Porcelain Goddess

I'm sick. I've been up since around 4:00 paying homage to the porcelain goddess, and she's done NOTHING to help me. So much for religion.

THIS is why I shouldn't have come home to all those kid germs (and the multiple graduation ceremonies, and the trip into NYC, and my already compromised immune system due to my long teaching gig) I tried knitting to settle my stomach and take my mind off of whatever stomach flu thing this is, but I can't even finish a row.

More late. Hve to run.

Addendum

It's official - I'm here in SO for the weekend, chained to the bed or bathroom (don't get excited). I'm off to sleep. The kids are watching Zathura and they're FIGHTING over the ending, is that priceless, or what? Oh, f'heavens sake, kids, be quiet.

I am very, very sorry that I'm cancelling my gigs this weekend. If you were supposed to go to a class which I was to teach, email me and I'll send you a consolation pattern (your choice) off of my website. I am so sorry, really. I know how bereft I feel when something I'm looking forward to is cancelled, and I can commiserate. I feel very sad, too.

I don't think there is anything worse among the various common sicknesses than the stomach flu. You want to go to sleep and wake up when it's over. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Annie: I'm sorry to hear that you're sick. I work in NYC and it's a wonder we all haven't keeled over. I can peel the dirt off my face when I come home at night. And I know that Marietta will be disappointed not to spend time with you at Woolwinders. Take good care. tomato

Very sorry to hear you're ill; and sorry to miss your class at Woolwinder's. VERY happy for a free pattern! I think I'd like to take alook at the Mitred Jacket---you could email it to me at khmindeed@gmail.com.

Looking forward to the rescheduled class!

The porcelein bus is the only vehicle that we all can drive without a license. Yuck. Get better soon, and try to "enjoy" your enforced rest time.

Hmm- you tried knitting to settle your stomach? Did you have to swallow it whole or could you take small bites? (Tee hee) (Couldn't resist, since the mental picture was too funny!) Hope you feel better- there is nothing worse than sick when it is nice and warm outside.

Oh Annie, how rotten that must feel... I hope you get better real soon.

I'd like to ask (though you did tell me at Loop when I took your color class, which was fabulous btw...) Where can I find your bathing suit pattern? I'm really anxious to try it. Also, can it be true that you will be featured once again on Knitty Gritty this summer? (oh I hope I didn't spill the beans.)

Hi Annie,
Very sorry to hear that you were sick! I was so looking forward to the bead class ever since I suggested to Jacqui that you teach the class.
I hope you feel better real soon. Since you were so kind to offer us one of your patterns, I would love the ribbed yoke pullover. You can email me at suey11@verizon.net.

Hope to see you soon at Woolwinders!
Susan
