No title. I don’t have what it takes to think of one.
It’s been a long week. My dad died a week ago. I’m an only child, and so the arrangements and details have fallen to me. I was cluelss prior to this, because I had no idea it could possibly be this painful.
But it is.
Life moves on and I’m trying to as well…along with trying to muddle my way through his affairs, get the memorial service planned…Hard stuff.
I will be alone and have some knitting time tonight for the first time in a long while. Despite many plans not to prior to all this – I think I will start something new. I may even purchase yarn for it.
I ruined the first pair of socks I ever finished. I really, REALLY thought they were superwash. Um, guess not. I cried. I will henceforth now and forever hand wash handknit socks. Period.
There you have it, my life in a nutshell.

I’m so sorry. I empathize totally. You’ll get through it – it just takes time.
