This has been a rather difficult week in our home and family. I’m very scattered, so that’s what you get.
1. DH’s Aunt Claire passed away this week. While the family had been expecting this. It is never easy. Our hearts go out to Marcie, my MIL, and all of Claire’s children. Rest in Peace Claire. You were loved and will be fondly remembered.
2. Yesterday I fell. This is always my fear. It doesn’t happen often. Mostly because I’m so aware of my moves. But it leads to a few nasty days afterward. I’m currently covered in some very nasty bruises and in more pain than usual.
3. Mickey spent Tuesday at The spa at the vet. He had a cut on his cheek that got slightly infected. My fabulous vet and staff had to give him a little nap so that they could clean out the gunk. He’s being a real toddler* about taking his medicine. *If you’ve ever had a 2-year-old with a fever you know what I’m talking about.
4. With all the above I’m at least getting a lot of knitting done. I’ve been on a push to get GM done. I’m now working on the bind off. There’s a lot of stitches there. I’m figuring around 1484. I really want this done to add to Stash Dash.
5. I’m playing with a pair of socks. They’ve been OTN for a long time and really getting on my nerves. I’ve ripped back 5 times, re-knit to make them longer, tried them on and I swear they are shorter than they were to start. I’ve now decided that I will finish these socks and if they don’t fit me then they will go in the gift box.
6. I am already starting to think Christmas. I’m making plans. Lots of plans. I special ordered some yarn from one of my favorite indie dyers. Lisa will be creating something for me to start on the gift list. I know exactly what I’m making. More on that later. Maybe. I have to make sure that none of the family is reading the blog.
7. I also have a request to another indie dyer that has no deadline on it. I’m not in a rush and Melissa knows that so when it comes I’ll show off the goodies.
That’s enough for now. Back to the knitting.
I'm a wife, mother and grandmother living with cronic medical issues. I love to knit, crochet, craft & create.
Hey Tami –
I am sorry you’ve had a hard week. I will be thinking of you! <3
The shop is back open and custom order spots are up. Please place your order there or message me on ETSY. I can't recall what you were looking for, which is why I need you to message me through ETSY so I can keep organized.
Thanks lady!
