Not hot here

As I look at weather reports across the US and Canada, I “know” that the reporting of temperatures is correct. Having said that, I sit in my craft room with long pants, long sleeves and a too cool breeze coming through the window. At night I am more than pleased to have my comforter and an extra sheepskin for the recent cool nights.

I made a reasonable dent on Part #4 of Vampryum – a scattering here and there on the second side wing and more than a dent in the bloody fanged creature in the middle

and Ms Yellow Mushroom now has legs. Even with all the stitching I have put in on her – I am barely past the 50% mark..

Tomorrow is Monday. I don’t need to go anywhere, but have two more SAL sections dropping in my lap… ummm into my email accounts

About Holly

fiber person - knitter, spinner, weaver who spent 33 years being a military officer to fund the above. And home. And family. Sewing and quilting projects are also in the stash. After living again in Heidelberg after retiring (finally) from the U.S. Army May 2011, we moved to the US ~ Dec 2015. Something about being over 65 and access to health care. It also might have had to do with finding a buyer for our house. Allegedly this will provide me a home base in the same country as our four adult children, all of whom I adore, so that I can drive them totally insane. Considerations of time to knit down the stash…(right, and if you believe that…) and spin and .... There is now actually enough time to do a bit of consulting, editing. Even more amazing - we have only one household again. As long as everyone understands that I still, 40 years into our marriage, don't do kitchens or bathrooms. For that matter, not being a golden retriever, I don't do slippers or newspapers either. I don’t miss either the military or full-time clinical practice. Limiting my public health/travel med/consulting and lecturing to “when I feel like it” has let me happily spend my pension cruising, stash enhancing (oops), arguing with the DH about where we are going to travel next and book buying. Life is good!
