General Happiness

You may have noticed that I am slowly (meaning at a snails pace) updating my blog. I'm not posting a whole lot, but I keep adding links and such- things that I find useful. My blog is not so much for public consumption, but more as portal for me to surf the Internet.

I recently signed up for a book sharing service called Bookmooch. It's great- because I list all my unwanted books for others to request, and as a result, I get to mooch books from others. The way it works is that for every book I post under inventory, I get a 1/10th of a point. For every book I send out (with postage usually at $1.59 or less), I get 1 whole point. So far, I've sent out 8 books- and received 8 books. The only catch is that you have to list books people are willing to mooch from you, which isn't actually all that hard if the books you are posting are not that obscure. I really recommend signing up for this if you have a lot of books to get rid of, or if you don't enjoy spending a lot of money on new books.

On the knitting front- I finished the Dad's Christmas Socks, my Christmas Socks, and I started my very first sweater, with yarn ordered for the next sweater. I do have intentions of posting pictures, but well, that requires me taking the pictures first- then getting them off the camera, and then resizing them to proper web page size. So it might take awhile.
