christmas: went to erie for christmas eve weekend, then came back sunday evening to celebrate our first "married" christmas together. we made a yummy breakfast, opened gifts, watched its a wonderful life, and all that fun stuff.
new years: had a really nice romantic dinner at dish, then stopped by a few parties before calling it a night.
house stuffs: the past 2 weeks we have been moving my sewing room into my office, so that we could put the contents of a master bedroom into the former sewing room/guest room to start the demo work on the master bedroom. we're quite cozy in there... queen size bed, 2 wide dressers, 1 tall dresser and 2 wardrobes. we have very little walking room, as its a tight fit. lets hope the renovations go smoothly so we aren't crammed in there for *too* long.
yesterday was our major demo day. suited up in our work clothes, respirators and eye gear, we removed the ceilings and started tearing down the wall between the 2 rooms.

after:
today ian is going to frame in the new wall, and then we need to finish carrying out all the garbage to the dumpster. fun! after that... a LOT of cleaning, then the actual remodeling can begin.
on to the knitting front: nothing. i don't think i've touched anything since before christmas. i haven't really had the time to sit and relax and start any new projects. i still need to block my swallowtail shawl, start on my green raglan, and post photos of the in-the-round baby sweater. i think it turned out great :)
other than that, we've been hitting the gym pretty regularly after meeting with a trainer to set up a new workout. all in all, i think its going to be a good year :)
happy new year!
