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.  :doh:  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!
