Did I mention?

So..... it comes to mind that I haven't written here for about a million and a half years....so I probably never mentioned that I got engaged.

Whoops!

Well, I got engaged. My rediculously awesome boyfriend (now fiance) took me a on a cruise to Alaska and popped the question right in the middle of it. Sooooo, I now have one of the Big-Life-Questions (tm) figured out - I know who I'm lucky enough to spend the rest of my life with. And I am lucky, trust me. My recent bout with food poisoning this past weekend showed me that. After running all the errands I'd asked him to, including going to the grocery store for specific sickie-foods, he came home and made me toast and handed me a bouquet of flowers. Do you know what makes food poisoning better? That's right, getting flowers. I don't know why it works, it just does. It might be magic.

Now I am on the mend, hoping to get a lot of work done today, and hoping to be able to cook dinner tonight. That should be a nice reward for the guy who took care of me all weekend even though he wasn't feeling all that well himself.

And in other news, I finished the Aeolian Shawl from Knitty (well, Knittyspin).
There she is in the picture, knitted out of me-own handspun and blocking cheerfully.
