That was a nice nap
I was so tired and am not feeling well. There has been so little knitting last week - between the cookies baking (yays for a successful batch of caramel), the food-prep (for in-laws visits), a not-well fuzzy, and all the general life + house duties.
Fuzzy has vet appt first thing tmw and I just woke up from a nap. I feel semi-human.
The in-laws left this morning after visiting this weekend. We always enjoy their visits. We had lots of food: snacks of pülla and goat cheese stuffed pepperdews (thanks J for the cheese), dinner of turkey breast with leek stuffing, stuffed mushrooms, simple ceasar salad, garlic mash, and eggnog cheesecake on Friday night, Pecan caramel rolls on Saturday morning, waffles and scramble eggs Sunday morning, and dinner out at JaKs Sunday night. I sent care package of a full cookie tin, two loafs of pülla, a cheesecake with them to BiLs & family.
I sneaked in a few hours of alone time on Saturday and visited J's sqishy cat, picked up some grocery items for Christmas dinner, and had Peking duck chat with W.
This morning I tried to clean up a little but did not get far. Either the lack of sleep or the cold meds really zapped me. I really want to finish G's sweater but couldn't muster enough energy to pick up the simple stockinette. Perhaps a nap first. Whoops I checked phone and missed a call from Mom. "... something something dad picked out a new yarn ..." . I better call her back. She said she had an ant problem in the house in the last week.. then she swatched the tiny 4 ply black yarn on US3 needle... "I feel like I was counting rows of ants..." "grumble grumble". They went back to the yarn store and she asked Dad to pick out a new yarn. I was cracking up (and cough cough!)
Anyhoo ... making mental list of prep for Christmas dinner... and may tried to summon enough energy to be productive. Oye. I might not make it. Happy Monday.
