YUM!

Thanks so much for all the kind get well wishes!  Everything went great and now that the packing is out I am feeling a little human again.  Let me just say…I would NEVER do this again (now I am wishing it all hadn’t gone so quickly so maybe I could have thought over some appearance changes to my nose).  I just keep telling myself it will all be worth it when I can actually breathe.  Apparently after they got in there, they could really see where years of allergies had done a number on my turbinates.  Plus they were able to fix my deviated septum and the new dent Loki had created.

I have gotten some great mail the last couple of weeks.  Maybe the universe felt that I could use a little cheering up after the surgery.  Laura sent me some of her beautiful hand dyed yarn.  For no good reason at all except she is a lovely person (I’m sure she’ll add some smart ass comment about that  :angel:) Stunning, isn’t it?  It has some great yardage so I’m debating whether it will become socks or something else like a shawl or wrap.  I also go my first shipment from the Hill Country yarn sock club, which I had totally forgotten I had signed up for…and I mean totally forgotten in the sense that I actually had to email discountyarnsale.com to find out what fantastically sweet, thoughtful person had sent it only to find out that sweet thoughtful person was forgetful, dorky, stupid me.    Lilac isn’t a color I would have chosen but that is the risk with a sock club, no?  I’m sure I’ll still put it to good use.

I’ve been hankering for a new spring purse and was inspired by the new Noni Patterns I received for the store.  I just cast on for one of my own design last night with some stash yarn.  More on that to come!
