My new home and some new knits...

ok, lots of photos.. you ready for this?

I will get photos of the town i live in (cause its surrounded by mountains and its beautiful) when its nice outside. its definately cold and dark right now... anyways... this is the inside of my place. its a basement suite in a house. its cute. and a good size for me and leslie (and a good price)

This is the view to the left of the door when you first come in. On saturday i will be getting my fabric and some more of everything so this view will be changing...
this is just turned a little more to the right to see more of the kitchen. its a great size and has a good oven and fridge.
this is over a little more to the right. there is our movie and book shelf and then theres the hallway to the bathroom and thats it down there. and then our living room area. those are me and leslies old grannie knitting chairs. the bendy lights focus down onto each of our chairs. im on the right there.. this will also change because we are getting some different furniture and such in on saturday... the place came well furnished. 2 beds, a tv, coffee table, 2 chairs, kitchen table as well as some dishes and pots and pans and cutlery and cups... its a GREAT score.
this is alittle more to the right. these are me and leslies rooms right off the living room. im on the left. i gave leslie the bigger room because she lived ina closet last year. literally. a closet...
and this is more to the right on the other side of the living room theres our tv and super nintendo.. our savior.. Tetris and Dr Mario are getting a good workout. and then thats back at the door there.


this is the view from the corner of my room out. pretty much what you see is what you get. it doesnt have a closet. just a bar above my bed that i can hang clothes on. its a good thing i dont own much clothing cause it hangs over my bed... also to the left is my minimal floor space which holds.... randomness...

So thats my house... like i said.. pics of Golden to come..

onto the knitting
Theres nothing to do really here. its a mega small town and im BROKE. so i have been knitting my stash like a mad woman.... seriously. i have knit a BUTT LOAD since being here. i dont think im going to write much about these knits. there is details on ravelry for those who play there... but just ask any questions that you have for any of these items aiight.














and i havent even really made a dent in my box o' stash....

much more knitting to come... soon sewing... thanks for all the well wishes everyone.. you all rock my socks!!
oh yeah, and i guess i should say more about new town life. i got a job and have worked 2 shifts so far its in a really cool laid back cafe that features AMAZING food. lots of vegetarian choices and more "exotic" items. not just your boring ol sandwhiches and such. its all homemade. locally owned and operated and yeah.. it rocks alot. i get to wear whatever i want to work (well, workable clothes, but band shirts and jeans or whatever) its pretty cool. and i am getting good hours and the pay is good too. which is good cause like i said.. im EFFIN BROKE. and i have lots to pay for this month. including my trip to see Tool again.. yes i know. im broke. shouldnt i be prioritizing.... MEH... i just have to work harder i guess..

I MISSED THE INTERNET. i admit. im a junkie.. but theres not much else to do here in my new home... not till it gets a little busier with all the tourists and such..
more on that in another post.

WOW. a wordy and picture filled post. GO ME!

Those hats are awesome! I'm definitely going to check out Ravelry to see about each. I'm so happy that you found an awesome place to live. Can't wait to see town photos.

Awesome diggs, looks very cozy and homey. Love the hats, as well. You've been busy.

I love all those hats! They look great. I've been slowing down on the knitting cuz the schedule is getting busier. It doesn't help that its getting colder and people are requesting knitting from me. I need to charge $.
