*another day*
i have decided not to spend the whole day working today
swampy has his eye appointment today regarding his constant headaches~i am hoping he just need his prescription changing and its nothing more serious.
i had to cancel my visit to my mum yesterday as we had to get swampy to the hospital so i will be wandering round to see her later~my sister *now know to the blogging world as spooky* has gone off to the new improved bf's place this weekend so mum will be home alone with her knitting
the knitting was a ploy by spooky and i to get mum occupied...she finally retired a few months back and S was reporting that mum just seemed to give up and do nothing but stay up late all night watching tv...that really did not sound great so we came up with a plan~an imagined knitting drive at S's workplace producing knitted blankets for charity.
well its worked a treat, although the blanket is now for S (we both have a thing for blankets dont ask!) but mum is busy knitting away and actually seems very mellow.
there is no other word for it, mum has always been quite a stressed, anxious kind of individul~actually that sounds like me~and anything, even the smallest thing out of the ordinary would set her off to extra stress or a bad mood.
now she has wool in her life she has so different and even talking about crochet...
maybe wool is the answer to the worlds ill's?

I'm glad that you've found something to occupy your mum and de-stress her as well. It's a big adjustment to make from working to retirement so you and spooky have done well - but what a sneaky pair -a knitting drive at work indeed! :):)
Hope Swampy is feeling a bit better and it all went well at the hospital.It's great that you've got your mum involved in charity knitting its so rewarding,I do it too and always have something on the go,if your mum runs short of wool let me know I have loads!
Love from Kathy and the girls
My knitting (and crocheting now and then) is what keeps me sane!!!
goo you found something to keep your mom some occupation. Hope everything is ok with Swampy!
