By Chance?

Husband had surgery yesterday. He is home and doing OK. It did not go quite as planned but it will be OK. Sunrise this morning. 

I have been fretting about this surgery. So a friend knit this amazing scarf and sent it to me. She said it was a hug from her. And a book she just finished. 

While in the surgical waiting room I struck up a conversation with a woman next to me. After hearing of her husband's health issues. I said a prayer of thanks for my husband's issues.  Was it by chance she sat next to me or the universe giving me prospective?

I was asked for my soup recipe. So sorry I am a fly by the seat of my pants cook, no recipe. I did make some stock with the chicken bones.

I gave my house plants some food. They are looking great. My bay leaf plant. Great for soups.

We mis-judged how much wood to bring in so I have been working on that. A cold snap coming again this weekend.

I have been asked about cleaning my hooked rugs in the snow. You can do sweaters,quilts what have you. Throw in clean snow,then cover over with snow. I use a broom with my rugs but if clothing rub lightly with your hand turn over do the same. Shake out well. They will be damp-ish hang to dry. Hope that helps.
