Comfort and Joy


The holiday has been fantastic, except for the dreaded virus that is hanging on and on and on. S. (who was also supposed to be off all this time) ended up having to work (long story) and fly to Tennessee, where he seems to have picked up a variation of the virus that I have been battling--so we are great fun here sniffling, coughing, and snoozing! S. is not working this week, but he is too sick to do anything worthwhile.

The gifts were wonderful, dinner good, and enjoyed the visits. Child 1 got me a new sock knitting book, and some yarn--appreciated by both Mr. Cat and myself. Dove right in Xmas day to start the "working socks" on two circular no. 1 needles. Will keep you up to date on our progress. Also got a new hair dryer (based on Child 3's last use of mine) and I must admit that it does dry things PDQ! S. came through with some bling--nice. S. got an I-pod from the kids. Haven't seen him since--he has been trying to figure it out! So far, he seems pleased with his progress.

Stay tuned. Plan fun knitting socks!
