That one's for the profanity afficionados I've got around here.
The husbeast just called. He's got leave for Christmas.
It's official. I've got to finish these damn scarves. By the 20th.
Fuck.

Backstory
- Julie
- Pennsylvania, United States
- I'm currently a stay at home mother, freelance writing on my off time, wondering how I became part of the ten thousand year old tradition of raising the kids while creating textiles. I grew up in NE Ohio dairy country, married a sailor, lived in Hawaii ten years, lived in SC for five years, then moved back to culture shock and confusion. Nothing but good times ahead.

You'll do it! You know you will. Maybe the adrenalin rush will take your mind off the migraines!
Dang it! Oh well...you've got mad skills. I'm feeling good about this!
Only a knitter would be upset that Christmas is apparently coming early this year - I'm sorry!
How long will he be gone for? How sad that you can't be together on Christmas :(
Oh, sorry, I guess I wasn't clear enough.
Getting leave is like getting a vacation. It means we're for sure going to Ohio for the holidays. We had been discussing staying home, and I was liking the sound of not having to drive 28 hours round-trip. With a baby. And possibly a cat.
But this way I see my family. Even if I do have to give them presents. Haha.
Wow. I am not very smart at all...
Haha aw well, it will be a very merry christmas then. Worse comes to worse you can give people a present still on the needles (I've done it before). And then knit it while they call you every five minutes asking you if it's done.. .
