I haven't written for a few weeks! I still struggle with the whole "tell-all" of my daily obstacles. But I am sure before you know it you'll be able to come up to me and just start chatting like old friends!!
Imagine a little child eating their first piece of candy. They look at you with their bright, wide eyes and says "Oh, just one more pllllease?" the parent just melts and gives them another.
I am at the point today just saying to God "Just a little while longer plllease?"
A little taste of my reality quickly approaching as the world around me shrinks in my view. I had to ask for the first time today for a large print menu when I couldn't read the new LED menu on the wall behind the counter. They didn't have one!!! So I just ordered a bunch of chicken nuggets and sandwiches......
My crochet is possible with my husband's eyes for assistance on where to position things in the right areas, like the nose in the center, things like that. And I love him for being my eyes so to speak, but how is that fair?
Isn't it enough that driving was taken from me so young?
Or not being able to see our beautiful night sky?
Or that playing catch with my kids is not possible?
Or even to go a day without some type of anxiety that I can't see where my kids are and they're right at your feet?
All I ask.... Just a little while longer please...will God give in? Until then I will soak in as much as I can into my memory to brighten the days of darkness.
I have decided recently to start publishing my notebook of patterns and hoping one day to have them converted to Braille or put on audio for the visually impaired. There is not a whole lot of patterns for them to choose from. I can't wait to get that process started!!
If you would like to see the patterns I have published and stay up to date on new ones please visit: http://www.craftsy.com/user/1013830/pattern-store
I do things a little different. I do not gauge, I cannot sit there and tediously count my stitches in however many inches. I cannot count how many times in the past making swatches I would get interrupted and would have to frog the whole thing!!! I use a lot of measuring and math! That's right I said math. Who knew you'd need it in crocheting?!!!!! So I provide measurements for circumference and height of the hat. Everything else in my mind is just frosting, who cares of its 1/10th of an inch smaller than mine? It will look great and you know what? YOU made it!!! As my husband would sau, those small differences makes it yours and unique. Although as I have sometimes given him the stink-eye at times when I want it EXACTLY like my inspiration (like recently Hermey the dentist) I have to agree with him.
So keep an eye out, even though I was kicked down in the dumps today, rest assured I will be back hookin away tomorrow! Winter is approaching quickly so I will be creating a lot to share!!!
Who wants to play a game?
