Welcome to I Love Thursday! A group of us bloggers try to post positive and uplifting posts every Thursday. LeeAnna, our proud leader, has more fun posts you can read at her blog, Not Afraid of Color. Go visit and check them out!! I started a new knitting project. I wanted to use my new book, 52 Weeks of Socks by Laine. This pattern is called Gerste. I thought the yarn would be a nice color to wear under jeans and the pattern looks fitting as well. So far, so good! I'm not used to toe up socks. I usually prefer cuff down but it's nice to work outside my comfort zone.
I tired to enlarge this photo but I'm not sure it did much good. If you look closely, you can see a deer decided to hang out on our front walkway and nibble on our bushes. This was right after our last storm. It was a little surprising to see him out there so close to the house. Hope our shrubs are still alive!
Cute socks. Dawn always sends awesome gifts. You provided a deer buffet during inclement weather. Hooray you get the vaccine! I was pretty impressed to see that the elders in my tribe were receiving the vaccine already, followed by those that worked at the community clinic.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Colette! I wish the vaccine was being administered a little faster. The process seems slow and bogged down but maybe they'll figure it out and get quicker. Happy New Year!!
DeleteWe haven't heard anything about we elders getting vaccine as yet...glad to hear you are getting your 1st dose...
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR stay healthy and safe

I think it varies between states. In Massachusetts, the next phase includes people 75 years old and up. I'm not sure when that will start since nursing homes are next. My mom would like her vaccine too. I hope it's soon. Have a Happy New Year!
DeleteHi Rosemary! Your sock looks wonderful! I wish I could knit like that. So glad your number came up for the vaccine. The hospitals are a very scary place these days. You'll have to let us know how you feel after receiving the first dose. {{Hugs}} Happy New Year! ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteThanks, Roseanne! I'm looking forward to getting the vaccine but also a little nervous! Have a Happy New Year!
DeleteThe knitting is pretty! I see the deer - this snow storm seemed to bring them out - a number of my friends sent me photos. I had wondered where you'd be for the vaccine. Yay! That's exciting! I've signed up, but know I'll be way down on the list.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sally! As much as I want the vaccine, I'm still a little nervous to get it. I signed up as soon as I got the e-mail. I hope you get yours soon. Have a Happy New Year!!
DeleteLove your socks. I have them on my todo list. I have never made socks. Your hungry deer friend found a buffet at your house. They come close to our house too. One day 3 in driveway i had to beep ro get in. They wouldnt move! Lol happy new year and glad you can get immunity for covid.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Dawn! Hope the new year is better for all of us!
