Of patterns and such

Recently I've been trying to clean up and organize all my patterns and future project wants. It's hard especially since Ravelry makes it so easy to just queue patterns. I had almost 500 patterns queued! WTF! Who am I? Any way, I've decided that around 200 would be sufficient. I went through them all and the ones in my library and deleted those that were less appealing or seemed like I would probably never get to them. Its an ongoing process though and I have to stay vigilant or else my "hoarder" side emerges and tries to sneak some in the queue.
With that said I have just purchased more yarn. I know, I know I was not supposed to but I received a $250 gift card and after buying shoes, which I did need and a coat for Elayna, I reasoned that I deserved it. I purchased some Rowan Kid Silk Haze for the Bellatrix sweater. I choose blue hues. I'm very excited but nervous because I tend to be impatient with lace weight yarn.
I'm still organizing my projects and have yet to decide what to knit next. The only project on my needles is a throw I had started years ago. I have thought that its time to knit for my self so I may knit Mmm-soft-sweater in blue. Currently processing fleece has been the top priority and I am almost done carding my Romney fleece for the rug I plan to make for the cold floor of the craft room. Now only if I could get those shoe gnomes to spin some fleece while I sleep!!
