packing...

The stocking are being hung and the tree is being decorated... and I'm packing to leave for Iowa tomorrow. My brother is very ill and my sister and I are going to fly out to visit him. I'm really afraid of the cold. I haven't been in a cold climate for about 15 years and have given all my warm clothes away to good will. The temp will be some where around 80 degrees when I depart and around 4 degrees when I arrive.. I'm going to layer the clothes that I have and just hope that I will be warm enough. My sister is bringing a coat for me to wear and I'm bringing an extra hat for her. Did I mention that I'm bringing a lot of scarves and hats and wrist warmers to wear over knit gloves.

I whipped up another scarf that I'm going to bring as a gift and a slouchy hat that will hopefully keep my head warm. I return on Friday and will maybe have a little time to blog again then. (^_^)
