Guess What I Did?

Guess what I did today?
OK, I won't make you guess. I do way too many weird things in a day to subject someone to that sort of torture.
I actually.......
Are you ready for it?
I went online,.........
and............
Alright, I know, I know. That can be a bit annoying.
I bought a book online.
Look out world. I am exploring the Internet. (I start the word Internet with a capital to convey respect. It is such a huge being, I can't possibly take away from it by using a lower case letter).
I was very hesitant at first. By hesitant, I mean, I was very nervous, twitchy, scared, etc.
I had to do it though.
I was on my new addiction.
No, no, no, no. Get you mind out of the gutter for a little while.
I was wandering around Ravelry and found that my other addiction (knit blog) had a book out.
I love this site called the: http://www.theanticraft.com/
So, I actually got the nerve to look for the said book.
I had a little glitch though. I accidentally ordered two. I'm not sure how I managed this little glitch. I think I misread the instructions in all of my excitement.
If there is anyone out there who would like a copy of this book, I will be more than happy to give to you. All I would ask is you pay for the postage. Does this sound fair?
The only condition is you are patient. I did not request any special delivery. I simply went for the bare minimum.
Tomorrow is Friday!!!!!
This weekend I will not have the pager, so I am very glad for the weekend to arrive.
I hope you are all keeping well. Take care. :)

WooooHooooo

Guess what I won! Okay, I'll tell you. I won a turkey! How cool is that. I tell you, it caught me off guard. I won it at a turkey shoot. For those of you, like me, who have never heard of this before, let me tell you about. A co-worker came in with a piece of cardboard. It had all these circled numbers on it. I was told to select a circle. Another person, shoots at this piece of paper. Where the most amount of buckshot lies, is the winner. This northern girl knows her buckshot!

I am now the proud owner of a 16 pound turkey!



On a sadder note, I still have my nasty cold. I have not had a sound night's sleep for many nights now. I hope this will change. I am off to play Wii. I have to finish Paper Mario. It is my new addiction :)
Have a great night everyone!

Very Exciting

I am very restless this night, or early morning. It is Sunday. It is always hard to get to sleep on Sunday. I wonder why that is? You would think that with a restful weekend, it would be easy to fall asleep. You would be at peace with your inner self or whatever its called.
I just checked on my status for this site, Ravelry. I am now 67 in a very long line. I just took a tour to see what it is all about. I hadn't quite understood before. A friend mentioned the site to me. She said it is really cool. Okay, those are not her words. She has a way better command of the English than me.
Anyway, the part that really appeals to me is the organization of it all. I can keep track of everything if I use the site to its fullest. It just seems to be right up my alley.
I have had a great week end. I have watched quite a few good movies: Perfume, Sideways and Fantastic Four, (with Silver Surfer). I also made excellent progress on Hubby's sweater. When the light is better, I will definitely snap some pics to show everyone.
I hope you all had an excellent week end. Take care. :)
