It's funny how the articles are all coming out now, saying how good knitting is for us, when we have known it all the time. Love and hugs to you and your frayed nerves as you adjust to a new normal.

I'm trying to deal with grief, the military paperwork (he was retired army) and my water heater. In order not to go off the deep end, I decided to make something beautiful out of something tragic.

The click of the needles and changes in the pattern are an instant balm to my frayed nerves. pajamapathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418068644963740995noreply@blogger.com
