i don’t want to over share, so suffice it to say that Tai Chi Man and I had a rough night’s sleep last night. He caught a tummy bug and was having to stay close to the bathroom on Sunday. Yesterday we thought he was fine but at 3am this morning he was back in there! And so was I! Luckily we have an en suite and a main bathroom upstairs and another full bathroom downstairs, because with the kids not wanting to sleep at night and being in the bathroom last night, and hubby in the en suite, I had to run downstairs.

I am grateful that (a) it does not involve vomiting and (b) it’s not painful.

So I am still in my pjs with oregano oil on my feet, hydrating with lemon water and self-medicating with Yorkshire tea!

And I finished another row of squares on the Grandma’s Knickknacks blanket. (Might as well be productive despite calling in to work sick!)

Progress report:

96 squares done out of a potential 180 (unless I get really fed up with it)

current size 46 x 28.5″

I updated my Ravelry project page and was surprised to see that I started this blanket in May. It’s taken nearly four months to get this far, but I have been making other projects here and there to satisfy my finishitis cravings.

It’s a wet and cloudy day today and the window thermometer is displaying a chilly 12 Celsius, so being indoors and having a crocheted blanket-in-progress on my lap is perfect. A friend of mine said the other day on Facebook that she had already turned on the heating in her house. I identified her problem as not having any crocheted blankets, so I gave her my bulky pink/chocolate ripple blanket, finished earlier this year.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
