RUN IF YOU SEE ME COMING

Be prepared to run if you see me coming. I've been knitting and writing all year, and I've got a new supply of ankle warmers, or boot toppers.

I know you don't want to hurt my feelings by telling me, "No, thanks, but I don't really need a pair of hand-knit ankle warmers" -- but if you refuse my offer, and later come down with a sniffling, wheezing, my-head-feels-like-a-rotten-squash cold, I will try to hide my i-told-you-so look for your refusal to take my advice about keeping your extremities warm at all times.
