Sick, Sick, Sick

Yuck. What's worse than a winter cold? I've felt sort of under the weather all week long, and last night, it really hit me. My ears hurt, my throat hurts, even my hair hurts. Ugh. All I want to do is vegetate. I did venture outside briefly to take my Saturday Sky picture. It's been a while since I posted one of those, so here it is. Nice blue sky. Looks lovely, doesn't it? It's somewhat misleading, though. Those little white clouds are accompanied by wicked winds of arctic temperatures. And every now and then, one of those blasts of wind is accompanied by a five minute blast of snow flurries.
Because of the cold weather, my birdfeeders are doing quite a business. I have the squirrel feeders filled up, but as you can see, they still go for the birdfeeders. This particular feeder is filled up with safflower seed coated with hot pepper powder. I'm told that squirrels hate safflower seeds, and that they cannot stand hot pepper powder, but


Am still knitting along on my Cherry Tree Hill gift sock. I'm heading to the toe, and I don't have a picture of the progress I made since last night. So, just to put some actual knitting pictures on here, I've got some pictures I took today of some afghan squares

Heh. While typing the last sentence of the last paragraph above, my phone rang. Our unit secretary was on the phone telling me I was the mandatory on-call, and needed to get in there.
So, I did. Fortunately, I was only there for three hours, which isn't bad at all. So, I'll finish my post, get my pictures up, and get this thing published.
