I often wonder how many times I can talk/write about my work in progress before I bore my readers. I don’t want to mention it in every post (unless its something spectacular). But I finish small project within a few days and I often forget to mention them when I tell you what I’m working on. So I will start …
Knitting & Arrested Development
Only three sleeps left until the glorious return of Arrested Development. I am ridiculously excited and can’t wait to see the crazy antics of the Bluth Family.
