I am sitting here listening to the wind whip around the house.  The little one came home from work and said that it was rain mixed with real big flakes of snow. Oh joy!!  I am so not ready for winter.

Thursday I will have to head a bit north to take my father to his bi-annual eye appointment and unknown to him also to his doctor as he fell last week and can’t really walk.  He has refused to let us take him there so far and after having his nursing home and his doctor call me, I am taking the stubborn old goat to the doctor.  Thursday will probably end up giving me a migraine which I don’t need right now as I am up over my head in projects that must be completed by Sunday. And I am not even talking about the ones that need doing inside the house.

Of course, with nothing on the agenda for tomorrow except things that need to be done inside; hopefully I will accomplish a great deal.  What should be on the agenda is going Christmas shopping to get the last little bit of stuff that I need for the girls and the in-laws.  (and by in-laws I am only speaking of the mother/father ones).  That was supposed to be my agenda today, but of course sweet hubby had another not feeling real well day.  I guess I am going to have to get used to going out alone – oh how I thought those days were over.

I am working on getting up the nerve to use my knifty knitter looms.  I will have to invest in some more yarn before I start as apparently they take more than I thought to make a hat.  Then I will have to give Pammie a call so she can refresh me on how to do it.  With any luck I could spend a few hours with her learning how.

Sweet hubby has asked if I could knit him a scarf – now I haven’t knitted a scarf since I did one for SEB way back in the early 80’s.  I do remember the basic knit stitch, but I can bet that I have forgotten how to pearl.  Something about doing the yarn backwards or something…..  And of course the ones that I know that know how to knit are all lefties or they are righties that learned from lefties so they do it different than I would anyway.  I told sweet hubby that we will have to go to Michael’s and pick out some yarn – it would be easier and faster if the little one would just crochet him one like she did for me.

Right now I am also waiting on news from my friend about her daughter who is in Las Vegas giving birth (or having a C-section) and then my friend will officially become a grandma. lol I can hardly wait.
