WINTER KNITTING, et al

 

Le Sock No. 1  c'est tout fini !!

;D

(DH is in the process of cleaning

 out under the tv in

 the background--

he is a gem!! 💓)

AND

↓↓↓

Here is the start of the

2nd sock...

Someone asked what yarn I

was using

↡↡↡↡

Very soft and cuddly yarn

really easy to knit and 

it doesn't split on you...

I had gotten this quite

a while ago and I 

don't know if it is still

available. 

I have two more balls of the same

yarn but in a different colorway

that I plan to  knit up next...

👵👏

***********************

Knitting has kept my hands 

busy these "resting" days.

For those of you who have

asked:

My MRI results showed

a herniated disc that is

causing my sciatica...

So...

Next up will be an

epidural 

(to be scheduled,

soon I hope).

I hope this will allow me

to get back to walking

without pain.

🙏🙆

*********************

Tom is making beef barley soup

for our dinner tonight;

I will make a tossed 

salad to accompany it...

I am trying to eat lightly as

I have been so sedentary...

I hope this finds you all healthy

and able to sew away...

I am off to ice my back and

do some light stretches...

Hugs, Julierose,

FYI:

those of you knitters out 

there, here is my progress

from this:

TO THIS

↴↴↴↴↴

Not too bad for just a 

few rows here 

and there, huh?

********************************

I lit our little family

N O E L 

ceramics last evening...

This was my Grand-mere's

and passed onto my Mom

and then to me...

It is on our bookcase just

 off the 

kitchen...

I usually have it on our mantle, 

but this year as we moved the

bookcase where our huge desk

used to sit, I thought we'd 

enjoy seeing the bookcase 

 dressed up

for

the Holidays...

⛄⛄⛄

************************

Tonight will be grinder night

for lunch and supper in one!!

We get Genoa salami

with lettuce, tomato and

provolone cheese 

(oil not mayo).

Y U M M Y!!

Reminds me that:

My Tante Beth (pronounced

(Bet in Canadian French)

owned and worked

in a grinder shop 

while I was a little girl;

I would just love to go in and 

"H E L P" (hahaha)

wrap up the grinders

for customers...

We all spoke French--

even a lot of the customers...

French was my first

language....

AND

sometimes I still dream 

en

Francais...

*****************************

I hope you are all well and enjoying 

these days before Christmas or

any Holiday you celebrate...

Hugs,
