So Christmas has already came and gone, and a blizzard is being created one day after Christmas, making it hard for any day-after-sale enthusiasts to get out and catch the deals. I have not made it out today, and my gut tells me I might not make it out at all. But its been cozy, so I can’t complain. I have two candles burning, one smells of pine needles the other of apples. Stefan and I have just finished a later lunch which is what you see above, a first for me. Lamb chops– I have never had them, but after today I am sure we will have them again.
I have been itching to get our house cozier than ever. But weeks and weeks ago that fervor helped me to develop carpal tunnel. So days of taking it easy {not really} I am ready to get back to it, cleaning, decorating, planning, there is a lot my little self would like to do. But I need to mind my healing. I want to take a trip in the near future to IKEA, I have want of some more coffee mugs, and I would like to get a square white frame to hang some art in our kitchen. Winter always leaves room for more indoor creativity and with that I am also anxious to get the watercolors out. As Stefan has spoiled me with getting me for christmas a set of very fine watercolors, sable brushes, and heavy acid – free paper. Now all I want to do is justify a day to set aside a few hours, and to go a little nuts.
My crocheting is still at a halt, as well as my used to be daily guitar banging. I am trying my best to behave, giving room for my wrists to heal. And I spend a little too much time thinking of how to stretch the rules. Hopefully, in time I can get back at what I love. This time off is a little torturous. What do you do when you can’t do what your used to doing? I feel like every chore and hobby involve my wrists, and that is just wrong, shouldn’t there be something I can do with my toes? Like toe crochet, or toe knitting– did I create an image in your head? If so, I met my purpose *wink*
