Weekend Rewind:

Saturday dawned bright and early for me and the coffee wasn't brewing fast enough.
I had a casserole to make before leaving the house at 7:15 to drive Gabby down for her biannual senior wellness, bloodwork, and general look over. Her pain level of course is always top if the list, and while the pills are helping, she could use a little more. So we started a cold laser therapy.
I think she likes the safety goggles.

I like that after the first treatment I can already tell a difference.

After the vet, which took two hours, I attached the ribbon to this bonnet I knit two years ago, packaged up Kyle's Seahawk Socks, grabbed the casserole, hopped back in my wagon and was off to wander the back roads of Snohomish.

Race season is right around the corner and I needed to not only deliver knit goods I had race parts to deliver.

Then there was my teammate from the 3Day's baby shower! Yay!! I promise your blanket will be done before BBKII arrives!

THEN....

We topped the night with a hockey game!

Sunday was all about the Seahawks and as you can see we broke out the champagne and crystal to toast the Seahawks first SuperBowl win!!

Isn't LOL adorable in her bonnet?
K loved his socks, they were slippery and he made quick work sliding all over the hallway I'm told!

More details about the bonnet and socks tomorrow! I'm exhausted just thinking about Saturday all over again!

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

The countdown...

The Elbow has taken things a little to far. After three cortisone shots, icing, and squeezing exercises, it's just not behaving... Tuesday I went into the MRI tube do the Doc H. Could get a good look at what's going on...wear and tear is what's going on and it's only getting worse.. I can keep getting shots of cortisone but eventually they'll stop being as effective. Surgery will be the best option. That's right. SURGERY Wanna know the worst part? Recovery can take up to five months Five Months 5 FIVE months of no knitting... . . . I'll give you a second to get up off the floor... . . . You read that again didn't you? . . . my friend MzKimba has graciously offered to take care of my stash. However I think I'll just pack it all up and store it somewhere safe till I get the all clear from Doc H. Now all this being said, I have projects that need to be completed, so I'm going to try and schedule the surgery for som
