SICK OF BEING SICK

This is what it looks like at my marina the last few days...



I woke up yesterday morning feeling crappy with this cold that's been lingering -- again -- and didn't improve much throughout the day.

Got Julie onto the train for up-Island, and Doneen flew back to Calgary last night. My camera took yet another lousy pic of the two of them (no, it's not the photographer, I swear....):

... but they ARE both wearing lovely knitted things from the needles of 'Auntie M,' as Doneen calls me.

After I took Julie to the train, I drove down to Clover Point just in time to see the sunrise over the Juan de Fuca, so that was lovely:



Worked at the store yesterday, but my heart wasn't in it much because I felt so crappy -- I'm really sick of this cold that won't go away.

So today I'm hanging out at home, finishing the purple variegated socks and hopefully starting another pair of Noros -- it's eight days until Christmas, and I have two more pairs of socks to knit, still. Hmmmmmm......

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Your knitted gifts looked lovely, and the recipients certainly seemed happy.

Julie and her daughter look so happy in the photo. Must have been a great birthday. Hope you feel better soon.

Stay warm, drink lots of tea, and enjoy this gorgeous sunshine! Hope you are feeling better already.

Sorry to hear you're not well yet..I'm a few days behind you with the same cold/cough! Had to cancel a few store demos..just can't stop coughing.
Check my blog EstherWoodWork to see the winter scene from Scott's 10th floor on Dallas facing the breakwater...soooo beautiful.
I'm working Friday so no knitting for me.

My husband has always had the fantasy to live aboard, but in someplace WARM. Good thing you can knit so well. You'll need all those woolies.
