It's all good!

The hat is still going well. I am now ready to fold the inner flap up and join it to the top then finish off the chart and begin the rest of the hat. The nephew will be happy because it should be tall enough for him to wear like he is a hoodlum which is apparently cool. I am old.


The Father-in-Law had a gold tube inserted into the blocked artery Monday and was discharged this morning. Apparently since he was recuperating well and there was no sign of infection anywhere, they figured he could go home for the rest of the recovery.

Apollo's lump turned out to be an abscess. It's been lanced and you really don't want to hear the rest. We are very happy. The Mr. had me practically off my head telling me that he had a dog who suddenly got a big lump like that and it turned out to be cancer. Bugger. He was trying to help, I suppose. Prepare me for the worst. Yeesh.

We have a line on a nice family type vehicle that is cheap enough to allow us to buy out the remaining 6 months of our lease and get it without raising our monthly car payments by too much. Of course this means I have to bring in a bit more each month so if you know of a casual job and that doesn't mind if I have another higher priority casual job...

We are a light and happy house today.
