November 20: I went to Wool Gatherer's Stash Bash and sold and gave away the SW yarn & fiber, plus some red & green crochet thread (the ones I wound up with from one of the Palouse Patchers give-aways, they could not get rid of - but I know crocheters, LOL).
msH came with me and met some old friends; they all had a good time and so did all of the adults. The food was excellent as always. I managed to only come away with some vintage circular knitting needles, steel crochet hooks and one spinning magazine (it had ideas for color work sweaters made from one's own spinning, but I really liked the ideas and figured it would work with commercial or hand spun).
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. We will have the west coast part of our family here. We have to call the east coast part. We'll have the traditional turkey dinner, but I don't have to make it all. I'm just contributing the turkey, stuffing, gravy and some hot rolls.
I am nearly finished with the craft room, but there still will not be enough room for it all. AND I have down-sized a lot. I'll have to put my batting and the wool fabric into the office with the spinning fiber. But I'm progressing in the removal of things from our home. I feel proud of myself.
Our Thanksgiving was so nice. The kids did most of the work so I could rest my leg. The turkey turned out great, the ham was so flavorful and all of the trimmings were so good. Everyone had a full tummy.
November 25: I, of course, have been doing a lot of resting. I had an MRI on Saturday and should know tomorrow what results there are. I'm getting pretty tired of this nonsense and hope it will be over soon.
I can't get much done craft wise, but have been working on some knitted blankets while I've been sitting. I have one made with left over sock yarn and one made with leftover worsted. I need to get started on the other socks for msH, too, as well as all my other work.
