I don’t know if there is a knitting gene in my body. So … on to somethin gfunny. THAT I can do.

An elderly couple find that they are being forgetful, so they decide to go to the doctor to see if there is something that can be done. The doctor examines each of them, and tells them both that for their age, they are in remarkably good health. But if they are having trouble remembering things, they should start writing things down. The couple agree that they can do that.

One evening the couple is watching tv, when the husband gets up. “Where are you going?”, asks his wife. “Out to the kitchen”, he replies.

“Oh, good,” she says. Bring me a dish of ice cream.”

“Okay,” he says, “a dish of ice cream.”

“Write it down!”

“I don’t need to write it down,” he retorts.

“But I want strawberries on it.”

“Okay,” he says, “a dish of ice cream with strawberries on it.”

“Write it down!”

“I don’t need to write it down”.

“But I want chocolate syrup on top of that”.

“Okay,” he says, “a dish of ice cream with strawberries and chocolate syrup.”

“Write it down!”

“I don’t need to write it down”. And he stomps out of the room.

Time passes, and a half hour later he comes back and hands her a plate of scrambled eggs.

“I told you to write it down! Where’s my buttered toast!”

Love the funny Don! Maybe I need to have my husband write down what he is goin to the kitchen for so I dont forget LOL 🙂
Cant wait to see the Shawl finished, hope you are able to figre out the edging!

Your renewed knitting enthusiasm is contagious all the way here on the East Coast. Enjoy!!!

I’m thrilled you’ve got your knitting back – just another step on your road back to good health!

And I really hope to meet Don some day – what a crack-up. The two of you in the same room must be hilarious.

If I man is ill, you know he’s getting better when he is no longer submissive, but acts like a crabby little boy.

You know a woman is well on the road to recovery when she starts turning out finished objects. Woo-hoo!

Congrats! I’m glad your in the knitting zone again.

That IS a better picture of the afghan! It looks more like a beautiful pieced quilt in this picture. 🙂

More that one project on the needles..now that bodes well. Cool. 🙂

My offer stands. 😉 Let me know.

I like the idea of baby step knitting your way up to “real” knitting. Only even your baby step knitting is already amazing!

I love the jokes Don tells. 🙂

Yay! Real Knitting! Yay!

Rah! Rah! Rah!

Oh yes, when in doubt, cast on another project. Well do I know this….

I hear you about the knitting! I’ve just added 3 projects to Ravelry / blog…

You’re feeling well, then! GOOD!

It’s wonderful that you are back at your knitting. I am in a little bit of a slump myself.
