Wednesday Wrap-Up

My blog webshot showed up on Ravelry. I have been waiting and checking, and boy was I excited to see it. Not sure why except maybe I feel like I am flying with the big girls now!

I got an email from Ebay notifying me something on my watch list was short timing. ‘Hmmm’, I thought to myself. ‘I don’t believe I have put anything on my watch list recently. Perhaps I better check.’ Imagine my surprise to find a Harley Davidson Sportster there! Wonderful Guy has been shopping…

I enjoyed lunch on Monday with a woman I lived across the hall from our first year in college, many, many years ago. We have exchanged holiday cards, and visited a bit every few years. I had such a pleasant time, in spite of the fact I am fighting a terrible cold. Really remarkable how people resurface at different times in our lives. We have both lost our mothers in the last couple of years. It's a real, but very different, bond to share.

I caucused last night, and sat next to a woman who remarked, while we were waiting (and waiting, and waiting....) for it all to start, “I should have brought my knitting.” What!? Nothing else would have got me talking to a stranger. She is new to our neighborhood, just started knitting. Spins, too, and has her own wheels (yes, plural!). And we share the same name. Guess its fate. We exchanged numbers. She was excited to think she had found someone to knit and spin with close by.

Not bad at all for a Wednesday.
