Doilies and Christmas
Nov. 30th, 2008 04:01 pmI really really liked working this pattern, and I'm happy with the way it came out, too. I think I'll make some more.
Somewhat belatedly, I changed over the holiday wreaths and hand towels from autumn to winter/Christmas and deployed some Christmas kitsch, including a lurid 14" tall plaster Santa Gnome.
We've discovered a hole in the basement foundation through which muddy water is pouring. We plugged it with a combination of kitty litter and Quikrete, which seems to have done the trick for the moment. Serious work on the problem will be called for once the weather dries out a bit.
EDITED TO ADD: Yesterday I biked the drives, with a few photo stops, and also went to the PathMark. Total about 14 miles. It felt less difficult. Today my knees are stiff, not sore but with a funny feeling as though something around them had lost its flexibility. However, it's also raining heavily whereas it was clear yesterday.
