Ya know there's lots of kinds of knitting like "Dang its cold out and I need a hat" knitting and gift knitting and something to do knitting and for some of us there's even work knitting. But you wonder if they'll like it and should you even bother and will it fit or heaven forbid they decide they're allergic to wool.
When did it all get so complicated?
Well yesterday a friend and I threw off our responsibilities (I've got deadlines and she's a mom who has returned to college) and went out for Greasy Burgers of Death for lunch (with fries) and then spent the afternoon camped out in my living room with yarn and daytime TV. It was blissful. The best knitting ever.
It was the most relaxing afternoon I've had in eons. We both have kids and we both have dogs so she wasn't concerned about the toys on the sofa or the hair balls on the floor and she drinks coffee too. We chatted some and were quiet some and we did a lot of knitting. Such a pleasant reminder of how completely liberating greasy burgers and an afternoon of knitting can be.
Soooo jealous...
Glad you had a good time.

Sounds like life is giving you a moment to breath. How lovely, just in time for the holidays.

So. Jealous.
I am trying to schedule one of those days for Sunday. Pray for rain. (It's the only way it will work.) Was it as delicious as it sounds??????
