2. søndag i advent / Second sunday of advent

En smule forsinket....

I går var jo 2. søndag i advent.

Ufattelig nem at få til at gå - jeg arbejdede nemlig fra morgen til aften!

Men jeg nåede da at pakke gaver ud, inden jeg skulle ud i sneen!

Så - se lige her! Jeg har jo byttet advents-kalender med Lisbeth - og det er bestemt en fed fidus! Jeg fik det smukkeste, lilla "Jitterbug"-garn, produceret i (og importeret fra, gætter jeg) Wales. Smukt meleret farve.

Nu har jeg jo hele 2 adventskalendre, og fra Anette i Esbjerg fik jeg den fineste strikke-hækle-bog samt 4 nøgler garn. (I lige præcis en farve, der passer mine indfarvningstilbøjeligheder....)

Søsterens pakkekalender var ikke mindre fin. Et hjemmelavet puslespil! Med autoriseret maleri af niecen og én af hendes veninder, og uautoriserede sorte klatter fra lillebroderen.... (Det "søde" barn!)

I dag havde jeg så fri. Skønt! Sidste mandag gik dagen med at jagte nullermænd. I dag gik øvelsen på at finde sofabordet under bunkerne. (Det var et lykkeligt gensyn!) Desuden fik jeg en gæst. Men mere om det i morgen!

A bit late....

Yesterday was the second sunday of advent. It really went by easily, since I had to work all day. I did open my gifts before going to work, though!

I have 3 advent-calendars. Two for the sundays, and one for everyday. One of the sunday-calendars was from Lisbeth (we switched gifts. Great idea!) and I had the prettiest purple "Jitterbug" yarn, product of Wales.

In the other sunday-calendar I had the very nice knitting- and crochet book together with 4 skeins of white yarn (my favorite colour for my dyeing activities!)

In my sister's calendar I found a homemade jigsaw puzzle. With an authorized painting by my niece and one of her friends and some un-authorized black spots by her younger brother (the "sweet" child!)

Today I had a day off. Wonderfull! Last monday the activity was chasing dust-balls. Today I had fun finding my coffee-table beneath huge piles (mostly yarn). We were very happy to see each other again!

Then I had a visitor - but I will tell you more about that tomorrow.
