Good Timing

So, this weekend we agreed on a Christmas present for the two of us.. a chainsaw! One of us was very thrilled and happy as a kid in a candystore. The other of us was just happy that the other was happy.

But it doesn’t end there.

Sometimes the planets align so nicely, don’t they? That very same morning, a dear friend let me know that Canadian Tire was having an awesome sale on cast iron cookware. So, while hubby was out shopping for his new toy chainsaw, I called him to let him know of this great sale, and would he stop by and pick up the item? How could he say ‘no’ to that, having just spent a wad more than I was planning to. He happily did so. What a guy!

Here he is in his element:

And here’s my latest acquisition-ain’t she purdy?:

Oh, and I’m still on track with being creative at least 1/2 hour everyday. Actually, I was a little more creative than usual, because I extended the mitts and added ‘thumbs’ to these . I decided if I was going to wear them outside, short and thumbless just wasn’t going to work for me. I’ll have to make another pair strictly for working on the computer. These ones are very soft, made from an alpaca/mixed blend combo.
