I’m Back!

by barbara waters

Thanks so much to daughter, Lessa, for posting on what has been going on. She’s a good one, but don’t tell her I said so. Haha

I am just peeking in - it hurts to sit upright for too long, so this will be a quickie - hopefully I can write the required 250 words (like THAT has ever been TOO much of a problem with the great winded one. lol)

Surgery Tuesday went well - I got out of the hospital Saturday afternoon and it felt SO good to be in my own little world again, I can tell you that! I see the doctor tomorrow to get these doggoned staples out - and to hear the pathology report. Both surgeons have told me that it was what it was - but it will be good to hear from the pathologist and to know that it was all gotten and that I am free and clear.

Since I’ve been home I’ve done a LOT of snoozing - some reading - some knitting (hey, I’m dedicated!) and some trash tv viewing. Watching other people’s concerns is a kick sometimes.

I started this scarf (from the One Skein Wonder book) Saturday evening and finished it today. I’ve wrapped it and am taking it to a Ladies Christmas Party tonight - I’m being picked up shortly by a very dear sister in Christ, who happens to be a nurse, so I’ll be in good hands.

Click to see the larger view on the right - there are knitted in loops on both ends to “tie” the scarf around your neck. Very cute - made out of wool - the same wool I made the Girl’s Christmas purse.

UPDATE: Back from the party - EXHAUSTED!!! (who knew having fun could be SO MUCH WORK?)

The young woman who received the scarf loved it. So, YAY! And, good night.

About Knitting Passion

Is knitting really a passion? On THIS blog it is - for all who come here. Blog entries will be made up of patterns, photos of in-progress or completed work - off the wall discussions about whatever tickles the author's fancy (Survivor Knitting anyone?). This can be as much YOUR blog as it is the current author's. Questions will be entertained and answers sought diligently. Comments are always welcome - and information ALWAYS appreciated. Will there be stories and pictures of the stash of yarn or the duplicated knitting needles? Will there be more off the wall ideas for knitting? Will there be original patterns or freebies cited? Only the dark of night and the author's amount of caffeine or sleep can determine that.

Ready? ONE - TWO - GET SET - KNIT!
