Old Dog...

My sister-in-law Teri had me for our Christmas gift exchange.  She made me flannel pillowcases and a night cap (hat, not drink) in a monkey motif.  She also gave me a cross stitch kit.  I have never cross stitched and was pleased to learn that it is not a very difficult skill to learn; that is if you can see it.

I had to go to the local pharmacy and buy a pair of those magnifying eyeglasses just to finish the sewing.  I had to get a magnification of 2.75.  I already wear glasses so this is probably the first sign that bifocals are on their way.  What a nice incidental Christmas gift-the gift of feeling old.  Oh well, at least this old dog can learn a new trick.
