Here is the Silver Anniversary scarf so far...notice please the invisibility of the join :) Ultimately oxymoronic, eh? Notice the Invisible, indeed. Grammar Avengers may be revoking my membership today as I am totally out in left field, writing from the hip, as it were.
Yesterday was the anniversary of the day I knew for sure my Daddy was going to die. Specialists had been predicting it for nearly 15 years, but this time I KNEW, and so did he. My body remembers....and so I had to write a memory to make myself feel better. The words poured out, effortlessly. I shook and sobbed when I pushed PUBLISH. Another pocket of grief, released into the ether. As the responses came in, especially the emails, I felt my circle of support expand. We joined hands and danced, weaving the ancient steps of Horas without borders. Thank you. May the Blessings return to you one thousand fold!

Writing from the hip - what a GREAT way to put it. And I happen to like that digital shot! Yarn is notoriously elusive when it comes to being photographed - runs and hides its beauty under the flash's harsh light. WE know what you've got there, and it's terrific! yeehaw! say hi to Sponge Bob and pals.

Greta, I did not comment yesterday because I didn't know what to say. Once you know me better, you will know what a rarity that is. Your writing and your memories are so moving.
I think the pic is fine, but then all of my pics look like a 2nd grader took them with a Brownie camera (anyone old enough to know what that is?) If you learn how, you can teach me! I hate the way my digital camera messes up the colors. I almost feel like if I have to correctly describe the colors every time what is the point of posting a pic? I enjoy seeing everyone else pics so much. Except for one thing...
I get that..."oooh, I wanna do that too-itis!"
