Let the MAGIC begin...

One of my very wise painting teachers once told me that all of the magic begins for women at 50. Just you WAIT, she said, eyes twinkling, you'll SEE! So my dear friend Debbie and I often say "Are we 50 yet?" when we have those painful days of everything seeming to go so Wrong....no matter how hard we try...
Last night I was too exhausted to even think about opening my mail. I had two fabulous boxes (which since the return addresses give it away I KNOW are filled with fabulous fiber to knit with...) which are still sitting just inside the front door. There was another odd shaped envelope though, with lovely stamps and O.M.G. (really, how IS it, that just when you NEED a dose of magic it comes right in through the mail slot all the way from the other side of the Pond?)
Yeah, okay, so it is still WAY too cold for me out there this morning. I will bundle up in my layers and venture out to try and make a difference....but in HERE? Warm and toasty and filled with sweet dreams....
You KNOW who you are....may the Blessings be multiplied a thousand fold, dearest.
And, YES, I will try to figure out a way to always say YES. Count me IN.
In Knitting news, I've stopped starting new things and have set up a PLAN for finishing the Projects at hand. Sleeves for kiwi first, as I found the PERFECT buttons for that sweater while on the trip. Sleeves for Sonnet, next. Remember Sonnet? The Chicami twinset tank for under Sonnet. Sleeves (and hood) for Rogue. See the trend here? When you are up to your armpits in alligators, and it is difficult to remember that your orginal objective was to drain the swamp, KNIT SLEEVES.
No wonder I'm exhausted. My Brain is full, may I be excused?

You need to share some pics of your train knitting from you trip! Can't wait to see the progress. And think how nice it would be to wear Rogue since the weather has gotten cold again? :) Have a wonderful day Greta. Open up your boxes and indulge yourself. :)

You are definitely excused. Take some time for YOU! Do something for Greta. You must still be recovering from your loooong trip. Take it slow, sweet lady :)
