3 Day's and 60 Miles

Back in 2007 I signed up to walk the Breast Cancer 3 Day.
The training is tough but it's really more toughening up your feet.
It's the people you meet. Survivors, family members of survivors, people walking in rememberance of loved ones who were lost to breast cancer.
It's a huge grippingly emotional event. I loved it.
We all planned to do it again but as it always happens, life got in the way, until this year.

Left to Right: Me, Alyssa, Tami, and Amy.
Alyssa Tami and I are teamed up again.


Part of our team are back together to walk again and make a difference.

That's where all of you come in.
You can help us make a difference by making a donation to my walk.
My Goal is $5000.00 and I am 27% there...

Any amount helps.

Everyone is touched by breast cancer. It's a devastating disease, taking our loved ones from us much to soon.

We all need to help find the cure. To honor those who have fought and lost as well as those who have fought and won.

Please consider helping.

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
