Halfway through the month

and the hallway, kitchen, bathroom and toilet have been redecorated. Now there is J's bedroom and the front room left to do. It seems like a marathon and my arms and shoulders are aching. I can't wait until it is all over and I can do some sewing and knitting again, much easier on the muscles.

I did manage to summon enough energy together this evening to sew J's jumper together, so there is at least one finished object this month.

I have a ball of yarn left over from this jumper, so I think I may get a couple more balls and do one for D, probably a different pattern. I think that may have to wait until next month.

I was wondering where you were! December is never a good time to redo everything but just think how cozy it'll be for the holidays! Good for you. Love the jumper.

I love that sweater (I know, I know - UK jumper = US sweater, but I can't get used to it!)

Wow, I will call you Super Woman! Good job all around. Your kitchen looks great and so does the sweater. You deserve some rest. Hugs, Linda

Lovely jumper. Kitchen looks great - there's one here that needs a revamp, if you feel inclined. LOL ;0)
