I'm back!!!

Atleast for tonight. I have been in the hospital since March 16 with my hubby. This has not been a good visit. Thankfully I have my cell phone with unlimited talk, text and picture.....My friends and family have been keeping me occupied and amused. We are usually out of the hospital within 3-4 weeks, but this looks like it will be a long stay.

A very dear friend of mine has been a godsend through all of this. Bringing me things, calling me, keeping friends updated for me, having me over for coffee and teaching me to knit!!!!! I have always wanted to learn to knit and now I am :D I have made 2 knit washcloths, a childs size bath matt- it was an adult pattern but I used the wrong size needle LOL. And I have started and tore out 3 scarfs that I was going to design :P I finally got a pattern going and got stuck on exactly how to add a specific element to my pattern and my dear friend came to my rescue and helped; actually finsihed out the pattern for me!! :D It is now completely torn out and I will start over tonight, somewhere I messed up and when I tried to take it apart back to the mistake I had a total disaster :( I am ok with it though as I am learning and this is just one more learning experience.

Unfotunately I can not upload pics but I do have my digital camera with me so when I get home and settled I will slowly get pics posted here. I will do my best to get out on to one of the hospital patterns for a short time each evening, but don't hold me to it LOL
