In my spare time...

Hi all! Just wanted to post an update...

In my spare time I've been crocheting hats! I learned to crochet over the summer at Great Yarns in Raleigh NC. During class I learned the basic stitches and made a washcloth/dishcloth. After I attempted to make a scarf and blanket, I realized those projects take a long time to complete. So....I'm on a hat kick! Here are a few pictures of some hats I've made. I also made a baby hat while at home in Salisbury....but left it there! :-( The pictures are made on the floor since I don't have any models...yet!

Big weekend coming up!


Hey guys...it's been a little bit since I posted! I have a big exciting weekend coming up this weekend. Friday night, my girl friends Liz, Kempton, Kyla and I are going to see New Moon! Liz and I went and bought our tickets today! We're all set...earlier this week we re-watched Twilight since it's been a year!


Tonight is our weekly Grey's Anatomy/Private Practice girls night! It normally happens over a bottle of wine, with girl talk during commercials...always a fun time!

Saturday night, Liz and I (with the help of Momma Schliebe and food network) will be cooking a TURKEY! We're having a big group of friends over for Thanksgiving dinner! The menu has been set and it's looking delicious! I have to work on Thanksgiving day, so I'll be celebrating Thanksgiving early with friends and family this year.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas too around here....I've seen people setting up Christmas tree stands, Santa is ready to take pictures with at Southpoint Mall, Christmas music on the radio, all the decorations are up...but it just doesn't feel like it's that time of year yet...its warm and not even Thanksgiving yet! It will be here soon though!

It's November already?!?



Isn't this a good looking Halloween party?!? I'm so thankful for the friends I have here in Chapel Hill. I told one of our friends that was at the party, anytime I'm feeling discouraged, I look at one of the video's that was taken called "The Boot Dance" and I can't help but smile and laugh! This group sure does have fun together!

We had 3 trick or treaters! It was the same three kids from last year too! I remember the mom was carrying one of the kids last year, but this year they were all walking up! I remember one was a ninja, one was a cat and one was something scary with a mask on! Cute! I remember that was the best part of Halloween...going around to friends houses and trick or treating!

Today was suppose to be my first day back to work since my tonsillectomy...but since I am overtime this week and we were low on patients, I was told to stay home. Today, I've spent lots of meaningless time looking online at shoes (Thanks to Oprah!), but also got some CCRN studying done! The cardiac portion on the exam is kicking my tail! It's not quite 6pm...and it feels like I should be putting on my pajamas...day light savings!!!

While eating dinner I heard this story on the news...
