Sometimes Monday ...

... is a day for gratitude. In celebration of Michelle's Gratitude Week, here are five things I'm grateful for today.

I got my mail, complete with the yarn I was waiting for! There was some more confusion, and I had to go pick it up myself, but my yarn is here!


I'm grateful that I had such a nice day on Sunday to pick up leaves, that I have the ability to wield a rake and the leaf sucker, and that they make such a nice, tidy pile in the street. There will be many, many more to deal with, but for now they're still fun.


Buds on all of my Christmas cactuses make me happy and grateful. There should be lots of flowers around here in the next couple of months!


The joy of having a comforting sequel to one of your favorite books is undeniable, even if it wasn't written by the same author. 


Lastly, I'm grateful that I'm only nine rows away from a/n FO. There is the finishing, weaving in of ends, and blocking, but hopefully soon!

What brings gratitude into your world?

  3. Beautiful Bonny! And, I am glad your yarn arrived safely!

    My gratitude list this morning included Sherman snuggles, hot coffee, the warmth of a wool sweater, a mild breeze (and NO rain for my morning walk!) and the smooth flow of ink to my page!

  4. Very nice. Of course, I want to see the yarn - lol (I think the return label was Simply Sock? I order a ton from them!!). I'm grateful no tornado touched down by us Friday night.

  6. I am grateful that I have a/n FO as well! I finished Kimono this morning...blocking to occur this evening. If I can see! (Damn winter!) :-) And I must read (or re-read...not sure) Anne of Green Gables!

  7. I am very grateful for this blog post (cheerful!), that the election will be over tomorrow, and that the weather held long enough for me to take my dogs for a lovely walk this morning. Where's that yarn?
