Warm Thanks :

Salpal —for her commiseration around the murdered runner in Georgia. As a woman who runs, I am grateful that I have had so little damage. I do not think that bear spray or a GoPro camera would have saved her. Why are we hearing all about the manhunt for the person who took out an insurance don, but not about the monster who killed that runner?

The Yule Socks 2024

In Progress:

Stash toss 2024 (49 in versus 63 out)

The knit picks orders arrived with no chance to cancel.

Prepping the socks from StephieJo— yarn for feet located! Regia; both pesetas of sock needles have been run through with my lifelines, so now I can snip the halves apart and begin to work on the feet!

The 10-square bag:

Doing the sides, all the blocks are joined. Working up the first side panel.

Lakeside cardigan : Remaining: 1 set of front panels, each is 2x2, weaving those ends, attaching, then major remaining seams.

Vestuary24: finished the back! Working up the front.

Quilt squares and organizing—8 more squares done, 9 more started—we are at 19 finished so far. A quick run through Anna’s Archives to find the out-of-print log cabin and scrap project books I remember from days of yore.

Dizzy Blondes:

Still working on more merino from morrobayfleeceworks.com

3rd bobbin (sigh), but no progress

Strategy: Fair Hearing Trial- if you are refused insurance coverage and/or services. In CA

Do not accept an appeal back to the denying party; they are likely to just double down. Go to the Fair hearing Trial process. Google it for your state. You want an impartial judge or arbitrator.
