Too cold...

...to work in my room upstairs.

As everywhere else in Europe the past weeks, it has been very cold. So I decided to move my computer downstairs, where I have no internet, but my view on the garden makes up for that.

January had a very hectic start, so I try to get a bit of rest in the evenings. I'm knitting a green cardigan, a rather easy pattern, because I like to knit while watching television.

Our Christmas tree is waiting to get planted, all the decorations were put in their boxes till next year.

The snow started to melt today, time to put a bit of spring in my house.

Crafting for Christmas

A week before Christmas, I decided to make a few gifts myself. This year, we had a Christmas party with friends, and we had to give something to this lovely couple. I needed projects that I could finish in a week, so I made:
a scarf for him

and a pair of socks for her.


After all the partying and eating, I had a very lazy sunday. I did a bit of ironing, a bit of reading, and I made a resolution list for 2010. I wonder what will come of it.

Sometimes it's a good idea to take the example of a cat, and sit by the fire and relax and meditate a bit.
I'm ready for the new year and the work that got piled up on my desk!

A happy 2010!

For all of you out there: a lovely, creative, healthy and happy 2010!
