The American Red Cross Museum has made their knitting patterns available online.  These are the very patterns that were used in the knit for the troops movement.  Is there a vet in your life who would like a bit of knitted history?

Enough with the dutiful, responsible stuff. You’ve paid your dues. You’ve been diligent, trustworthy and reliable. Now it’s time to say something you’ve been holding back. Better prep the audience before you start talking, though. It’s only fair.

Some of you will read this and think wtf?  others will say, at long last ….

If I were to heed this advise, I would need to start another blog — an anonymous one.  The stories I could tell. 

There has been all kinds of crap happening around here lately.  People whose only agenda is to shit on the world.  Professional victims – they slay me.

Isn’t it nice though, when someone takes the argument to a new low?  I have been informed that there are people who are thinner than me, who have nicer legs and that my teeth are crooked!  Wow.  What does one say, how to respond?  How can I hope to recover from such barbs?  The shock almost killed me. 

Darling, you make it so easy to walk away. 

Thank you, thank you for that.
