December 23 and a Revelation

To continue with what I did last Friday night…

Red paper with white dots

Now for the Revelation part.

Yesterday while I was at work reheating leftovers for lunch and trying to decide if I should get my knitting out during lunch, I had a revelation.  All knitting projects (except Mr. Aitch’s Musica mitts) are on hold.  I have been knitting feverishly for several days trying to get gift knitting finished for today.  Gift knitting for my co-workers.  Not happening.  I was putting too much pressure on myself and needed a break.  It wasn’t fun anymore. 

My family means more to me than my co-workers.  Sorry, Co-workers, but I don’t think any of you read this blog anyway.  Your Christmas gifts will be finished after Christmas.  Like it or not, that’s the way it is.

Has that ever happened to you?

We had Christmas with my son and his family.  My grandson helped decorate the tree.  If it’s still light when I get home, I’ll post pictures of his skillful placement of the ornaments.

This is what I worked on this past Friday evening:

I managed to get the bead garland and my paper Merry Christmas garland on the tree before I went to work this morning.  I hope my grandson will want to help decorate the rest of the tree when he comes later today.
