I am the Person of the Year

Me little ol' me?? Time Magazine's 2006 Person of the Year?? I am honored. And so should you....as you my dear readers are also TIme's Person of the Year...because you use the content on the internet...and quite possibly create said content.

How awesome is that?

It's such a wonderful thing to live in this day and age all computer users contribute and learn and connect to things we might otherwise never have been able to do. It's a freedom we must all viciously protect.

On the personal front, the tree is finally up. The kids and I put it up last night. It's insane the amount of time it takes to straighten out all the branches and twigs on artifical trees. It's almost enough to make me buy a live tree, but then again I'd have to deal with sticky sap and needles on the floor. Anyway--kids love the tree and have spent many hours admiring their work and constantly repositioning the ornaments so they'd be just right. Now we are prepared for Christmas, just in case. (According to Micci).

Most of my Christmas knitting is done...just a few one day projects and acessories. I am getting some fun ideas for next year. I am eagerly awaiting my package from Knit Picks--the beginnings of a beautiful, respectable stash. More's on the way--we're driving up to Austin on Tuesday to cash in a gift certificate to a Yarnbow. I love free to me yarn. I can't wait to pet the silk, wool and alpaca.

One week to go...and then it's Christmas!
