a carpet mat in #2 son's bedroom, but this may have to wait.

I will update with what I achieved next week. Wish me luck

I hope everyone is healthy and happy.

Talking of happy, my #1 son had a new drug this week for Crohns, he will need to have it every 8 weeks, it takes about 4 hours on the drip in hospital while being monitored, and it costs $4,000 a go, I am so glad our public hospital system is good at the moment as he doesn't have to pay, his specialist is the head of gastroenterology (Spelling ????) at the hospital, although the hospital system does seem to lack in some areas. So far he hasn't shown any side effect signs, and I hope that it works for him, as it doesn't suit everyone with Crohns.

I would really love to sit down outside with my knitting and a nice cold bourbon and coke, but I need to get to work. Thank God it's Friday.....Yippee
