I have been missing in action the last couple of Sundays for my weekly blogpost. Our Christmas took some unexpected turns this year ---as the saying goes, life happens when you are making other plans. Our daughter's dog, Finn, had surgery on Dec 19th to remove a broken tooth. After the surgery, he went into kidney failure and was in the animal hospital for 10 days in intensive care to receive treatments to improve his kidney function. Thankfully, his kidneys are now working normally again and he is home and feeling much better. The vets at the hospital called his recovery a miracle as his prognosis was initially very poor. We are all very happy that he is now home with our daughter and is mostly his usually perky self. We spent the holidays at our daughter's place and are thankful that we could be together to support each other through the stress of Finn's illness. Finn is our daughter's faithful sidekick and COVID lockdown buddy and we all love him. This picture was taken a couple of days after he got out of the animal hospital.


I made my husband and my daughter small pouches for their headphones or their charging cables. I made a lot of these as gifts this year for other family members and friends. Here is a link to the pattern.
I brought some knitting with me to my daughter's and worked on a dishcloth. It is not quite done yet. I hope I have enough yarn to finish it!
