The eye doctor is very pleased with what he is seeing, I have been to visit him 5 times since last Saturday. I am trying not to be discouraged because the damage is right in my line of sight and I still am very blurry. I’ve been home all week and did go to work a little while yesterday so I could get some tax things done. It’s just very wearing to not be able to see properly.

I got my fun swap package this last week. It was a fun surprise.

I don’t know if you can see the little sheep head sticking out one end.

And on the other end, there is his little tail.

Here are all my fun goodies.

It was fun that it came when life was feeling out of kilter!

I also got another fun package in the mail.

I ordered a pattern kit from England. Little Miss Mayah received one of these as a baby gift and I was so enamored with it that I wanted to make one, too.

I’m sorry I didn’t take more time with the picture but I could barely see that day. The kit comes with the yarn, pattern, buttons and label. I can’t wait to make it for some future gift.

Other than this, I haven’t done much. I am knitting the same socks and did a short-row heel and tore it out. I just end up with these big holes on one side. I know I can do this but maybe now is not the time to be trying to do something new on size 0’s.

The weather is rainy and we woke up to iced over cars. It’s kind of a good day to just get to be home. We had a nice visit this morning with Rebecca and Chase and earlier in the morning I did a video chat with Rhianna and Mayah, who has RSV. I am missing that girl. I drove for the first time yesterday and would go visit but I don’t want to bring Tyler into their house. I’m sure he’d be fine but he was hospitalized with RSV when he was a baby and I’ve always been pretty vigilant at keeping him away from sickness.

And that’s it, my friends.
