Once Upon a Time.........

There was a beautiful mother and she had the most Perfect Little Girl (PLG) in the world. Every single day her PLG would make her bed right when she woke, brush her teeth without asking, do her homework perfectly upon returning From school and finish the day practicing her piano beautifully while her watched on beaming at her PLG while sipping a glass of wine..........then The Beautiful Mother woke up from her dream, sighed, tipped back the bottle of wine, asked her not-so-perfect-little-girl to, please make your bed (for the tenth time that that day), do your homework, pick up the dirty clothes (which I did if you call 'shoving them under the bed' picking up), and for the love of Pete please go practice the piano for half an hour at least!
It wasn't perfection, and I was not the easiest of daughters to raise, but I did grow up, I do make my bed everyday and for the most part my laundry does make it back into its proper place after I wash it. Most important of all though is this...............
1. My mom is still the most beautiful woman I know
2. She did more for me growing up than I could ever do for her now (I am trying though)
3. I don't like to share her with anyone, I get cranky if I think my 'mom time' is being threatened (sorry G) but I am getting better at that.......
4. Being adopted I truly believe that her and I were chosen to be together and I think that we've both learned a lot from each other in that regard.
5. There is no one I enjoy just 'being' with than my mom (no offense D it's different with the spouse)

I love you mom and can't wait to see you.......please block out your schedule to accommodate me only (just kidding)
Happy Mothers Day!

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

The countdown...

The Elbow has taken things a little to far. After three cortisone shots, icing, and squeezing exercises, it's just not behaving... Tuesday I went into the MRI tube do the Doc H. Could get a good look at what's going on...wear and tear is what's going on and it's only getting worse.. I can keep getting shots of cortisone but eventually they'll stop being as effective. Surgery will be the best option. That's right. SURGERY Wanna know the worst part? Recovery can take up to five months Five Months 5 FIVE months of no knitting... . . . I'll give you a second to get up off the floor... . . . You read that again didn't you? . . . my friend MzKimba has graciously offered to take care of my stash. However I think I'll just pack it all up and store it somewhere safe till I get the all clear from Doc H. Now all this being said, I have projects that need to be completed, so I'm going to try and schedule the surgery for som
