Deep Breaths
Yup–lots has happened since we were last together, two weeks ago. Much of it is recapped over at my personal blog, so if you’re interested, head over there. This blog is for fun and games and other happy stuff.
What makes me happy? This, without question

Yup–that’s a photo of Sabrina (ThreadBear store manager), which must mean she’s back from the nearly-dead nether regions of the H1N1 flu. Poor thing–she had the worst case of it that knocked her down for over a week. Still not 100%, she comes in and works short days while she regains her strength (I say she should be recuperating at home, but she will NOT have it!). I’m just glad she’s back among us–we TOTALLY missed her!
Otherwise, things have been good. My move went well (chronicled elsewhere) and I’m getting settle in to my new home and my new life. I’m really enjoying the new digs as well as the process of transforming it into my personal sanctuary. It will be awesome to have a restful, home-y abode to return to after busy days at the shop. Plus I’ve set up one (with at least one more planned) knitting corner for myself. Not that I’ve had that much knitting time–I’m ***STILL*** working on Multnomah (the shoulder scarf/mini shawl depicted here previously) and that’s about it. No intervening projects. No further progress on my “grandmother pullover” (for myself). No progress (not even started) on the multi-fiber shawl in Habu yarns. NO KNITTING TIME! (sniff sniff…..but soon!).
But I do have more boxes unpacked! That’s important because my parents are coming in under a week for the Thanksgiving holiday (or at least at last report, which was last night). I look forward to seeing them, as it’s been a couple years and I want them to see my new place. That’s why the five boxes I managed to unpack today are important….with more to come!

Congrats on the new digs, Rob.
It’s easier to start over in a new location, and having your family there will really cement it as “home”.
Happy Thanksgiving – we all get to see another one – and THAT is good!
