What a weekend. I have spent most of it in my bedroom, trying to convince my DH that I do still want to be married to him (he has a brain injury). This becomes emotionally draining and heartbreaking all at the same time. When he has these episodes, everything else takes a back seat, the kids, my knitting, my blogging....well, you get the idea.

So today, we spent the day working on my livingroom, ripping-up smelly old carpet and replacing it with a nice, clearenced-priced, oriental rug. Please don't ask what possessed me to buy a black rug...I think it had something to do with the idea that it might not show dirt....?

It is pretty, though, isn't it? It's amazing to me how a change like this makes us all feel hopeful. We can do something small to make our lives a little better.

There were a couple of things I wanted to share with you.....

Mason-Dixon had about 50 new versions (work with me, here) of the Ballband dishrag...very interesting color combinations, ladies, inspiring me to try a few color schemes of my own. :o)










Plus, Auntie Ann turned me on to this site and these. I must knit a pair for myself...maybe one for Mom, too. Maybe we can find a nice ball of Meillenweit for them.

But for now, it's just me, all of you, and Mr. Evan Williams.....Skoal.
