The Meltdown...

That's what I had at the suggestion that we cook another turkey for Christmas Eve.
I cooked three turkeys during November and have come to one solid conclusion.
I love everything about cooking a turkey dinner.
The mashed potatos
The stuffing
The baby peas
The dinner rolls
The sweet potatoes
The Jell-O salad that my mom makes

 Except

I can't stand to eat turkey

So when it was suggested very nicely by my husband that we cook a Turkey for Christmas Eve (the turkey sitting frozen hard as a rock in our freezer) I felt so much rage toward that little fowl that I flat out refused to do it. Short of laying on the ground and kicking and stomping my feet. (it's possible I did that but I won't confirm)

Nope
Not gonna do it
Want nothing to do with it
Nope Nope
NOPE
No.

I pick up the Honey Baked Ham on the December 23rd

Bring on Festivus!

haha, then he should cook the turkey if he wants it! We always do ham and turkey with my family, but it's never at my house- I've only cooked a turkey once in my life, and it was certainly an experience.

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

The countdown...

The Elbow has taken things a little to far. After three cortisone shots, icing, and squeezing exercises, it's just not behaving... Tuesday I went into the MRI tube do the Doc H. Could get a good look at what's going on...wear and tear is what's going on and it's only getting worse.. I can keep getting shots of cortisone but eventually they'll stop being as effective. Surgery will be the best option. That's right. SURGERY Wanna know the worst part? Recovery can take up to five months Five Months 5 FIVE months of no knitting... . . . I'll give you a second to get up off the floor... . . . You read that again didn't you? . . . my friend MzKimba has graciously offered to take care of my stash. However I think I'll just pack it all up and store it somewhere safe till I get the all clear from Doc H. Now all this being said, I have projects that need to be completed, so I'm going to try and schedule the surgery for som
