Been busy...

It's been a while since I posted here because life has swept me along with the tide for a while.

It's time to catch up.

Go ahead and get that snack and drink. Let the dog out, I'll wait.

Back already? Ok, here goes...

Stephanie worked really hard to make me a scarf for Christmas. She made Karen run around to get just the right color yarn to match the stripe on my knit cap.


(Hey, I look like Orson Welles' heavier brother...)

Several years ago we were in PA for the holidays and were surprised by a snow storm. Since none of us had hats or gloves, we made a quick trip to Walmart. The only hat I could find was a hunting cap with camo on one side and hunter orange on the other.

While I wear it with the camo on the outside, sometimes an orange stripe shows. Stephanie decided she wanted to make me a scarf that coordinated with the stripe and voila' I have a bright new scarf (emphasis on the bright).

It is a wonderful scarf. The stitching is even, the length and width are great and it keeps my neck very warm. The work she put into it really shows.

Thanks Stephanie!
