Jo Knits!

Almost forgot...... here are the pictures of my felted bags. LOL! You can check my august 1st entry to see the 'unfelted' bags to compare. I love them both! :)

Well my swimsuit is ready, got some new shorts that are eager to see the sun and Zoe's keep bugging me about when do we leave for our vacations. We are now doing the how sleeps until we go countdown. ;)

I have stopped dieting! LOL! How much can you loose at only a few days before leaving for a week. I am really liking how I feel though, incorporating exercise in my life right now makes me feel great. I will keep on walking and doing some yoga, might try to look into pilates too. Yeah I do have a short attention span so diversifying my exercise might help me keep at it! :) At least I'll have access for a full week to a beach and beautiful hiking trails, I can't wait to get there and see all the beauty of the place. :)

Yesterday I had a GREAT mommy&coffee meeting, can you believe for the 3rd week in a row I have been enjoying the company of these women! LOL! Those same people who thought knitting was so UGH! useless.... Well I'm showing them that adding a little kool aid and some felting can add great excitement to knitting. :) I am proud to have them interested in what I do, they now see me as the knitter and are surprised if I don't take my knitting project out as soon as I come in the room. "What will you knit next" they asked all eager to know! LOL! This makes me feel good, knitting is cool and I am just spreading the joy. Now if only they would start knitting too, now THAT would be ever better! ;) I have made friends with one of the moms there that I just couldn't stand, we now have nice conversations and I am pleasantly surprised to see the sensitive non-annoying person she really is! :) She has thanked me for the past 2 weeks on my attitude change towards her, it feels good to see that we bought have worked on our ways and are now both benefiting on a new friendship we are slowly building! :)

I tell ya, must be something in the air, I am just so dang HAPPY! :) Far from the depressed ~Jo~ some of you might remember from last winter. Exercise might be helping also I'm not on the computer as much, I try to do something different everyday. Even my mom noticed that I am being more active, trying to do fun things with the kids. Trying to be happy and enjoying the days that pass by. I hope others are as happy as I am right now. :)

hugs, have a great day. Why not take that extra step today to make someone smile! :)
