just around the corner..........

Turn the bend too quickly and we might miss it.....March is looming upon us and with it the promise of spring. Daffodils are starting to pop up all over the neighborhood, the tulips are making their way up as well....I have one Pansy that has held on thru the entire winter gamely in my porch flower box and while I continue to knit on wool and warm things for babies and adults alike my thoughts start drifting towards the spring pattern collection that are showing up all over the place.......all that being said..........
It's been snowing off and on for two days here.
I'm pretty sure that my Pansy has drawn it's last breath as it was buried in yet another pile of snow
I have no faith that the daffodils in my yard will bloom (it's possible that I forgot to plant the bulbs but for now I'll blame mother nature and squirrels if they don't come up)
and
it's a balmy 23 degrees farenheit outside today
My Sweet Vermouth can't get done fast enough.

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...

Life in the Time of Covid

I have officially been working from home. Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June.
