Thanks Jane! It's a good day to "hole up."

Utah Girl, I saw the "eyelash yarn " you mentioned. The yarn I'm using is similar but prettier and more interesting I think. The eyelash yarn didn't strike my fancy...can't explain why.

Anyway, I finished the one scarf I've been working on for son #2 for 2 years now!!!!!

So it's time to concentrate on the new creation using the Fun fur, in rainbow colors...

I forgot a couple of items when I came to my mom's house, so I persuaded her to take me to the local yarn shop. I asked about the fun fur. They have some gorgeous colors. It is on my list to buy sometime to make a scarf. I keep telling myself 'no new projects.'

And my mom called some friends of mine. One just left after a very nice visit. She brought me the book 'Charlotte Grey.' I saw the tail end of the movie the other night, but I haven't read the book.

The dr says my leg is slowly getting better. So, I have an appointment on Tuesday morning, and I'm supposed do what I've been doing for the past few days. And my mom is telling me computer time is over. LOL.

She promised me tonight that we would turn the lights off and watch for sugar plum fairies in the Christmas tree lights. My favorite babysitter when I was growing up would turn out the lights, put on "The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies" and tell us to watch for the fairies in the lights. It is one of my favorite Christmas memories.

One more thing. I know there has been a lot of consternation about the lack of 'Merry Christmas' greetings in a lot of cities in America. As we were driving home this morning, KOSY 106.5 plays Christmas music 24/7. And as an interlude between songs, they did the narrative from 'A Charlie Brown Christmas', where Charlie Brown asks 'what is the true meaning of Christmas?' And Linus answers, quoting from Luke 2. It was excellent to have the religious part of Christmas emphasized as well as being wished a very Merry Christmas.
