Episode 74 - I'm a Teenybopper

Saturday, September 29, 2012

I share my exercise for the week, along with a program I am using for 1/2 Marathon training, WalkJogRun. I also talk about two wii games (Golds Gym Cardio Workout and Just Dance) as well as Zac Efron. I have one finished object to show you, as well as progress on 5 other projects. I also provide an update for the upcoming knit-alongs.

I share progress on several knitting projects, including Henslowe, Effervesces Socks, and the Fall Mystery KAL.
