A NEW YEAR

I can not believe it is the middle if January.  Where has the time gone?..............
Bill is finally over the flu after about  6 weeks and has lost over. 50 pounds.  I have had an upset stomach for the past few days and have probably not lost an ounce.............. Life is definitely not fair.......... Not that I want  6 weeks of flu but would like to have lost a couple of pounds......

I am knitting a shawl for me right now. I am doing the 12 shawls in a year challenge.  Last year I managed to finish 6 and believe all but one were gifts.  Don't know if I will manage to make 12 this year but am going to try.

I am doing this on the IPad DH got me for my Birthday.  This was because Elizabeth spilt her Mothers French Vanilla Coffee on my Mac book and on the printer.  The Mac turns on but the keys don't work correctly.  The printer works but lies about paper jams.

 Christmas  was  lovely.  Jill had us over for brunch and gift opening and we all went to Cory and Aaron's for dinner and more gifts.  Che and Liz didn't get out for Christmas but other then them and Brianne we were all together.

I haven't figured how to put photos from my IPad on the blog so there may not be any photos for a while .

Cory went it the Island to visit Gran who was 93 this month. She is getting very frail and I don't know how much longer she will be with us .  Now that everyone is feeling better we are hoping to get over to see her this month.

Well today I think I will go root in my yarn stash to see if I can find the yarn I want for the shawl pattern Sharon gave me. alpacayarn.shptron.com/p/raku-suri-stole?pp=8&pp=8
This is one of those patterns that will probably take me months to finish.  I do tend to be easily distracted.............  OH look at that..............
Anyway that's why I have so many UFOs   .......... No I am not telling you how many.      Maybe this year I will actually get some of the UFOs finished ............. at least that is my goal.
