I went and saw Helen today. And her dogs were pawing all over me. All three with their little soft paws pushing against me, tails wagging sniffing like crazy. Typical dog behavior, no? NO. They’re usually happy but not THAT happy. I took it as they smelled the baby and were very very happy.

Alan’s mom gave us some money for Christmas. And Alan wants me to spend $100 on myself. He wants me to buy something frivolous. I would like a new coat, not frivolous at all but does meet the criteria of for myself. I’m thinking he is hinting that I should be spending $100 on yarn!!
