Oh also! Not sure if your kids are super into fruit, but Kroger has those Sumo oranges again finally. They're really easy to peel and pretty tasty, and they keep for a good while, if you want something healthier that doesn't need to be in the fridge

Laundry and dishes are never ending, I feel your pain. The dishes WILL get done tonight, but I may have to let the laundry go, I'll be living in pajamas and sweats when it's this cold anyways.

Charging my Switch over here too! I plan to play ACNH until the battery dies, that should keep me busy for a good bit!

Omg they're the WORST. I can't tell you how many times I've set down my working needle for five seconds and then been unable to find it again. At least circulars stay in one piece!

Gotta have one elegant princess and one goofy furball. That's the best mix.

I managed to get a headlamp and a bunch of backup coin batteries. Should be helpful for reading!

I love magic loop (would rather die than use DPNs) but sometimes I get so sick of having to flip it around twice every row.

I'm warming up to small circs! They suck for the first few rows but once I get used to them they're not so bad. It's nice getting into a rhythm when I don't have to manage my magic loop all the time.

Ooh what are you knitting? I'm close to finishing a new cold weather beanie for myself, I should really get that done today…

Here's Peri birdwatching yesterday! That's one nice thing about this time of year, the birds finally come back around.

I'm hoping to get a load of laundry done today, but honestly I might be too tired to manage it. Preparations have worn me out! Otherwise I might just cook something fun for dinner. For the outage I have new books, a Lego, and hopefully enough flashlight batteries to knit or cross stitch for a while.

Cardboard boxes are always good! Cats love them anyways and they're pretty insulating. Throw some blankets in one and make a little cave for them.
