Feeling better and what im working on

Hello to all! Thanks for stopping by and reading! I am feeling better for the most part! i dont have as much pressure in my head, and that is wonderful. Now i can crochet and knit!!! and do stuff that i dont wanna do.. like house work and stuff.. but it needs to be done and now, i can!! yay! I am still having slight pain and popping sounds in my ear, so i most likely will still be going to my ENT (specialist- ear,nose,throat doctor) at the beginning of Dec. Ok, enough about me.. lets talk about what i am working on and doing lately...

I am doing a Holiday Card Project 2012 on deviantart.com Holiday Card Project 2012
so far, i have two done. I am using the site Dragoart.com for tutorials. They are so fast, easy and cute! and my son is helping by coloring and using the hole punch to cut out shapes for the insides of the cards. I am also thinking of crocheting a little flat ornament to go in them as an extra surprise! :)

Ok, as for knitting and crocheting, I am knitting my son a sweater. My first sweater that wasnt a newborn size.. here is the pattern: Skull sweater It is going to be black with a red skull. To match his latest hat i made him. Hopefully i can get done with it pretty fast.. i hope. :) here is my ravelry page with notes, i dont have pics up yet. Skull and bones ravelry page . As for crocheting, i am still working on the other pokeball deck bags that i am making for my 2 nephews and my niece. i have one done, and another one started.

Also, another picture for ya'll... we went walking behind the house yesterday, and i love the fall!! the red,yellow and orange leaves are awesome! so, my hubby took some pictures for me. here is one of my faves of the group:
Ok, i guess thats it for now! I need to go get some stuff done while i am feeling quite good. I hope to be working on a few animals for my online shop, no i havent forgot about it.. just havent sold anything from it.. so, i thought i would add more stuff to it. and what doesnt sell, i will be donating it to a local charity before the New Year.

Have any questions, suggestions, comments? Feel free to leave a message! Commissions are open and i can get them done before Christmas on most items.
