Busy, Busy Week

I’ve had stuff going on every night this week: Monday I had a rehearsal, Tuesday I took a needlepoint class, Wednesday I was in a recital. So tonight I stayed home instead of going to Sit & Knit, because I’m just really tired. And tomorrow I have yet another rehearsal. I’ve really overcommitted myself this month.

This morning we woke up to a light covering of snow on the deck, so after breakfast I stuffed Carrie in her bunting and let her wander around in the snow. She absolutely loved it! We weren’t going to buy her boots or a snowsuit this year, because we didn’t think she’d like the snow. Since she did, we picked up a pair of boots at Target this evening – this way she won’t ruin her everyday shoes and her feet will stay warm. I think in a few weeks when the snowsuits go on sale we’ll have to buy her one of those too. And I’ll just have to staple her mittens on, because she figured out she could take them off and play with the snow barehanded. I think the fact that they’re thumb-less is frustrating to her, but the smallest sizes of mittens all seem to come thumb-free. I suppose if her hands get cold enough she’ll stop taking the mittens off.
