The Knitting Olymics 2010




I did not earn gold.

I was going to knit a pair of child's sized socks for the daughter of my high school roommate who is working on baby #2. (The roommate is working on the baby. The socks were for the soon to be big sister) However the day of the opening ceremonies, before I could even cast on I found out that friend #1 was moving two states away, and had less than a week to completely sort down a 2 bedroom house into a 1 bedroom apartment and pack it in a U-Haul AND my mother is moving back home to live near my older foster sister because I refuse to play along with her bullying games anymore AND another friend has to start chemotherapy AND I finally got on the right meds. So while we got one friend moved, got mother's garage cleaned out, a hat finished and dealt with my first cycle in a year, I never did even start the socks.

I like to think I at least got bronze for surviving it all.
