First, in Knitting…A bit ago – in a random act of kindness to myself 😉 I bought some purple yarn from Lion brand called Baroque that I just feel in love with – with the intent to treat myself to a oh-so-fashionable poncho. Well, I searched and searched. I even printed out a pattern or two. I looked at free ones and ones I’d need to buy. I even, gulp, decided that if it was crochet that was necessary to get a poncho, then that’s what I’d do! But I could NOT find anything to make me happy! Yesterday I started looking again….and I kept coming back to a very simple shawl….and I realized how nice my yarn would look in a shawl…and how cozy I’d feel all wrapped up in it! I started last night and already love the look of it! So, once again – comfort overrode fashion!
And, in my Family life…I finally went to the Dr. She asked why it had been so long since I’d been in…and I replied, “I guess I finally decided life was worth living!” LOL I know, a bit blunt, but it’s the truth. She was able to give me a referral to the sleep clinic. I’m starting to be hopeful that I might start feeling better! I’m not going to look at the ‘what ifs’ – I’m going to be optimistic that they can and will help me!
I wore my new scarf today – love, love, love it! Well, I had more to say, but Homeschool Park day is calling – I’ll try and write tonight!
