BETTER !

These last two weeks have been very, very busy ...
but the best part is :
our dearest loved-one is on the way to recovery,
getting better by the day
a true miracle

We were very happy that we could celibrate
"Sinterklaas" as we would normally have done :
presents for the children
and a present with a funny poem
for the grown-ups 
(just like it should be)
(there's a great explanation about Sinterklaas here

All this, left no time (or desire) for blogging
just reading a bit ... 
and no big stitching, felting or knitting projects either.

Though the funny knitting book I got as a present
on the 5th of December gave enough little things to try !

An acorn, a fly fungus and .... yèk :  a slug ... (on granddaughter's request)
I don't like one as big as this in my garden
(wouldn't pick it up either !!!)

But the book is really fun
*
There's still a pair of socks with the same yarn as the Baktus skarf,
but also little progress on those :

still the first one ...

(we plan to visit the last Stitch'n Bitch for this year
on Saturday : knitting time then !)
*

Hopefully things will be getting back to normal soon,
but it left us all very much aware how precious life is, so
celibrate every day !

And for those of you who will be in the right place :
enjoy the lunar eclipse on Saturday
