Do you believe in omens? On the way home from the doctor's this morning, Pink came on the radio singing that song about "Getting the Party Started." I cranked up the tune and relished in thoughts of the upcoming events ... ah, I needed that! (LOL)
While at the doctors' this morning, one lady sat next to me as I worked on another chemo hat. She said she was a knitter, and once I started the topic on the upcoming various events (the Conference, Stitches East, The Knit Out & Crochet Too...), she whipped out a note pad and started taking notes. She said she used to make hats too, but didn't know who to donate them to ... so I gave her some ideas.
Then another lady came out into the waiting room and smiled at me. She recognized me, but I didn't recognize her. She said, "Hey, aren't you the lady I see crocheting everywhere? Weren't you here the other day working on that hat?"
I smiled, and said "Yes, I think I am that lady, but no, this is another hat."
She said that "...[it] was a nice thing to be doing ... crocheting for those in need."
Then while I was in the examination room getting my therapy, the doctor inquired too about the hat. "Is that the same hat you were working on the other day," he asked.
"No," I replied. "I started this one the minute I got here and sat down in the waiting room.
"Oh," he said. "Then you must be fast." (it was either that, or admitting he was a little behind in seeing his patients as the hat was nearly finished - lol)
"Nope, I think my speed is about average ... about 50 stitches in three minutes time...no where near Lily Chin's World record," I replied.
"Man," he said, "you are into this, aren't you?"
"You have no idea," I exclaimed.
Oh! The dryer went off ... ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!!!
NH, here we come!!
