Where does that phrase come from? Is it a British saying? Regardless of the origin, it describes my feelings about this week. Missing my friend, the girls back at school, more teeth trouble, going through the days in a kind of fog that has matched the grey weather we're having. I know I'll be back to normal soon, but for now, I'm just kind of trudging through the days. I must have started half a dozen posts that seemed pointless. Even this one is fairly incoherent I think.
But.
Knitting has helped. Making lots of little baby hats for gifting, reorganizing the yarn baskets and clearing out a few skeins was therapeutic.
Talking to my daughters has helped. My students' hugs and humor have helped.
By the way, Twist Collective's February Finish Fest sounds like a good idea, especially since I've already started finishing some long neglected projects. Hopefully the weather will be nice enough to take some photographs this weekend.

Yarn always helps. SOmetimes I just go into my yarn closet and smell the yarn when I am having a bad day...or week. Hope yours is looking up soon,

Yarn and knitting always seem to make things better. I hope you get things settled with your teeth. That could be the root of all of your problems--pun not intended, but there you go.
ReplyDeleteI've been pondering all of my WIPs, but newly cast on projects keep getting in my way. How does that happen?
