Christmas! What!?!

I can't believe it, I'm still working on My-So-Called Scarf! Arggggg!!! I haven't been doing too much knitting lately, so its at a stand still. I was planning on making all these things for people for Christmas, but I guess that's a no go. I mean seriously, Christmas is going to be here before we know it. Its already all in the stores. I was in Home Goods last weekend and they were full of holiday decorations. I had to stop myself from buying the Christmukkah decorations for my apartment...one of my roomies is Jewish so we are a blended family this year which I'm actually very excited about! And by the way, if I hadn't mentioned it I LOVE my new apartment and the roomies! They are great! Anyway, it looks like only Dad will be getting a knitted gift this year. Next year I will be sure to plan better since I have ideas of what I want to knit people already. I just have to budget my time better.

2. I have a teddy bear that I sleep with (yes, even though I'm 23)...his name is Rump Rump after a bear in a book I had when I was little.
3. I don't like my food to touch on my plate, and when I eat I always eat veggies, meat, then starch for some reason.
4. I have a hereditary blood disease called hemochromatosis, which I was lucky to find when i was 14 because usually women don't show symptoms until later in life.
5. I'm a pop culture sponge...seriously, I can't get enough of US Weekly, OK Magazine, In Touch, etc.
6. I became certified in SCUBA diving for my senior project in high school, it was such a cool experience.
