Progress is great

I finished the Cardigan on New Years Eve!  All washed and blocked and looks great.  I really wanted to get it done so I could get to my finishing touch projects.  As of 1:00 AM this morning I now have finished off David's socks that needed the toes and kitchner done, one pair of socks, for me, kitchnered and Sharon #1's Pop Up Paws kitchnered.  Basically that leaves just the side-ways sweater that needs finishing touches. 

Off the knitting topic, I got my kitchen electric problems fixed this last week, gave my recliner away and was given a very comfortable couch.   When I found out my friends were going to get rid of the couch I was excited to be able to get it!  Finally I can lay down to watch tv when I'm just to tired to knit and want to watch the end of a movie before going to bed!  I had to move all my furniture around several times until I was finally satisfied with where everything ended up.  I admit the arrangement looks weird, but it suits my needs and I'm happy.  I had to move my smaller couch into the bedroom, for the time being.  It is backed up against the foot of my bed!  Hey, I've found it is sort of nice to have a place to sit while putting on my shoes and socks!   

My next project is getting 2 new windows put in and starting on the upstairs.  I need to straighten out my 2nd floor attic, now that the electrical problem is fixed.  Then I can clean up the Pile It bedroom and move my single bed in there, from the large 2nd floor bedroom.  Then I will get some guys over to move my 1st floor bed and dresser to the large up stairs bedroom.  This project will take some time because it isn't as easy as it sounds to get everything in order.  I sure hope I find a few things up there that I've been looking for!
