Thailand Here I Come!

I've been spending most of the past week getting ready for my upcoming trip to Singapore and Thailand. I've picked out the clothes and pulled out the suitcase. My kitty is even giving me the evil-eye as I type since she's knows I'm leaving in a couple of days. She will be well taken care of by my boyfriend and my Mom, but she still doesn't like it when I'm gone. I will miss cuddling with her at night too!

That hasn't left a lot of free time for any of my knitting or other crafting projects. Because of that, I have been taking my Silk Shrug to work with me in the mornings so I can pull it out on my lunch break and get a couple of rows done. The body is starting to come along. It's at the point where I keep knitting, but it doesn't look like much is getting done. It's only when I take a picture every couple of weeks that I can see how much it's grown from the last picture. I'll only be able to work on it for three more days before I leave so this is what it's going to look like for awhile :)

I talked about my travel project in the last post, and as promised, I haven't touched it since. I'm excited to see how the cabled scarf, Elbac, will turn out. Hopefully, I'll come home from my trip with a completed (or near completed) scarf!

I will post about my overseas adventures when I return. I'm hoping to come home with some awesome pictures and some funny stories. In the meantime, I wanted to say a special "hello" to my friend Dave in Rome who, I just found out, reads the blog every week. I'm looking forward to having you back in the USA later this year.
