Just a few things that have been going on.
DH and I invited my mom to come for Thanksgiving dinner (October 13) and stay as long as she'd like but the day we were going to pick her up, she fell and fractured her hip. We've been down to Nanaimo several times to see her and she is doing very well. When she is released from the hospital I will go to stay with her while she recovers.

I have been knitting up a storm but have absolutely nothing to show for all my work. On my needles are just a few things:
1)a ballet cardigan for my 5 year old granddaughter who recently began taking ballet lessons
2)a pair of matching legwarmers for the same granddaughter
3)a black shawl with gold beads I plan to donate to the Sweetheart Dance and Auction in February
4)one pair of turquoise socks
5)a baby blanket in mint, blue and white for my craft market table in May
6)a tan, wool vest for myself
7)two gaudy purple/pink/blue scarves for my granddaughters for Christmas
8)a pair of fingerless gloves for the Blue Fish Gallery
I don't think I've ever had some many things on the go all at once and expect I will finish everything within a few days of each other.
