Back at last!

We are both finally over that awful virus. Jack still has a bit of a cough now and again. Going to church tomorrow for the first time in a couple weeks. Today Jack felt well enough and the weather was nice enough he walked downstairs to check the mail. He came back with bloody, scratched and cut hands, bruised ribs on one side and even his nose was skinned. Yep, he fell. *sigh* I think I shall wrap him in bubble wrap.
 That sweet husband of mine really surprised me good this year with presents. Nope, we do not wait until Christmas day to open presents. First a Kindle showed up for me.

Then a few days later this showed up. It is a four inch pin loom.

I have been playing with it as you can see.

We have done without a lot and struggled quite a bit since losing our home in 2011 and Jack felt I deserved special treats this year. So sweet of him. He has been rewarded with jammies and a couple models he wanted for some time.
The trees are still lovely in some places although most have lost there leaves.

Our dear little 84 year old neighbor downstairs brought this lovely poinsettia to us a couple days ago. So sweet is little Miss Trudy!

I have been crocheting also. I have now finished this hat.

Working now on angels. Sorry no picture and squares for an afghan for a friend.

Our squirrels visit daily sometimes several times a day.

Sylvia is still Sylvia!

Enjoying her Christmas giftie today!

Here is Jack when he felt so bad.

So now you are all caught up with us. Thanks for visiting. I need to catch up on my blog reading! Huggles and blessings.
