Olympics

I’ve been quite busy over the last couple of weeks.  After I came back from the cottage on the 9th, I’ve been glued to the TV trying to see all the Olympic coverage that was possible.  It is somewhat hard to do since NBC and CBC is typically broadcasting till early morning due to the 12 hours time difference from Beijing.  Needles to say, I have been sleep deprived and one coffee in the morning does not do it anymore.  I missed the opening ceremony, but I’m looking forward to watching the closing one this weekend.  I must say that swimming and gymnastics are my two favorite sports to watch; especially swimming since Michael Phelps was amazing.  I’m officially slightly obsessed with him, I’m sure Andrew would says otherwise, (more like fully obsessed) but I can’t help it, he is HOT. 
Other than that, I made some pillow cases for all my nieces and my nephew.  I had a lot of fun making them and I hope they are cuddly to sleep with.  I used the special feature on my machine and sawed in each of their names in the pillow.  I think it came up nice.  Also I got crazy one night and I made another crocheting doll.  I really like how it turned out.  It looks similar to “Sam” but his hair is somewhat different and he’s a bit taller; standing at almost 11”.  Hopefully I’ll have some more time to do more crocheting crafts before I have to pack for Saskatoon.
