We just started a Prayer Shawl group at church. [Google: Prayer Shawl and be amazed]. I am really excited but I couldn't remember how to cast on. Finally, I stopped thinking, looking at the 8 million different books I had and let my hands take over. My hands remembered what my head could not bring to the forefront.
I thought about some of the new things that have been in my life lately. My bike has come back out, I am taking more pictures with Mom's camera, I went to the Prayer Shawl group, I am back in Choir and I back reading. I am very excited. I am not a creative person by any stretch. I always considered knitting structured creativity. I would starve if I had a good book.
It has taken a while to get back into the loudness of life. It is like knitting, I just needed to clear my head and let my self take over.

I have the most wonderful knitting book...Stitch and Bitch. You have to love it, at least for its perfect title. Now, when I say I "have" it, that just means that it is in one of the several hundred boxes that are packed and shoved in my garage waiting for "the day." When we actually move into the house. (See...that was a sentence fragment...I'm not REALLY a grammar nazi!)
