Twas the Week Before Christmas

Four days until Christmas

And I’m in a tizzy-

All this last minute knitting

Is making me dizzy!

Everyone in my house

Is having a fit-

There’s nothing to eat

'Cause I’ve too much to knit.

For the baby shower yesterday

A bumblebee set,

Today I’ll work on the

S&B vest.

Then there’s the scarf

To match the new jacket,

And the sweater for Mom

(I’m up to the placket).

I have to finish

The poncho for Sis,

Then on to her sweater-

It’s next on the list.

The Bob the Builder sweater

May have to wait-

Logan won’t notice

If his present’s late.

I already missed

His birthday deadline.

Who’s going to notice

If it’s not on time?

But the socks for my hubby

Were supposed to be

A gift for our 20^th

Anniversary.

I’d like to squeeze in

More hat sets and mitts,

And a couple more purses

Before the Yule log is lit.

I really would like

To just go to bed-

Let visions of Koigu

Dance in my head...

But- ACK! I forgot about

Last Christmas’s sweater!

Next year I promise

That I’ll do better.

So off the computer,

I need to find wool

And needles and notions-

My knitting bag’s full!

I’d just like to say

Before I’m shipped to "the Farm" (do they have sheep there?)

Merry Christmas to all,

And to all a good yarn.
