“The cookies are GONE already :-)”

LOL! Sounds like a fun week ahead. :)

Thanks for the tip on the Vit D. I’ll see what we have on hand...

Tonight, since I HAVE to stay up until 9pm to roust Dolly out for a potty break so we can BOTH sleep through the night, I am working on my outline of what needs to change in the greenhouse...while watching a Murder Mystery of course, LOL!

Not feeling 100% perky, but you never know what extra vitamins and a good nights sleep can do! I remain hopeful!

This website is really poor, but I saw this place out of the corner of my eye when we were passing through the other day. Cool concept and I am going to buy some Alpaca yarn from them in the near future and make some Christmas gifts (scarves or mittens or hats) for next year.

How did your latest Prayer Shawl turn out?

Vitamin D for Influenza (read last paragraph)
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4463890/

You don’t have the flu, but Vit D was a major player with C19. It’s actually a hormone. Anyway, whenever we get sick with any sort of virus, we hit the Vit. D. I actually take 10,000 iu daily - helps my chronic hives.

Another interesting factoid regarding Vit D:
Deficiency increases risk: Individuals with vitamin D deficiency (serum levels <30 nmol/L) face a 36% higher risk of death compared to those with levels ≥50 nmol/L. Deficiency is an independent risk factor for death from pneumonia and other conditions.

The current prayer shawl is pretty. I just did a small swatch to experiment with a simple border & I like the result so I do think I am putting a border on it. Hopefully, I can send it off in a week or so - mom is anxious for her friend to have it.

No web site is good on a smartphone, compared to a desktop with 21'' screen! Thank God for that.
