The weather is turning colder with a projected windchill of - 27* tonight.So with that in mind I went searching for a dog sweater pattern that I had used many years in the past. A LOT of my 'stashes' of patterns and papers were cleaned out and discarded , but still no pattern ! Finally a light went on ... there was one more folder. Yreka ! I found it ! It is so faded I can barely read it, but I am persevering. Hopefully I can finish the sweater this morning, and that it fits !
The turkey was stripped and the bones simmered for soup. I need to take the fat off this and freeze it for soup making later on. Supper was whatever you could find in the fridge. Easy peasy as YGS would say.
YS went out and played pick up hockey at local outside rink and then settled in with his dad to watch the World Junior Hockey Championships. Canada won 8-0 over Slovkia. I watched The Newsroom while keeping an eye on the game, and knitted and knitted.
Today ? There might be a few going to see one of the Hobbit movies. I don't like them, could never get into Lord of the Rings no matter how hard I tried. I'll be babysitting and that suits me fine.
Today I got my next project ready. Once I have finishe the sweater and the scarf, I'll work on my mom's knitted squares. My mom has been dead for 21+ years and these were stashed away for all that time. I will crochet the squares and make a couple of small afghans. That'll be a bit more wool gone. ED can keep one in the caar for Marley and another one in th house for her. My mom knit squares
for afghans for each grandchild which I crocheted and sewd together. I have continued the 'tradition'.
Today I need to dust and polish furniture, finish doing the Christmas decorations and swish the bathrooms. Another relaxing day. No shopping for me !
