The yarn I ordered for my mitered squares came in. I was very strong and did not buy anything else. Having an under exercised dog on a leash helped a lot.
I continue canning. Yesterday I found plums just going to waste in a parking lot in Nevada City. I bagged up five pounds and made jam. I tossed in some orange peel and...well, YUM! I've also made peach-apple chutney which drove me mad for a while since the jars would not seal. I finally reprocessed using new lids. I think the decorative ones that came with the jars were sub par. The arrow points to the way cool scale that The Enabler gave me as a Christmas present a couple of Christmases back. I use it a lot. Next up: plums for wine.

That's interesting, I have had trouble with decorative lids once myself, though I persuaded myself that I had warped them somehow -- but maybe that wasn't the problem. The chutney sounds awesome, though.
Aww, look how beautiful Opie is. hard to see the keyring with an Opie in the picture!
Hope the toe swelling comes down FAST (and that it isn't broken -- I've hairline fractured mine two or three times now).
