I do hope you all had a very nice, good, pleasant, wonderful Christmas!
As for me it turned out very good - I had visits with my kids & new grandchild, though way too short in duration. There was an issue with one of their cars, and the winter weather arrived so when I was looking forward to sitting with everyone, they were on the way out the door & going home.
I didn't get to hand out my knitting. Oh darn!!!
The food was plentiful & tasty. I think everyone was satisfied in that department.
Having everyone together was wonderful. So until next year....
But really, if I had the opportunity to skip Christmas I just might take it. My stress levels sky rocket, but enough of that.
Here is some of the fibre things that have been done. There are things that don't make it to the blog, like the rugs I weave, socks & hats knitted and all the mittens that I felt.
I've had the opportunity with a few days off to also visit with some dear friends. And now since this is probably my last post of 2011, I want to say thanks for visiting and I hope everyone's coming New Year is better than the last & you have wonderful things coming your way.
And take some time for yourself to enjoy whatever it is that you enjoy doing with spare time you may find. All the best to you.
