... and I knew that you meant it

time for the 2 week update. as usual, its been pretty crazy. the cold i had during my last update lasted much longer than i was expecting, so i was out of commision for quite a bit. i haven't been hit by a cold like that in quite some time, so freelancing + house work were out of the question. i was able to catch up on some knitting and reading while recovering. i am almost done with the hourglass sweater [pics to come], with only an inch left to finish. once thats done, ill pick up on the socks again. my SP sent me another very sweet package, which definitely cheered me up. lots of sock making supplies, and some more chocolate for valentines day. yay!

speaking of valentines day, ian and i made it out to ibiza for dinner. i was not a big fan. it may have been the cold throwing me off, but we weren't that impressed. we exchanged some lovely gifts, [mostly involving chocolate, yummy], and celebrated ian's birthday as well. we did go out on friday night for a special celebration and enjoyed dinner at hot metal grille.

the past week i've been feeling much better and have been catching up on all the freelance work, some house stuff, and bunches of other things i can't quite remember. oh wait, thats right.... i'm engaged! yes, loyal 3 readers, you read that correctly, and i'm as happy as ever.

a little sleepy, but really happy :)


calling our families...


being all smoochy...


and, ta da, the ring..



feel free to send congratulations, advice, gifts, and of course, chocolate :)
