B is for...

I know I promised pics of WIPs but today you get 2 pics for letter B and a meme that Laura tagged anyone who hasn't done it.

B is for bunny:


This bunny was given to me by my grandfather when I was very little. I was his favorite grandchild, and this bunny is one of my prized possessions.

B is also for Bored:


I was bored this past weekend and instead of knitting on WIPs, or starting something new, I bought a puzzle. I started it Friday afternoon, and it was done on Sunday night. The picture on the box is mixed up so you have to work fairly hard to figure out where the pieces go, and there are 1026 pieces.

And here is the meme:

records clerk) (ages 17-23)
* Executive Assistant (fancy title for paper pusher/secretary) (age 22-present)

* Beauty and the Beast/Aladdin/Little Mermaid (It's hard to choose)

Completing that puzzle is a big achievement! I'm horrifically slow at puzzles.

That's so awesome you still have the bunny! I don't have any of my childhood toys. Cool Simpsons puzzle! My daughter got one for Christmas that has the subjects created by many tiny Simpsons screen shots, about four on each piece I think. It's so fun looking at the pieces closely and remembering the episodes.

Paper pushers unite! I'm one too :)

I love the bunny!!! (I love that senitmental childhood stuff!)

And kudos on the puzzle. I can't stand puzzles. I just don't have the patience!!!

Finally--I second what Sarah said-Paper Pushers need to stick together!!

Just wanted to post under this entry in case you hadn't noticed my post under the last one - if that makes any kind of sense!
I'm knitting your mittens!! One is done and I'm halfway through the other. Hope you like them and they keep you COSY! You'll get them in Feb. with a few little chocolatey surprises too, 'cos I'm just THAT kind!
take care
