new job, and the county

First i’d like to state that the picture of the alpaca has nothing to do with anything, i just found it on my camera while uploading other photos and remembered how darn cute the little guy is. I took it a few weeks ago while at the Common Ground Fair with Genna, i wanted to take him home, along with a few angora bunnies.

I started a new job last monday at a credit union in Lewiston, which is fantastic. I love being employed again, its hard to get use to waking up early, but i’ll figure that part out eventually. I’m currently commuting an hour, but looking for a place in that area so hopefully i find something soon. i have a feeling i wont be able to afford internet right away, so that might be a bit difficult cause i’m kind of an addict.

This weekend i headed up to northern Maine for a friends wedding, and during the 3 hour drive up i had Ian pull off to the scenic view of Mount Katahdin cause he had never seen it before. Sadly it was kind of cloudy so we couldnt see much but i snapped a photo anyway. You can sort of see the lovely fall colors in the photo, but due to the lack of sun and cause its almost past peak they dont look as fantastic in the photo as they usually do, i still love fall in maine though. The wedding itself was lovely with a fall theme and instead of table numbers they were differentiated by Beatles songs, and each table had its own bottle of wine with the Beatles song title on it. I took that home, and im sure it’ll be pretty tasty.

My sweater is on hold for a bit as a work on a project for a friend that i wont delve into much hear in case they happen to stumble across my blog, i do have it linked on my facebook page after all. And soon i’ll have to start Christmas knitting, i should really start looking through my pattern books so i’ll start to have some sort of idea of what i need to purchase, though i am going to try to make most of it out of stash yarn cause its more economical…and i ran out of room in my yarn cupboard, OMG!

And one last thing, i highly recommend the band Owl City, and the singer, Adam Young, sounds just like Ben Gibbard (the singer of on my favorite bands EVER Death Cab for Cutie) so you should go download or buy the CD, or at least the single “fireflies”
