My first blog

I've never blogged before and had no idea how to start one. I came to visit someone else's blog and I'm now doing my own. Yet another thing to keep track of. I'm a yarnaholic and if I don't knit or crochet, I'll die. I love to read, but sometimes, I need to be soothed by the yarn in my hands and books can put me to sleep if I'm over-exhausted, as I often am. Right now I've been postponing finishing some of the UFOs. I need to finish them. I need to finish my squares for Baker's Dozen (send off May's and finish June's and then start on July's), finish Carrie's socks (I want no regrets in my life one day when she's gone), rip out Alberto's sleeves and redo them, and do his collar as well to finish that sweater, which he won't wear until the Fall anyway. I need to do scarves, fingerless gloves and socks for the girls, a black sweater for Juan Carlos, a clapotis for Marcelo, a shrug for Diana. I want to do a sweater for myself too. I would love to knit for Tona, but I don't know his size or his taste. So many projects, so little time.
