Smatterings of Glimpsed Illumination

Still sick

Feb. 6th, 2013 at 8:13 PM

Tired of coughing, and being congested, but at least yesterday's head pressure that didn't relent until about 2/3 the way through my 12-9 shift has been absent today. Thinking healing thoughts, and did have a lovely soak in the nearby hot tub again.

And, there's socks! The only reason why

evannichols isn't drowning in hand-knitted goods from me is, well, a variety of reasons, mostly to do with a wool allergy and not being a sweater person. I did manage to make him a pair of purple wool socks after going on an outing for him to have a 'fiber feel-up' to see what felt good. We actually were able to find a super-soft 100% wool (Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Sport in case you're interested) and he picked a glorious royal purple.

So here are pictures via Ravelry! http://ravel.me/Thevina/hws

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. I got your lovely postcard about your address change. Nice pics of both of you.

Yes, it's not been a fun few weeks between Evan being sick and now me. I'm planning on this weekend being the fully recovery. So glad that you like the postcard! ♥

Hope you are feeling better today.

Um, those are some gorgeous socks! (My inner child is jumping up and own shouting, I WANT!! LOL)

Oh, your inner child should have some! ♥ I'm a bit better, but between a lunchtime meeting and Skypeing with my sister (and my dad and stepmom, who are in Salt Lake en route back to Wenatchee), my voice isn't great. But I'm still making phone calls tomorrow!

Ooooo! Love the purple!! My second favorite color!

So sorry you're sick. Hope you're on the mend.

I love your new altar! I've been into the healing in stones and minerals, too and have been reading up on their properties and uses. My friend uses them in her healing touch sessions sometimes.

We need to have a phone visit soon. I miss your voice! :)

I'd better be on the mend; I really don't enjoy being sick. Not fun at all. I do love the altar- I've not spent a whole lot of time there yet, but it's soothing even to be able to look over and see the space.

I'm calling this weekend! Last weekend I had almost no voice, so I'll try to make up for that this weekend. And we need to talk and see if you can still come down to Harrisonburg for a night while Evan and I are there— that trip is in 2 weeks!! :D

Hey there! Thank you! I saw your call come in just as I was going into a meeting yesterday. :( My schedule is impossible to keep up with, so I'll try calling you later on today. ♥

No worries. I got

lena3 as she was in her Museum meeting that same day. I have abysmal timing, as Severus would say.

Are you feeling better?
