    My foster dog just left with her new family.....  I'm feeling much sadder than I should be right now.

    I know this feeling all too well. A million hugs to you and cliche "you did your part to give them a better life" comment. ❤️

    Usually I'm shooing them out the door.  It's these old farts that really get to me, man... lol

  • Aww @smushi it's just that your a good foster mom. I don't blame you for being sad.

    @2goofykids glad to hear you made it safely! Supportive hugs, you'll make it through.

  • @smushi I wouldn't be able to foster dogs just for that reason. Hugs to you for giving them warm, safe places to live until they find their forever homes. Makes me very happy to know that someone adopted an older dog. I hope they give her lots of love.
  • So I've done nothing all day- until I picked up my crocheting at 3, and just finished my blanket at 8. I went for so long my right hand fingers are tingly, like they fell asleep... they feel better now. I just wanted to finish it tonight! Now I need to get more yarn and make things for my coworkers who are due before me (one is January 10th, the next is February 5th, then me on March 3rd).

  • Got my new coat, too. It's a bit big but I need room!! Love it. :)

    @smushi I've been there. It's tough.

    Glad you're feeling better @2goofykids!

    @charley15 I'm so jealous. I haven't made a single thing for this little guy and I have a pair of socks for my eldest on the needles now. Maybe I'll work on those today at third thanksgiving (I'm not cooking).

  • Anyone else "nesting" already??? 23 weeks and if something doesn't smell like vinegar then it must not be clean and I gotta clean it. Literally wiping down walls and deep cleaning like crazy!
  • We are driving back home from our 3 week vacation today and I'm having all the feels. We were back in our home town and all out families just love DD and miss her so much. Military life sucks sometimes.

    It's in the Thanksgiving recipes thread. It's amazing. (And I forgot to do the topping and it's still killer)

    @2goofykids I understand how you feel. My grandma was in a nursing home for I think 2.5 years when she had a second stroke this past September. I had just told her maybe 2 or 3 weeks prior that I'm pregnant and she was going to be a great grandma. Honestly I was shocked that she lived as long as she did, but I was getting hopeful that she'd get to meet her first grandchild. She was my best friend through my whole life and it hurt in general losing her, but then I'd think about how my son will never get to know her and it hurt even more. And she was my last living grandparent, so that was even harder. Sorry this probably doesn't help, but just saying you're not alone in how you feel!! I'm here if you need to chat, it's been a couple months since her passing now and it still hurts, but it gets more manageable each day. Hugs!!!

    Edit: autocorrect sucks

    Wahoooooooo the people whom we gave our 0-6 month boy clothes to still have them all. So not too much to stock up on!

    YAY!!
    My SIL just had a boy 4 months ago and has been packing up his outgrown clothes for me ever since we found out we are also having a boy!! GOD BLESS HER!!!


    My coworker has two girls under 2 and has told me she will be sending all their clothes my way! Hopefully someone we know will have a little girl after us so we can pay it forward.
  • Wow 6 days visiting family and I'm just catching up. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.
  • Italian Job is one of those movies you can watch over and over again and never get tired of. For us, it's our sound system tester. Just got a new receiver so of course we had to try it out. Amazing!

  • @charley15, what do you do? How is it that you have time to make such beautiful blankets AND also be at work?
    I think I'm jealous of that kind of job.

    I didn't want to get up today. Nor did my kindergartener. And of course he woke the other two littles, who were displeased about being woken. After no school on the 20th and then all last week due to strep and thanksgiving, this morn was extra hard!
    And I've had this cough for the past 4 days. Omg I swear I have to change undies from peeing when I cough a couple times an hour. I need some Depends. Over it.
    Hope everybody else is sliding back into the groove of the week easily. :)

  • @charley15, what do you do? How is it that you have time to make such beautiful blankets AND also be at work?
    I think I'm jealous of that kind of job.

    Seriously- Wednesday when I went to work (I'm a secretary for a small alternative ed. school), everyone else (staff and students) were already on vacation.  I had to come in to answer that ONE phone call, and get some stuff caught up.  But since I was stuck at work until 3, I had all afternoon with nothing to do! Lol I don't usually bring stuff like that in because I am the front desk, but with no one here and all other schools/staff on vacation, I was going to be pretty bored if I didn't! 

    I've already finished that blanket and started another one lol.  I have two coworkers due before me so I started one for the first one (due Jan. 10th).  Its about half-way done- not bad for buying the yarn and starting it yesterday lol.
