Sorry for being so quiet...this summer was so busy with working, kids, babysitters...driving...making french fries...ahhh it will be good to get a break.Well kinda...I finished working 2 days ago but today is my only day to get it all together as tomorrow i go for more surgery.
Reconstruction.
I have been saying...they are going to be putting me back together. Am I nervous? I haven't had time to absorb it all...but a year from now I'll be happy it's over. Denial is a powerful defense mechanism isn't it?

I have been knitting...
and felting...this one was for my friend Gina...a tote in green and purple...i like the geometric pattern that I added to it...i've been finding much pleasure in the redundancy of knitting...it's been rhythmic and meditative...very healing...it's been forcing me to sit with the silence and manage the anxiety one stitch at a time. My mind races and I get distracted so easily. My memory isn't good...so this really helped me to focus on a task.
I've been listening to Christian radio daily and listening to Contemporary Christian music...my favorite is Fernando Ortega...these have helped me immensely! My personal relationship with Jesus is growing...which has given me such comfort this year.
This winter I will try to post more...but please don't forget that life happens...I'm just trying to stay afloat.
May your day be filled with peace, joy and the light of Christ.

Good luck with your surgery, I wish you well. I know you through Etsy (Etsy Mom Team). I added your shop to my favorites, but have not been on the site for a while. Recently, I went back and saw your announcement in the shop.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you are "putting your life back together," and I know that your talent and creativity will shine through and transform all your life experiences in new beautiful meaningful creations.
Best of luck to you.
