Progress Report for the Week...

So I set a big list of to do things for the week on Tuesday.  I accomplished almost everything on my list.  

After procrastinating for several months I finally finished Paul's Beer Gloves and his matching hat.  Both patterns from Son of Stitch n Bitch.  Last year I knit a sweater Paul -- he hasn't been wearing it because the zipper is out of  alignment and the hood was miles too big.  I tackled downsizing the hood and the zipper will have to wait till next week.  I only have 1.25 inches left to  knit on Paul's birthday socks then I can start shaping the toe...Hurray I might actually finish Paul's birthday present in the same month as his birthday!  (We won't mention that his birthday was on the 3rd and its now the 26th).  I will post pictures on Monday of all my finished products.

Wednesday was my designated shopping day so that Paul could take the car to work and I could get to bed at a decent hour, since tomorrow (Friday) is my Monday once again.  I went crazy at Fredmeyer's buying a bunch of different seeds for my garden this year.  All of the Lilly Miller and Ed Hume seeds were 40% so I couldn't pass up a good bargain.  Next week's list of do things will have seed mats on it....

As for the rest of my to do list...the cooking for weekend is done.  Laundry is a work in progress.  Its much easier to do one load a day than try to do it all at once.   Today I just happened to skip even one load.  Maybe I'll get one in before I go to work tomorrow....

1. Finish Paul's Gloves - Done
2. Access the Damage done to Paul's hat when Jasper pulled out the plastic bill and put in another bill to finish hat. -- Done
3. Buy Seeds -- done
4. Work on Paul's socks -- check still a work in progress
5. Make seed mats - moved to next week's to do list
6. cook for the week - done

Its almost time to start gardening this year.

This week will be a week to focus on completing projects.  The three projects that stick out most for me to complete are Paul's hat, gloves and birthday socks.  

My fun shopping for the week is buying garden seeds for my square foot garden that I'm attempting this summer.  My goal is to keep some of it going year round so that Paul and I can enjoy fresh vegetables without going to market all the time.  I saw this cool idea on another blog while I was at work yesterday to make seed mats for my garden with single ply paper-towels.  I really like the idea.  

To do list for the week:
1.  Finish Paul's Gloves
2. Acess the damage done to Paul's hat when Jasper pulled out the plastic bill and put in another bill and finish hat.
3. Buy Seeds
4. Work on Paul's socks
5. Make seed mats
6. cook for the week
7. laundry
