This and that

 Random tehoughts about the last month. I need to start making a list of blogging ideas. I t helps me to focus and remember.

On December 1st the.No Cooks came here for supper and coffee. It was so much fun to see them and spend the evening together just like we used to. I miss those Friday night get togethers. I did manage to get a few decorations out and had the house looking festive for the occasion.


There is a lot less decorations this year. Only two trees and a couple of others things. No where near the total house overhaul that I usually do. However I don’t put it all out every year but I think this is the least I have ever done.  Still I was glad to have it out when they were here.

The Banker and I did our yearly Safe and Warm raffle basket. The theme was the little red truck. We raised $505.00 for the shelter. 


We also donated two hampers. This picture is one hamper.


We also sent 48 pairs of men’s socks and 36 pairs of women’s socks. I think we did very well this year. We had sort of decided this year may be our last of doing this but now we think we may give it one more try.

I found some tiny toque ornaments I want to try knitting and some granny square stockings  I want to make. I have ordered up the yarn for the stockings and now I have to find some for the toques. My scrap Afghan depleted my stash of spare yard. It feels so good to be interested in doing things again. I’m not back to normal yet but I’m getting there! 

Toodles, Linda
