This week

Wow, that's all that can be said. I got some knitting done, sitting in the hospital gives you time for things like that. My other half, D, has been VERY sick, it turned out to be a bad case of the flu on top of a bad UTI, but she was in a lot of pain, and very ill, so I took her to the ER, they did a CT of her abdomin to rule out a ruptured appendix, well, they found a cyst on her overy that is over 10 centimeters. We have to see her OB/GYN tomorrow to sort this out, but she'll most likely need surgery. And if that isn't enough, I have to have an MRI of my head because I have been having headaches constantly and my memory is getting SCAREY bad, I mean I have picked up my knitting in the morning and had to get a book with diagrams to remind me how to knit bad, and I have knitted almost every day for almost a decade!

But as for the knitting, I did a cute pillowcase on my Bond USM (that my sweetheart got me) in a hot pink/neon varigated for our oldest son, AJ, he loves pink. I also made him a cute hat in that new Red Hat Strata self striping worsted yarn, I like that yarn it's really cute, and with 3 kids, very washable! I also finished sock 1 and got started on #2 from my new book, it's a cool cabled sock in worsted yarn, for hanging around the house. I'm doing them in a forest green Lion brand Wool-Ease it's warm and comfy, and once again, very washable.

I'm not very much in the mood to knit lately, I haven't touched my needles all day, I'm worried about the GYN tomorrow, and about the MRI too. I'm fighting depression pretty bad. I just don't want to do anything. Dyan has been so great though, she is trying so hard to make me feel better. And she is making me feel better, in a way, she is also making me feel really guilty because she is facing an awful possibility at the Dr. herself and she is spending all her energy paying attention to me and trying to cheer me up, I should be putting more effort into doing the same for her, I just don't have it in me today.

Blessed be,
