Merry Christmas to All!

Christmas is a time of giving. It is also a time when I try to put myself in debt so that no one gets left out:) Not that I am complaining! I have always enjoyed giving gifts more than receiving.


This year though, Bill one upped me! I got a fabulously fantastic sparkly expensive gift! And a bit early to boot!


Drum roll please!!............


I am now officially engaged! Never in a million years did I ever think that would happen. I had become very set in my pre spinster days prior to meeting Bill. Happily working away with horses, painting (houses) and of course knitting. When out of the blue he walks into my life.


It all happened like this..... We had a broken window at one of the rental properties and called on his families glass company to repair it. I met the service guy at the townhouse and proceeded to ask about Bill (married, kids, etc), his siblings, and family in general, but mainly about Bill because we went out on one date many, many years ago:) I thought nothing of it and after the workman was done locked up and went on my merry little way. Later that evening Bill called. We talked for a good length of time and agreed to meet for a date the following day. We have barely spent a day appart since!


And that leads me up to yesterday. We were on our way out to eat. When I asked him what pocket of his jacket needed stitched up and started to reach in. He pulled back got down on one knee in the kitchen and the next thing I knew..... I was giggling like a manic....hehehehehe....hehehehe
And have been ever since. I this pic of the ring with in the first few minutes. . . hehe Talk about a fabulous Christmas! I hope one and all have such a great christmas!

I taught myself to knit by watching a woman while on a flight from Scotland to the USA in 1996.

I taught myself how to spin yarn Feb 15th, 2007. I think I've done fairly well:)
