Angels again

I've discovered that the best cure for nervousness is to knit, to crochet or to stitch. So I did.

A band of angels on my laptop:



















Thick felt, Madeira metallic threads. As I wanted to put them on christmas-tree I took some clothespins, painted them with gold acrylic and hot glued my angels to them.

Now I'm thinking about gnomes. :)

Hectic

This year's end seems hectic and just a step away from madhouse. There's happened so many things: I've quit my job - yes, I did it voluntarily and sometimes I think that now, when all people try to hold on to their jobs I'm deciding that it's a good time to take some time off - that this can't be clear thinking and I must have bats in the belfry or something. But the truth is I'm awfully tired and our son needs me more than he did before. He is growing and his problems are growing with him and at least for a while I must exist only for my family. It doesn't mean that I can't work - I've talked with the publishing house I worked for and occasionally I can translate a book, but I won't do this every day, as I have till now.

We have been away too. Jum Jum did have a psychiatric evaluation and so we have been in Tartu for almost a week. While being there, I got the news of my grand-aunt dying. Needless to say that with all these problems I haven't had very much time to think about other things.

So. About the exchange Kirsi hosted. I got a card from Sari from Finland. It's lovely, real christmassy and reminds me of snow we don't have (only yet, I hope). Thank you, Sari!
