But I mean well all the same.

I neglected to mention that I had used my gift card from my SP. Lookie!

The gift card plus supplemental help from me bought 10 skeins of this pretty red yarn that I mentioned in this post. Mmm, silky and wool sweater… drool…

Also, I had a surprise waiting for me when I got home from Galveston after Christmas. I am so pleased with it!

My mind reading SP gave me a Soy/Wool blend yarn that I’d been trying to talk myself into needing enough to buy. But she beat me to it and in the colorway I loved too! Felted bag? Here I come! I got some knitting necessities like darning needles and a measuring tape. (You knew I needed more of those how??) I swear the couch eats them! A delicious smelling candle! I got a moose crunch bar. heh heh - and they’re gooood. Popcorn-y, chocolate-y, other stuff-y goodness…

And best of all! Oh my woolly goodness!

SP, you gave me a moose!

I love this moose. This is my very favorite ornament EVER.

Do not even bother asking me what on earth could be going on in my addled brain that I like moose - I just do. I’ve never actually seen a live one either. But I like ‘em! An SP from a mellow round I did a while back, she sent me a Moose X-ing magnet that promptly went on proud display in the smack middle of my fridge door so it could not be missed and now! Now I can spread the moose-y love to my Christmas tree!

I may have squealed like a 9 year old girl at a Hilary Duff concert…
