My new toy!

For Valentine's Day, Doug got me an MP3 player! I was so excited! This is my first MP3 player and even though it was a little hard to figure out how to upload/delete songs, now that I know how it works, it's pretty neat! I'm most excited about listening to podcasts from my fave News/Talk Shows which I can't listen to anymore due to my new job.

The only complaint I have is that the player came "pre-loaded" with about a dozen songs. I HATE HATE HATE each one of these songs and have tried everything I can think of to erase them but cannot seem to do it! It is taking away space that I could use for songs I do like! I also like to use the "shuffle" feature and if I use this these songs also get mixed in which is frustrating! Any tech-savies here who have an idea on how to get rid of these songs???

If you know of any good podcasts, please let me know!!! I'm having a blast listening to them all!

A few FO's

The first pic I wantd to post is of the beautiful socks my swap partner made me in January! Aren't they cool? They fit my monster feet like a glove as well!!!!



As most of you know, I've been working on stitching together sqaures to give to the victims of the recent tornadoes down here in Florida. Here are the ghans I have completed thus far:



This last one was made completely by indiliu (from crochetville). She sent me the entire afghan! It's made with 2 strands of yarn and feels very soft and cozy. Whoever gets this one will love it, I'm sure!

I will have at least another 2 ghans before being finished but I hope I'll get enough squares for at least another 2 or 3 ghans. If you're thinking about donating some 12 inch squares, please leave a comment for me and I'll get in touch with you!

Thanks again to all who have donated so far!!!
