Finds 'n' Fancies

It's been so unseasonably cool and rainy here these past few days that the lethargy that has taken over the outdoors has finally managed to settle in my bones. I was going to try to resist it and post something opposite to the view outside my window, but I couldn't muster enough strength. I hope you all don't mind too much. And I really hope the lethargy doesn't get you, too. It's not so good for productivity. I won't say for sure, but I may have watched The Young Victoria a minimum of 5 times within a 72-hour time span.

So, what have you all accomplished this week? (And, lest you think I'm a total waste of space, I did manage to make a necklace and have plans to start another when I'm done with this post. While that's barely a chink out of the ol' "to-do" list, it's something, right? Right?!)

Here's hoping the fire under your butt has not gone out! --Katie :D

    I wish that was the weather we were having... really cold here, we've even got the central hearing on - brrrr!
    Well done for making a necklace! I have knitted a little cat for my daughters 3rd birthday this weekend, and been baking. It's been a real stay indoors week for me ;-)
