lack of time and attention span

ok, so i've been reading everyone's blogs and thinking that i should really post about my xmas and show pics of my knitting and blah blah, but i just haven't had the time or attention to do it yet, but i will!! i promise, pinky swear :)
still finishing the wavy scarf and told my sister that i'd have it done by the end of the month. that's gonna be tough cuz i also have a scarf for my hubby's 16 yr old cousin to finish by 2/1 and another gift to be done by the end of the month, too (not sure who reads this, so i will keep it quiet lol). i still have to get the yarn for the secret gift, and i just finished up a purdy red and purple dishcloth for my grandma (she's into the "red hat lady" stuff, hence the color choice) for her bday on thursday. i'm knit knit knitting away...too bad i have to go to work lol
started a new diet to lose the 50 lbs i've gained in the last year or so...south beach diet, week 1 down, lost 8 pounds - woohoo! it's definitely motivating me to keep it up and so far it's been easy and fun (yes, the diet has been fun for me...eating stuff that i don't normally eat on weight watchers), so that's good.
well, gotta get to work...busy busy busy! i'll try to post some pics of xmas gifts that i knitted and received real soon! in the meantime, here are the awesome slippers that my friend jill knitted for my bday, which i've been meaning to post forever! thanks, jilly :)))
