I am way behind and I just can't catch up because brainz, so sorry, I read your comments, I <3 them, they mean a lot and keep me sane, I just can't reply right now. Or maybe I can reply after right now. There's just too much of a backlog to catch up.
  1. My guild's craft show went well despite the snow and ice! I sold 10 things so far (there's still an hour to spare) out of 32 that I put in, which I consider a success.
  2. The things that did sell are the things I liked the most; the things I put my heart into. Not the things I made because I thought they would sell, or because someone told me they would sell. So, lesson learned: follow your bliss.
  3. I ate solid food again today! So far, so good. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.
  4. I am even contemplating knitting again. So far I have not had energy to knit since Rogue died, which is the opposite of helpful in regards to one's coping mechanisms.
  5. I went to the yarn store and got some intriguing yarn. Now to find a pattern. (I know, I do it backwards, but it works for me.)
  6. Am hoping to get unsold stuff back from the craft show soon so that I can present it, either to people I know or to people who are cold who can't get warm things. (I like to think of them winging their knitted way throughout the world <3).
  7. Despite being unable to go to my guild's craft show (which is large and further from my house), I did go to [personal profile] jelazakazone 's craft show (smaller and more local). Her quilts are exquisite and my mom got some really awesome presents for people from the show.
  8. Just because people are posting these: I do have a Permanent Wishlist because hey, it's nice to want things. No obligations at all but, you know, it's there if you feel like looking.
  9. I saw a cute kitty today! <3
  10. Lovely snuggles and comfort from my partner when I had a grieving moment hour for Rogue in the middle of the night.

Comment worry on my part should be set to "0" if it wasn't already! :)

Congratulations on the fact that nearly 1/3 of what you brought to the guild craft show sold! That's really impressive!

I hope you find the perfect pattern to go with the intriguing yarn, that you continue to feel up for knitting, and that you keep healing up from the food poisoning.

What is this "reply to comments" idea? Seriously, definitely don't do it on my account. Though I'd love to gchat again soon!

Ooooh. A Permanent Wishlist. Now to brainstorm...

I do it backwards, too! Mostly because there's a much wider range of patterns available to me than there is lovely yarn.

Yay for comment amnesty and eating solid food! And wow, a successful craft show - that's so great. I totally get what you mean about following your bliss, creatively. That definitely gets the best results.
