From Sewing machine to Knitting machine...

Well, I've wandered a bit from my sewing machine to my knitting machine. My wrist are a bit achy lately so I've put the quilting aside and I am trying my hand at knitting with my Brother KX-350 machine to make wee hats for preemies at the hospital. I only have to sew up a seam and it is done. I will keep the task of sewing up the seam for when I go to the UFO's. I have so far made 16 of them with a lot more to come once I get more yarn.
Zeller's will be closing it's doors in March, so I am hoping that the baby and sports weight yarn will be lower in price.

We have been hit by two snowstorms so everything is nice and white. The sun is shining today and it makes for nice bright light coming in the house. Man, we sure need the light as it has been quite grey for way too many days.

I think we are in for a long winter.

The son of a friend of mine is going through tough health problems at the moment so I would like to ask that if anyone is so inclined to please add them both in your prayers. 
Dear God, make us strong and guide us in prayer for all that need you at this very moment. We all need your holy hands to touch our hearts with your everlasting love, Amen.

I did a little booboo last evening, I had my iPad on the keyboard of my laptop and when I moved the iPad, the cover got caught on a key and it popped off. I tried putting it back on but no luck and I sort of need the comma. I guess I will have to bring it to the shop for repair.
Sort of looks like a lost tooth! lol

An update on the keyboard... :-)
Jan 2nd, although the warranty was over it was fixed at no charge... very good service from Ordinix!

That's it for today, I really must go sit by my window and enjoy the beautiful view of the sun on the snow.
