You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight.
Fever, in the morning,
Fever all though the night.Actually we had this kind of fever in our house last night and today
.
The little one has a fever, but no other symptoms of anything but a headache last night. We went to the doctor and got a prescription for Tamiflu to be taken of she starts developing any symptoms. She has been acting completely normal all day today (no, I didn't go to work), so I don't think there is much to worry about.
I gotta tell you though, it is weird being home all day....or most of the day. Especially when John is downstairs shouting into the phone all day and I have to entertain the youngster. If you don't know, the market had its biggest one day drop since Sept '01...and it wasn't the best day of trading at the House of Coton.
I did have my second visit with the acupuncturist. Holy crap. She really took it easy on me the first time. OUCH! I do know that due to where she has to place the needles...the pain is much more severe than if she was doing my back or shoulder.
I also received pretty much all the packages I was waiting on....except for the Blue Moon Fiber Arts package and the KMKS swap package which is either not coming or coming on a slooooooow boat....here are the spoils.

Yep, is it a LOT of stuff. But hey, that is why I work....so I don't have to feel guilty when I buy things I want! Notice the CASES of Girl Scout cookies in the background!
Here are some close ups of the yarn...I had some good light.
Left to right - Colinette Jitterbug sock yarn - Mardi Gras Colorway, MamaE's Sock yarn - Winter Tundra colorway - Brooklyn Handspun - Winter Tundra colorway, and Duet Sock yarn - Army Girl colorway.
Then comes
Punk Pink - from Scout's Swag 60% Merino, 30% Bamboo, 10% Nylon sock yarn (this was the February installment of swag) - the next one is sock yarn from Sceintilly Clad in the Nightline colorway, then the February installment from the Posh sock club - Kiss Me. Also two skeins of Lisa Souza sock yarn - Violet's Pink Ribbon and Can't Elope.
In my order from Paradise Fibers, I got this...
to make the Fiber Trends clogs. The pink was a second...and I just told the owner to send me a dark brown that looked good next to the pink. I love getting surprised with great color combos.
Some of the other items are the 4 Barbara Walker Treasury books, the Victorian Lace book, and yarn meter, a sweater stone (hopefully this will help tame the hairy bag)...and which I also found at the Container Store. I also purchased some more Knit Picks circulars in tiny sizes with the Chart Keeper.
All in all, a good haul.
