I don`t think we have any booze in the house. Oh, no wait, there`s the peppermint schnapps from the lunar eclipse night! So we will toast the new year with peppermint schnapps.
So the dishes are mostly washed, the lines are in the laundry machine. The dog has played in the snow. I boiled the water and refreshed the birdbath and swept the front steps.
The SO is asleep, poor thing. I rekindled the fire and made a spot for him to sleep on the sofa, but he fell asleep in the time it took me to do that.
So I have some canned goods to put away. And then! There will be knitting!
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Go to Target or stay home and do nothing. I'd take a nap but there is a kid in my spot on the bed and the couch isn't long enough.

I'm sorry your grandmother's not doing well, shrift, and for your roommate losing her cat.
But yay on Liese's SO making it home!

I swam a whole 2 miles crawl without stopping! (I normally do 2 miles Fri-Sun, but that's 66 laps straight, then my 6 cool down ones, whereas today I did 72 then the 6.)
And I acquired a needed pedicure and bought a small bottle of sparkling wine and am about to go pick up thai food. Which will be my first food all day. Oops?
I don't feel like trying to do anything with my friend. I feel bad, but sick. And given I haven't heard a peep from her, I'm guessing her gastrointestinal ick acquired from her neicelets is still giving her issues.
OK, time to get spicy food.

Knitting by the fire: achieved! And it was everything I hoped it would be. I am much more chill now. And! The front and back of my sweater are complete! Now if only I could find my pattern book so I could make a start on the sleeves. I also cannot find my big bag of yarn, and I suspect the two are in the same place. I just don`t know what place.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
YAY for LSO being home!
I am not drinking, but I am awake, after a long long nap. I do have a little bottle of decent sparkling wine for later, but later might be next year.

I just found a bag of partially completed knitting in the closet. frog it all and start over or finish?

Finish! This project`s going on a year and a half, but I`m still getting a lot of enjoyment out of it! I did have a terrible revelation, though. I am an Unhappy Hipster! I am wearing black cargo pants and a grey ribbed cowl neck sweater and black flip flops with short black hair and black glasses. I am sitting on a squared off modern black leather sofa. Drinking tea out of a white square mug with black interior. Knitting a black and grey sweater. If you`d taken my picture against the white wall, I would have looked straight out of Dwell. But I`m happy! I swear!
