As The Year 2004 Comes To A Close I Wish To Thank...

• my husband for letting me knit everywhere and anywhere without rolling eyes and the earlier sighs
• my mother (the "Stitch Doctor") for teaching me to knit and being so patient with my "emergency" calls to help repair/decipher/frog my first pathetic attempts
• my father for accepting the above phone calls without bitching while I was clearly disrupting "your mother's CSI"
• my children for not freaking everytime they say "Mum?" and I say "I'm counting, hold on"
• my various friends, neighbours, relatives and other assorted victims that have simply gushed when I have given them my pathetic attempts
• the earlier yarn store employees that answered my stupid questions without totally cracking up and losing control of bodily functions
• again, my husband, for not really looking too hard at the credit card receipts and wondering how you spend $202.02 at a place called "The Yarn Tree"
• and finally all the bloggers that take the time out of their busy days to read the mindless rubbish that I post once or twice a week

Merry Christmas, everyone and may 2005 be healthy, happy and fulfilling to all of you.
