Blog meme

I was just tagged with a blog meme by Monica Silvia in this post on her blog: http://1knitscarf.com/2008/04/04/tagged-with-a-blog-meme-6-things-you-like-to-do-and-tag-6-other-knitting-bloggers.aspx

This is the first time I've done this, so I'll give it a go. The way I've understood it, I have to write six things I like to do, and then tag six other bloggers with a comment on their blog. Six things I like to do, besides knit, are:
~Read. When I find time away from knitting, I like to find a chair, curl up, and get away from the world in general.

~Play piano. I can't stand new songs, but I love playing complex ones that I've got down pat.

~High jumping. I don't get to do it very often, but when I do, I love the thrill that I get when I clear the bar.

~Singing. Especially singing songs that I like.

~Listening to worship music. It really helps me get my priorities back in line.

~Eating chocolate. What more can I say?

Now I have to find six other bloggers. I'm onto it. I'll update as I find them.

Ok - Number 1) Kim at http://kbshee.blogspot.com/

Experimenting!

I've decided that I like this layout better. I don't like scribe so much.

In knitting news, my fingerless mittens are flying along. I'd better abandon the computer in a few minutes to keep working. I might be able to finish one of these today, it depends. I also have two more cell phone covers to sew up - one brown, like below, and one a candy kind of fluffy pink. If I finish the mitten, and get those two covers sewn up (and maybe a third, if I finish 
the knitting), then I'll probably make another pink one, because I think those will go down well at school.

It was palm Sunday at church today, which was fun. I've just got my braces tightened on Friday, and had elastics put between my teeth, which is no fun.

There's not much going on this week at school. We've got Friday off, for Good Friday, and then Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. It was only going to be till Tuesday, which was an inset, but then the clever authorities finally realised that because of Leap Day, we would be one day over the set amount. So, Tuesday is an official holiday, and Wednesday is the inset. I'm 
hoping to get my mittens finished, and I'm going to see if I can get some cotton yarn to take to Italy, because I'm making dishclothes for my Grandma while I'm there. Knitting mainly, but I'll probably do one or two crochet, so I can put them in my carry on and work on them while waiting for flights. I can't think of any way that I won't be allowed to carry on a stubby wooden crochet hook.
