Winter is Here, for now

It's so cold today, I do NOT want to leave my bed. Thankfully Jamey left his laptop by the bed. Ha! I may never leave the warmth of the covers at all.

Yesterday it was 80 degrees and Lorelei was wearing a sundress. Later that night--it was snowing. This folks IS Texas.

While we listened to the wind howling and the sleet splattering the windows, we ALSO found a new musical obsession. (Me obsession?? Never.) Winter Song from Hotel Cafe Presents Winter Songs. Love LOVE. Here's a video AND how to buy the album. Go get it. My favourite line: "I am the harvester of light."

Yesterday, we kidnapped some out of town friends for lunch and a yarny adventure. I was good and didn't buy any yarn. (I did buy needles though) And when we got home, my birthday present from my parents arrived: Yarn and books from Knit Picks!! Mic was disgusted, "Why are YOU getting packages every day! Not fair." Grin. Birthday's rock. I took loads of pictures. I also got my Secret Santa gift (early because she can't make the party Saturday)--more unfairness for poor Mic. After, I crawl out of bed and wrestle MY computer from the kids I'll upload some pictures.

One of the things I love is found forgotten items. I stumbled upon a book I bought months ago in my Business Tote (it's a massive rolling bag that I keep my Birdy's Baubles and Birdy's Knits samples in), The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. It's a vampire historical fiction mystery. Grin and it's absorbing. My birthday present from my Father also arrived yesterday--can't read it yet because of prior found book absorption.

It's been a very nice knitterly birthday.
