Addendum

Having just quickly read the other posts on GKL's blog, I feel the need to point some things out...

a) I used to be a stitcher; cross stitch, embroidery, etc. I was very anti-knitting. I was adamant that GKL would never get me knitting. Until a few months ago when I gave in. It's a very addictive hobby. I've been struggling to put my knitting projects down and work on the cross stitch Christmas presents I'd started. Last night, in an insomnia-induced burst of stitching at 3 o'clock in the morning, I finished my mother's Christmas present and can now knit as much as I want, guilt free. GKL has taken this (and my small purchase of fluffy yarn at a sale yesterday - apparently buying yarn just because I like it means I have a stash and am an official knitter) to mean that I'm a knitter only. I'm not. I still stitch. Occasionally. It's just not quite as addictive as knitting. My plans for 2009 include dedicating each fortnight to one craft only. I wonder if I'll be able to be faithful.

b) My name. My actual name is Colette, which is a lovely name. But over this past summer I had a bit of an attitude and outlook and appearance adjustment and changed my name to Cleo (not legally). Colette is miserable and mopey and does nothing and wallows in the past. Cleo isn't quite that bad. Cleo is my fresh start. And, to confuse you even further, Cel'eena Cree is my blog name, a frequent RPG character and other useful alias type things. Just so you know.

I think that's it. I'm confused. And cold. Need to put heating on. And cook pizzas.

Oh, and knit....
