Too Late to Knit, Not Sleepy Yet

So, I'll rehash my lists - again

Here is the 2009 gift list I created in December 2008. Let's check progress.

The only thing left on the gift list from December 2008 that has a chance of getting finished is Madonna's scarf and it is getting plenty of knitting time right now. It should be done soon.

Madonna's scarf - It's cast on and 45% done.
A Hulk Hat for Jack - done
A Calorimetry or Lace Headband for Jack's Sister - done
Liza's neckwarmer - done
A hat, bib and booties for Pedro and Margret's baby - The hat is done. Bibs and Booties - boring
A hat, bib and booties for Baby Rogg - booties done - bib and hat - boring
A hat, bib and booties for Ricky and Crystal's baby - hat done - Bibs and Booties - boring
April 2009 New to the list - Mom's Shonagon pillow - done and gifted and loved.
A lace head band for Brianna Ricky and Crystal's baby's older sister - changing to a floppy hat. She's only 4 - a headband, what was I thinking - I'm over hats. It's going to the bottom of the list Scratch it, I'm not doing it.

Summer List:
My goals for summer include finishing a few projects in between gift knitting.
Finish the Clapotis - DONE
Finish Flutter - I plan to finish Madonna's scarf before summer's end. Well on my way.
Re-Engage with the Shetland Tea Shawl - I'm itching to get back into this project. I even knit a row last week. Just to see if I could. Hmmm, I think I'd rather be Christmas knitting.

Those are my main three summer goals.

Bonus Summer goals:
Cast on my fair isle neckwarmer - did get it cast-on. It's getting no knitting time. The Sundara is beautiful. Exactly what I expected.
Cast on the Spanish Peacock - but I need to get much further on the STS first. I've moved through my lace mood. I'd rather knit for others right now.
Cast on my mittens for winter walking the dogs. I should settle on a pattern first. ???
Figure out Christmas knitting. Make a list and assign projects and yarn. DONE And I've already started on one of the projects. SIL's mitts are more than half done.

So what's next in my knitting goals? Well, I have vacation time coming up. How about having 5 Christmas items on the needles by the end of the week? That doesn't mean I can't cast on a couple now, but by the end of that week, I should have 5 new projects on the needles. I'll have to think that through further and come up with the list of 5 projects in another blog list.
