Can one girl pack her apartment in just 2 days?

Will she be ready for the movers when they show up on Thursday?

Will the cats accidentally get packed in a box?

Only time will tell.

I’ve been in a crafting rut for a few weeks.

So why is it that all of a sudden I have all of these ideas? Right when I have to be packing my entire life into boxes and hauling it 3,000 miles cross-country?

Thanks, universe.

My life consists of nothing but packing boxes.

Endless packing of boxes.

More updates later.

I’m already missing the lovely, spring-like weather of last week. But it’s still better than the weather we had before that!

The snow outside was very pretty.

And of course I took the opportunity to wear my lovely knitted items! This is the finished version of the Patons Scarf:

My Mom was visiting, too, and she wore her new scarf and an easy hat I crocheted out of Patons SWS. Mary created the pattern, and the hats are super cute!

I admit–I have a very Lorelai Gilmore reaction to the first snow (she is my role model, after all) and I had to go outside to catch a snowflake or two.

But, as pretty as it is, snow has the unfortunate property of being COLD.

I’m ready for spring.

The weather here can’t make up it’s mind. Last week it was snowing, then a few days ago it was so hot I was wearing this:

Living proof that you can take the girl out of the south, but you can’t take the south out of the girl.

What was I doing in my redneck gear?

PACKING!

Because I am moving to….

San Francisco!!!

I’m really excited, and more than a little bit nervous.

The worst part is the packing–I hate packing all of my stuff up. Here’s the first box:

Doesn’t it look so sad and lonely, getting ready to move 3,000 miles away?

Needless to say, this doesn’t leave a whole lot of time for knitting, but I promise I’ll have things to show you soon.
