Well onward towards the holidays. My son came home yesterday and will be home for three weeks. We thought he would not be here this Christmas but we have been blessed that he is still in our own country. Please say a prayer for another of our fallen young soldiers, Steve Martin .Thank you and may you rest in peace......... The girls will be coming in later this week and Jane will be bringing my mom with her. So I have a busy week ahead finishing up details and getting the grocery lists ready. I am dreading the wrapping, I really wish I would wrap it when I get them........when will I ever learn?
I ran yesterday morning, it was a mere -17C' and I think it dropped the last km to -20 C cause Baby! It was cold outside! We resembled Mrs. Claus when we returned, but we are a hardy bunch and it was actually quite enjoyable. At least your muscles don't get inflammed! Call us crazy but if you wait for warmer days they may not come. So I will try to post more regularly this week before the crazy takes over. Have a wonderful day!

Hi Gail!!! What a beautiful Christmas tree :)
ReplyDeleteI gather your son is in the armed forces ~ our country owes so much for all the sacrifices of these young men and their families.
I am amazed you found those slippers of mine on the blog ~ I had a hard time finding them myself - LOL I will often purchase a used pattern book on Amazon and they do carry a used copy of this book found here http://www.amazon.com/Knit-Together-Patterns-Stories-Knitting/dp/1584795344. I am actually wearing these slippers a lot right now because we are having some cold and wet weather and I really enjoy these slippers. Another option for a felted slipper is the French Press slipper and that's a popular pattern on etsy. Good luck ~ and enjoy the visit with your son :)))
