We went visiting...

It was just a week to visit family over the Thanksgiving holiday.

And then we all immediately came down with a decidedly unpleasant cold that lasted a tad bit longer than the visit had.
Boy spent much of his recovery time listening to Hardcore History and reading H.P. Lovecraft.  Both contained the phrase, "Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin",  which, while fun to recite, always brings to mind the scene from A Knight's Tale: "You have been weighed.  You have been measured.  And you have been decidedly found wanting," which makes me laugh every time despite the seriousness implied.
There was also snuggling with the cat:

As well as hurriedly decorating for upcoming Winter Festivities:

It is important we have the right ambiance, as we are inventing a holiday in between Christmas and New Year that involves eating and drinking tasty things (that don't require silver ware) while wearing ridiculous pajamas.

I've not taken any pictures of finished projects (three embroidery pieces and a sweater).  Though in my defense, things are just a teensy bit over-whelming right now, as well as the light being downright awful for simple photos.
I have to catch up at some point, right?
