This is my favorite shawl that I made.  It's actually made from silk yarn.  The body of the shawl is easy but the border was kind of difficult.

I played WOW on Saturday.  I did get some leveling done.  My level 90 is one point away from getting all her banquets done.  Blizzard released details about the new expansion pack.  My husband is so excited.  I actually don't like new expansions.  I feel like I just get used to one and they have to go and change it.  I tend to be a laid back, slow player and all the fast ones are done with everything and bored.  I'm just not excited especially since many of the things are for raiders and I am not one.  Also I tend to like every other expansion and this is the "other" one.  I'm sure it will grow on me but right now I feel a bit like a scrooge. 

I listened to a lot of podcasts yesterday.  Fiberista Files, Knitabulls, Skein after Skein and Homespun. Heather (Fiberista Files) talked about her retreat.  It sounded lovely but I don't know if I will ever be able to attend.  The Knitting Pipeline one is closer so I have a better chance of getting to that one.  Something is weird with either the website or something but I have an hard time listening to Homespun.  I didn't even get to Dramatic Knits or Knitting Pipeline.  I'll have to listen to that next time.

Today I'm not getting much done.  The kids are home so it throws off my plans.  I even skipped my exercise today and Friday.  I have to get back on track.  I think tomorrow I'll watch Flower Boy Ramin Shop. I watched one episode and was not thrilled but the rule is three episodes. 

I made lots of little shapes for my nephew.  I may make one or two more but I think I'm done with that.  I usually make baby blankets for everyone but when my littlest niece was born my sister was asking for cloth diapers so I bought her that instead.  My son is very distressed that she didn't get a baby blanket like the rest of the cousins so I may have to do that for Christmas. Other than that I think I will buy the rest of the presents.  I made a doll once for one of the nieces and it was horrid I don't want to make that mistake again.

I really enjoyed getting back to my sweater again.  I worked on the second sleeve and got up to just before the second leaf pattern.  That means it's only 12 more rounds till I join the sleeves.  I'm nervous.  I think I may finish this sweater early.  As my NerdWars dissertation I planned for it to take me till the end of December.  At this rate I'll be 100% finished by the end of November (including blocking, weaving in ends and adding buttons).  The farther I get on it the more I really hope it fits. 

I was looking at my stats and it said that someone form Malaysia had looked at my page.  This made me smile.  My best friend from high school was born in Malaysia.  Her grandmother was from India and made the best food.  I don't know if it was Indian of Malaysian food but it was so good.  I'm afraid of going to an Indian restaurant as I don't think anyone's cooking can live up to grandma's cooking.  I miss my friend.
