So I finally pulled my finger out and finished the Can Can scarf. It didn’t take long, but I lost interest in it pretty quickly after I’d started it.
\nThis doesn’t bode well for when various family members see it and want one, does it?
\nAnd now you get to see what happens when you leave a 17 year old alone with a tacky scarf and a camera with a self timer. If you make it to the end, I’ve got some exciting news! (How’s that for bait?)

\nI’ve been pretty busy, and Em was bored so I told her to “go take a few pictures”.

\nI really must teach her the meaning of “a few”. What you’re seeing here is what’s left after I culled a bunch. I think there were about 90 pictures to choose from.

\nDo you think she likes taking pictures of herself? This is what we find every time we check out the contents of the various memory cards laying about the house.
\n

\nBy the way, she got her HSC results last week, and she did much better than we expected. (If Facebook had been a subject, she would’ve done even better!!) She also learned that she passed her audition for the course she wants to do. No official notifications until next month, but it’s looking pretty good right now, which is a great relief to everyone.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nI think that one is my favourite!
\nAnd my exciting news? Calico & Ivy<\/a> is a fabric\/yarn store in Perth which is opening it’s doors in Sydney on January 10. You can get a sneak preview of the gorgeous store here<\/a>.
\nThe most<\/i> exciting part? I’ll be working there, Mondays and Tuesdays! (Must remember that I can’t bring everything home!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
