My latest obsession...

This is my inner monologue lately...  When can I knit next? Can I squeeze in a couple rows before little V goes to school, maybe while she's napping or finishing her lunch?  What am I going to knit next?  Should it be the purple hat/scarf, how about the green seed stitch hat (autumn leaves) with the matching one for little V?  I am in the midst of a "selfish knitting month."  (thanks for giving it a proper name French Press Knits)  I spent alot of time the last few months creating things for those I love, I decided in Jauary I would create some of the things I have been wanting to make for myself.  Now it has become an obsession!  There is not enough time in January for me to complete all of these cool patterns I have found.  (You see, part of the obsession has also involved finding several cool websites too!)

So off I go to finish a row here and a row there...
