It's snowing in Seattle right now, and I'm just watching to make sure it doesn't start sticking to the road. If it does, I'll be on my way. Can you see the flakes, now?

We finally started Christmas shopping yesterday. Now I have to remember where I stashed some other presents I bought during the year, which I saved for the special occasion. And I really have to start knitting away. Maybe I can avoid some of my relatives till after the holidays, when I'll have completed their gifts. That's what I get for being crafty and hating the mall.
Happy shopping to all of you and maybe next time I'll have some Christmas decoration stories to tell. We still have to get a little tree for our place.
-g p.s. The safety key on the treadmill is the best invention this week. Remember to always clip the other end to your pants. It's a very good thing that it makes the treadmill stop when you trip while walking on the treadmill and talking on the phone and watching TV all at the same time. (I'm glad I was home alone. :-P )
