Holidays

I can't say that I have been scrooge this holiday. But I haven't been totally filled with the Christmashannaquanzika spirit.

Here we are, the two of us young adults, sitting in our living room with the TV off. Michael is listening to a Panther's game on the radio stream and I am just blogging after reading a book I did receive from his parents for Christmas.

The book is, "The Friday Night Knitting Club" by Katie Jacobs. I haven't read a book since the one in 2005, I know it's a shame. I use to spend a lot of my free time with my spiny 'friends' but not so much after high school. Anyway, I'm kind of in the middle about the book. It had points in which I wanted to cry and laugh aloud, but it was definitely systematic in it's style and story plot. And now there is another book, so, with that being said, I don't know if I will read it.

In the mean time, I have finished my hoodie. It's from my birthday this year, Michael bought the pattern and picked out the yarn. I will update pictures later, but you can find the pattern here.

Since we have moved, I've been unpacking and settling. I have also been working on paper garland for the wedding, as well as the normal day to day cleaning.

I haven't received any type of confirmation about my own health. It will be fine I'm sure. Although, I really hate the 'free market' healthcare system. I hated it before and I am still not completely keen about it now.

Better news, is that my bro's chemo is evidently working. His tumor has responded to the recent adjustments and hopefully soon he will be cancer free. I feel like this is the worst part, having him or my mom sick and it not being me. I know that I can handle it and have lived an ok life, but seeing and knowing that he is suffering, stinks.

Well soon, I will post some pictures. To bed I said! To bed Fred!
