ok i'll try to be a little less negative. Didn't go yarn shopping yet so will go tomorrow morning. That always cheers me up. I'm making scarves for my son and his gf that i'll give them when they visit in early January, we'll have a postponed christmas then and I can get something for myself and wrap it up so I have something to open then. I've been eyeing one of those crochet bags that has storage pockets for hooks and scissors and other tools, and a big section for yarn, etc since H has so many doctor appointments, it would be nice to bring whatever crochet project I'm working on in one of those instead of a grocery bag They might even have the one I want at Joann when I go tomorrow, if not I'll buy one on Amazon.
