Sorry if you’re one of my clients trying to reach me by phone today it may be impossible. There’s construction vehicles outside of my office window that’s repaving the parking. Beyond the fact that it’s driving me insane with the noise, I don’t think there’s any way I can have a decent conversation by phone today so...

My sister-in-law has a great talent in creating this knitted stuffed toys. Apparently this is an art called Amigurumi.
