As the nights get longer and colder, I have a beautiful blanket like this one that I always reach for to layer on my comforter.
Pendleton’s Yakima Camp Blanket is made in the U.S. from a cozy cotton/wool blend that’s made for curling up by the fire. The dark striped pattern is both attractive and practical — it will hide any dirt or stains. Use it as a throw around the house or keep it in the car for winter outings. It comes in queen and twin sizes as well.
This wool blanket is available at Amazon for under $150.

My second embryo transfer failed. I don’t think I’ll ever get to be a mom. I wish I could evaporate into thin air.
