This is my plan for my secret sister shawl.  The main body in blue and the last edge in red.  I would have liked to mix it up more but this is all I have.  It's the left overs from my sister's sweater.  I decided to go with the recommended needle size even thought my gauge is not the same. I think it will be o.k.  It also starts with a provisional cast on for a garter tab which seems excessive.  Why can't you just do a garter tab?  So I'm going to. Hopefully tomorrow I will show you some progress.  I did work on my husband's sleeves but they are not fun to work on so I didn't make more progress.  If I don't get more stuffing for the ice cream pillow I'll cast on something new tomorrow.  I washed the baby mittens (in fragrance free soap), tied each pair together with a little tag and put them in snack bags.  I hope to mail them tomorrow.

...Alice is about what I expect right now.  He loves her, she loves him and they want to be together forever but that can't happen, someone will try to mess it up.  In the standard formula there is about to be a big miscommunication.  There will be tears and I suspect someone will threaten someone else's family.  It's not a bad drama I just would kind of like something a little funnier.

I think that's all I have to say today.  My life just isn't that interesting, it's pretty normal.  I'm at the point in the housework were I think might have the majority of it under control so I can start going through closets and storage.  I'm always nervous to do this as it seems to make a bigger mess.  We'll see what I get done.  I'll see you next time.
