This morning I set my alarm for 7 to get up early and study for my upcoming CardioPulm test. But unfortunately I hit 7pm instead of 7am. By the time I finally got up and ready to go it was 10:30. Naturally this was a bad start to my day. I headed out to Panera as my goto study spot, ordered a sandwich and sat down ready to start podcasting last weeks lectures. But before I began I decided to run though my daily "email - facebook - blog check" routine. Bad idea.
I immediately realized that today is Sew Mama Sew's give away day. There are well over 100 blogs participating in giving away free goodies. Needless to say I spend about 3 hours trying to win adorable tote bags, homemade marshmallows, knitted scarves, patterns, etc. It was a wonderful way to spend 3 hours, but I really should have been learning about how action potential is generated in the heart. All this time looking at crafts makes me really want to finish up my christmas knitting projects. Its a long list, so it'll take some time:
-M sweater ornament for grandma [done]
-Chunky knit hat for grandma to wear (she has had the same white hat since I was 5 yrs old)
-P stocking ornament for grandpa
-Chunky knit hat for grandpa since I cant make one for my grandma and not my grandpa
-Tissue holders (x4) for various family members
- J sweater or stocking or hat ornament for my mom
-Ribbed cowl and seed stitch arm warmers for me
-Full size stocking for Malinda [done]
I've now wasted so much time thinking about christmas presents and trying to win give aways that I decided to write my first blog post. As you can see my blogs will mostly consist of pointless ramblings about tests and knitting projects, with occasional funny clinic stories. In the spirit of give away day, the first person to find this blog and post a comment will win a stocking ornament with a design of their choice (fair isle, letter, zig zag, tree) with the base pattern found here. But if you live outside the US you might not get it until after christmas. This is an example I made for myself:
I guess its time to finally start studying, so have a happy give away day!!
