Dear Mr. Virus,

To say that your arrival Monday afternoon was a surprise would be an understatement.
I was shocked really.
You've always had horrible timing but this really takes the cake.
Not that I can eat cake, thank you very much. Ever since you landed I've had trouble swallowing.

It would be nice if you could check your calendar and match it with mine for future visits.
It's the Christmas season. It's literally 7 days till Christmas Eve.
I have stuff to do, and entertaining your infectious arse isn't on the list.
I have a houseful of people to prepare for this coming Saturday.
I have a dinner on Christmas Eve to prepare
Plus I have a Christmas Brunch and Dinner to prepare on Christmas Day!

Really. could you have picked a worse time?
I have gifts I need to get shipped
I have gifts I need to finish knitting
I still have to invade the mall and do a little Christmas shopping.
spending all day with you yesterday trying to convince you to take a hike was a wasted day and none of what needed to get done could get done.
You literally zapped me of all my energy.

It's not fair, it's not nice, and I think you've overstayed your welcome.

It's time for you take your leave.
I don't have time for you right now.

Sincerely,
C. McSickypants.

p.s. please return my voice before you leave.

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
