Boy does time fly!!!

Cripes, time just blows by. Like so many, I never believed adults (when I wasn't one) that time races as one ages. I cannot believe that I haven't posted since March but, it must be true. I wonder if I just post during the darker times of year - when I tend to be closer to the computer. Or, i just get lazy. Chances are it is the latter of those options.

I am in a master's program now and have and excuse, sort of. Even so, I am on winter break and am supposed to be working on my master's thesis and, instead, I am doing this. I am listening to the Limenviolet podcast and knitting on Bellatrix sock #2 (finally!!!) and felt the urge to document some of this. Go figure!

I actually should be gathering up Yule gifts to mail out tomorrow. I've got to run to the post office or to UPS to get them into the transport system. But, first, I've got to wrap the gifts. Then I have to make the decision about USPS or UPS. Husband (the mail carrier) or brother (the UPS exec) both appreciate the business. Maybe I'll split up the packages when I post them. Tomorrow will tell.

We've got 10 or so inches of snow in the metro Detroit area. It is beautiful and so, so cold!!! We are s'posed to get more snow tonight. I guess that means more knitting time (to stay warm and all!!).

Okay - I am off to help a friend move homes (yes, it is December and icy and still, life goes on!).

Happy Winter Solstice to all!!
