Our friend the patient and her husband got their pie.
Our mutual friends came over and picked cherries to make their own, bringing a much-appreciated gift of chocolate.
And I awoke this morning with the startle of an intense realization that the reason I couldn’t make myself finish the row on that afghan yesterday and just. get. going. was because I’d started the sunflower where a tree was supposed to start soon and that would not do. You don’t pile up motifs in a corner like that. My fingers were waiting for my brain to catch on before I created any more work for them to have to undo.
And now the sunflower has been transplanted to where it belonged all along.
