I can't remember what it is like. I was surgically altered (not my choice, the big C) almost 15 years ago. I can't blame my bad moods on anything. However, I do have something to blame for my dry shins. The Grief yarn is fabulous (completely ignoring what the name says about it - I am in serious Iraq overload/disgust/dismay/shame). As is the scarf. Nevermind what it says it wants to be; do you listen to everything your children say that want? I am excited about your Sport weight sock yarn. I am waiting for my colorway (I don't know what it is yet, just that I will know when I see it.) Sport weight socks are my new thing. Did you see my finished Strange Days socks? I posted a pic a day or two ago. Hugs, Sorry about the hormonal crash and burn. I can’t remember what it is like. I was surgically altered (not my choice, the big C) almost 15 years ago.

And wow, that yarn is beautiful!! Feel better soon, okay? Your cure sounds perfect, especially for a woman who’s spent her week lost in a sinus infection. And wow, that yarn is beautiful!!

At least you can feel comfort that, as far as being covered in puke goes, you picked the most popular night of the year to do it. New important PMS discovery: I always have a meltdown about five days before my period starts. It's like clockwork, it only lasts a few hours, and I can feel my chest start to tighten up as I prepare to have an out-of-body experience that involves me watching myself destroy my family with verbal shrapnel. Then it's over. I did some googling and found out that on day 23 of one's cycle, there is a huge progesterone crash, worse than any other day of the cycle. I now blame everything mean I've ever said or felt on inadequate progesterone. However, knowing and accepting one's PMS, and being able to overcome the onslaught, are two different things. Hope you are feeling better. 'Til next time. I’ve always hated New Year’s Eve (especially this year, when my friend’s 20yo daughter started wailing, as the ball dropped, “I feel soooo old!”).

I have been worried it was your health that was making you feel down. I still love the Cure - and Morrisey/ The Smith's - "Somebody": I want somebody to care for me passionately, with every thought and with every breath, someone who helps me see things, in a different light - all the things I detest, I will almost like. Well, I hope things go better - and the yarn was definitely worth the wait - beautiful. Take care of yourself. Holly I am glad you are back.
