Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Sunday

Happy Sunday

I don't have any sunrises from this week
because I couldn't go walking.
This sunrise is from a few years ago at Deep Creek Lake
about 10 miles down the road from town.
I think it must be one of the prettiest I've ever seen.

I don't think this Christmas song is one that is heard very often.
We sang it at church this morning.

๐ŸŽถ Infant, Holy, Infant Lowly ๐ŸŽถ
It's a Polish song translated by Edith M G Reed

1. Infant holy, infant lowly,
for His bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ, the babe, is Lord of all.
Swift are winging angels singing,
noels ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the babe is Lord of all!
Christ the babe is Lord of all!

2. Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of the gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing, greet the morrow:
Christ the babe was born for you;
Christ the babe was born for you. 

๐Ÿ“– Luke 2:12 ๐Ÿ“–

And this shall be a sign unto you; 
Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, 
lying in a manger.

A Blessed Sunday to you.

Slippers, mittens, and inserts

We've had another one of those foggy dreary days.

๐ŸงถIt was stitching morning at the library.
6 of us there this time.
I started knitting a pair of slippers for myself but didn't
get very far, in fact I got nowhere and ripped it all out!
I did too much talking ๐Ÿ™‚ and kept making mistakes.

Started the slippers this afternoon at home and didn't
have any problems.
I'm using up yarn left over from other projects.
By the time they are finished the slippers should be colorful.

Posted a picture of the mittens I knitted with the pattern
on my Made by Happy K blog
which you can see
HERE

The padded heel inserts came in the mail today 
and I put them in my slippers and they seem to be working okay.
I'm giving myself one more morning of not walking
and Monday I'm going to go walking!!!
I'll transfer the heel inserts into whatever shoes I'm wearing.
Will probably get some more so don't have to keep transferring them.

Stuffed pepper are in the oven now and we should be
having supper in just a few minutes.

That's all I have for today.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you are having a wonderful day.
