Thanks to my Dad’s calming presence – I am NOT going to turn into a screaming crazy-woman in front of him!! – and a few phone calls to my techno-savvy/beer-making brother I can actually use this d%&^ MP3 player now!! And, man….it’s fun!!! 🙂
I did make a choice at Audible.com – the Bible! Duh! It’s the perfect classic! I was planning to keep my membership longer than the free month but then I discovered the world of Podcasts!!
This addiction to podcasts really can all be blamed on Roe – who discovered them about 6 mos or more ago and causally mentioned them one night at our knitting group (She knits – she crochets – she’s awesome! Sadly she got a newish job and we rarely see her anymore :-(). I logged the podcast information away for “someday-when-I-have-time” and instantly forgot about it!
Then, a few weeks ago when my site went down I found time! I found two podcasts on Lost (love that show) and enjoyed them online. But then yesterday my brother explained to me how I could download them into my player and listen at my convenience!! Woohoo!
And, I found oodles of goodies for knitters! Check these out:
http://www.cast-on.com/ – my favorite! Well, to be honest…the only one I’ve listened to so far! 😉 A beautiful essay by a homeschooling mom (!!) and knitter that should not be missed!  Also, a fun song called “I hate you” – which as a coverted left-hander (long story) made me laugh out loud!
Here are some others waiting to be listened to:

And the one I’m most excited about:
http://www.time2knitpodcastblog.blogspot.com/
which is a wonderful gift to knitters – audiobooks for knitters!
Check them out – and let me know if you know of any good ones I’ve not found yet! 🙂
I’m not exactly sure what a podcast is! 😆
