I am still knitting fingerless
gloves/mitts for Christmas gifts and working on the garter stitch afghan (off
and on). I discovered that if I knit
Continental style it does not hurt my arm.
I have no problem with Continental when I knit, but when I purl it’s another
story. I keep practicing and am sure I
will get the knack eventually.
BTW:
an MRI shows a torn rotator cuff but I have chosen not to have
surgery. I’m going to try therapy and
exercise. We’ll see and I’ll keep you
posted!
The garden is flourishing but no
veggies! The tomato plants are huge and
the cucumber vine is growing all over the yard and storage shed, but no
tomatoes or cucumbers. The only thing
that is producing are the jalapeno plants and the herb garden. We have tons of jalapenos and have shared
them with the whole neighborhood and all of the family. I don’t understand it—if the herbs and
jalapenos produce why won’t the rest of the plants in the same garden?
Macy and Max have been telling me
that my blog posts are the only way they can get their activities out
there. They have been talking about
hiring someone to write a blog just about them but I think I have them talked
out of it with a promise to take lots of pictures and share their
shenanigans. The problem is, cute as
they are it is too hot for them to do anything energetic or half-way
interesting.
Max says, “It’s hot! Let me in!!”
Macy says, “Wait for me. And fix my ear!”
Next time—pictures of swap
goodies. Best. Swap. Ever!
Life is good!!

Welcome back, friend! I'm glad life is easing up a bit for you.
Those pups sure are cute... even hot with Macy's ear flipped the wrong way.
Hey, good to see a post from Comfort Zone!
I used to keep "toys" on my desk for a distract, too. Often, my students loved them as much as I did, and sometimes had to search for my favorites around the classroom.
I hope the therapy works so you can avoid surgery. Knitting should be part of that therapy.
Max and Macy are adorable - give them a scritch from me.
WELCOME Back Ive missed you !!!! Your fingerless gift pile is growing and its wonderful. We are both potato chip knitters!!!
THe pups have been sorely missed.
