Winter Holidays

My Hanukkah is in the mail (per Jackie's frustration).  Mine for Jackie is wrapped and next to a small tree. 

I had a good Hanukkah - no drama, depression at levels lower than previous years. Lit candles on all the nights, had fried potatoes and the cats dined by electric candlelight with my electric menorah in the window. LOL

I decided to do a little for Yule/Christmas and put up a fake white tree Jackie had and put her gifts next to it and my new nutcracker, a favorite nutcracker (the Rat King), the Christmas Yeti guy, and Snoopy and Woodstock (both play the Charlie Brown music) and, of course, a turtle.

Now if this stupid sinus infection would ease up, it wouldn't be a bad day.

Continuing Mom's Quilt

I finished the lower straight line in this row on the quilt, the one Mom had done a little on.  My stitches are getting better too.  Maybe we can finish this.
