Today, my oldest daughter has come home to stay with us for a while. She brings along my precious Emily, who is 7. Sarah has just gotten out of a very abusive relationship and needs to start over. Mike and I will help her, but I insist that she help herself too. The big question right now is are Mimi and Pama Mike ready for a not so empty nest......
I must admit that I LOVE my empty nest!!!! I know people have trouble with it being too quiet and sad, I don't get it.... I love that everything stays where I put it and doen't get "borrowed" never to be seen again. I love that I don't have to hide my candy and I love the quiet!!!!!
Time will tell how this works out but I will do anything for my kids and we will survive!
On the knitting front, I'm still working on Christmas presents. sigh Last night I showed my mom her unfinished scarf and she loves it! I just started the second skein of Malabrigo today and I probably have about 2 1/2 to 3 feet more to go. I need to order some Navy worsted for my stepdad's scarf, I'm waiting for the Yarnathon at EatSleepKnit.com to reset the mileage for 2009. I have to block my stepmother's scarf and I've decided to frog and restart my father's. It's just to wide and it will send my OCD into overdrive if I don't fix it.
For laughs, I just joined a Christmas 2009 group on Ravelry. I really need to finish Christmas 2008 but I'm trying to be optimistic about it.
Hopefully, I will be able to load some pics tomorrow from my new camera.
Til then, tata.
