Also known as: Ten Things You Have To Do Before (insert holiday here) This Weekend

You know, Carole is thinking about a menu and cooking.  (That’s not even on my radar screen.)

1. cards

I'm all topical this year.

2. make more of this

(This is me giving up on the wisiwig editing – that is: photo captioning is not working today.)
This is cotton yarn, finger knit into an icord for bows
because this pom pom just isn’t working for me
x

Really, is that a sad pompom or what?
3. wrap more of these
x
x
Note the cotton bow.

4. cook these
x
x
Looking for my favorite (healthy) apple bread recipe …

5. find yarn for brother-in-law’s hat
x
x
Oh Looky!  One down!
This is Cascade Pastaza in the “light grey” colorway. (Sorry – the felines have absconded with the tag.)

6. Knit hat for brother-in-law
x
x
Of course, when I found the Pastaza, I found this Malabrigo Chunky (in the Paris Night colorway). And it is Chunky and will knit up faster than the Pastaza. But it might not be quite enough for a hat. Chunky would also be warmer. I am torn.  Stripes?

7. post presents (Let’s call them New Year’s presents, shall we?)
x
8. one more reallyreallyreally late thing that I promised would be done for this weekend but that won’t be done but might make it for New Year’s. Maybe.
x
And I can’t talk about it here.
x
9. hope that Dude isn’t reading here
x
10. redo the bedroom (including: rip out carpet (last one, yay!), paint, hang new drapes, replace stuff, air out the room so we can sleep on it – all before Dude gets home. From work. On a regular day when there are no robots in the afternoon. And there’s probably no work being done. And no one is in the building.)
x
That last one might be a bit of a stretch.
