So. Good news all around. I finished my mom’s scarf on Saturday. (Don’t click this Mom!) I’m pretty proud of it. It’s a bit longer and wider than the mini pattern called for but that’s a good thing! And it’s soft. Soooo soft. But I haven’t blocked it yet. Not sure I will. Nor have I sewn the ends in. But I’m sure I’ll do that.

I also spun the last bit of holiday themed yarn, which is coincidently the last of Madison’s Romney wool that I dyed on Thanksgiving.

It’s called Hard Candy Christmas. Yeah I like Dolly Parton songs, particularly ones from that movie about a whorehouse. Hope that doesn’t blight your opinion of me.

It’s 216 yards, a light worsted weight and I’m selling it for 20 dollars even.
I’ll put it up in the shop tomorrow but, of course, I’m giving the blog friends a sneak preview. So let me know if you want to snag it before I put it up.

I managed to get to the lab this morning so they could do my hormone bloodtests after fasting all night. They’re still trying to get the thyroid hormones balanced. And checking some other hormonal stuff. The new doc thinks unbalanced hormones may be causing the anxiety attacks. Which are better thanks to new meds. But still. They’re scary as all shit when they come on me like they have. So it was nice to get that done this morning.

AND I scanned the Santa photos! Yay! These are the best two of the four they took.

Sorry about the larger sizes but they’re too cute to be shrunk.

So now all I have to do is work on dad’s cabled scarf, wrap some presents, and do some laundry for my trip to B’ham. We’re going to forego the big tree this year and just do a little tabletop one on the dining table. And apparently last year I stored the holiday movies somewhere really weird because I can’t find them. I’m sure at the time I was thinking how great a storage spot it was. Now I have no clue where they are.
