I found this last month and the start of this month to be hard. I am missing my Mom. She would do Thanksgiving and Christmas. 25 people at Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner were not unusual. And the number of nativity scenes! Oh my gosh!
I was at my Dad's for Thanksgiving and so was my brother. 5 at the table was not normal. We were all a little bit sad. I am finding that I am wanting more quiet and less words.
I have taken to working in my garden more. I am trying to walk everyday, even if they are short walks. I have been skateboarding at my Dad's. I am trying to learn how to dance on a skateboard. Being outside helps. Creating helps but is hard too. I have so many works in progress it is not funny!
At the beginning of the stay at home orders, I started a shawl. I have been calling it a quarantine shawl. I finished it at my Dad's during Thanksgiving week. I sent it off to my best friend, which is why it is not fully pictured here. I want her to be surprised! It is a lovely weight and is cozy. Cozy is huge. She lives and moves around in states that actually have winter.
Now I need to work on another project now. I have multiple shawls, sweaters, and one vest in the works. Which one is the question. Which one too that will travel well as well. I am off to my Dad's again soon. More doctors.
