Family

My nephew didn’t sign his enlistment papers. And we all quietly cheered behind his back while pretending to be drinking our Diet Cokes and being distracted by some song on the radio.

And he has a girlfriend! And she is cu-ute.

I talked to my cousin and his wife last night and it was nice to hear them sounding so happy.

My New Year’s resolution is to not age into some anxious grouch. At least, not all the time. Ha.

I’m completely in love with this afghan I’m finishing up for Sam, the giant granny square one.

Um, the afghan being the giant granny squares. Sam is not, as far as I can tell, a giant granny square.

It just makes me laugh. It has all the charm of a regular granny square while also a certain preposterousness that makes me happy.
