Time goes by so damn quickly...

So it has been too long since my last post and not much has really happened since last time.

My birthday was yesterday and I am 29 for the 4th time but overall there really isn't much that is really special about this birthday compared to last year. The gift list was a little more expensive this year and got sent to the in-laws so I got something from each side. I always say that I will get myself something but this year I did. I actually have a couple of things planned. One of them is a gym membership with a personal trainer.

When I quit smoking a couple of years ago, I literally packed on the pounds just about as fast as I could. This is not something that I am particularly proud of but they now need to come off. Walking is not exciting enough for me to be motivated enough to actually do. So the gym will be getting my money and I will be going at least three times a week to start.

On the book front, I finished Curse of Dawn. I found it as interesting and engaging as the previous three. Not much I can say that wouldn't give it away but definitely good.

I am currently reading Darkness Calls which I find out is really the second in a series I haven't even read book one in yet. Usually I hate starting in the middle of a series but this is written well enough that I don't feel as though I have missed a great deal for not reading the first one. Needless to say, book one is on the shopping list for this month though.

On the knitting front, I have finished anything yet but am making good progress on both the Lavender vest and the m-i-l's mitts. I might have some FO pictures in the next post.

That is it for now...
