merry post-christmas

paul and i had a relaxing christmas at home in madison together. sitting by the fire. knitting, talking to relatives on the phone, preparing and eating great food, and opening a few presents. it was melty outside (and sunny! beautiful actually), so we didn't get to go skiing as we would have liked.

today had two highlights. 1) buying a vacuum (finally, after two weeks of searching and testing and talking and reading consumer reports), i'm happy i can start cleaning again and 2) reuniting with HEB at lakeside fibers. i learned what a yarn-over is and how to do it, and i started a new knitting project. i also go to catch up and talk in a fun environment with great people, which was very enjoyable.

goals for tomorrow are to:
-head to the century house (again). i am now in love with this store.
-enjoy the 3-5 inches of new snow falling, while paul and i hopefully go cross-country skiing for the second time this season--the first was last sunday in 15 degree weather and 30-40 mph gusts with snow falling, not optimal, but still fun.
-find my wallet. it has gone missing. it has my whole life inside it including important receipts. it's been missing for a few days now. ouch.
-clean the house, using the new vacuum.
-pack for chicago!
