Read your last post too and oh how I can sympathise with so many of those issues!<br /><br />Regarding body changes - what I always say is that this is the autumn of life, and everything's migrating. In fact the girls are headed permanently south for the winter.<br /><br />We can grow cucumbers here, but they always taste bitter, so I've given up. Our tomatoes get spotted leaf mold every year, but they do bear a decent amount of fruit before they die a spotty death, so we just enjoy whatever we get. Don't give up on gardening.Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-48953898600962660722015-07-30T00:10:25.978-04:002015-07-30T00:10:25.978-04:00It's absolutely gorgeous, Mere, and I don'...It's absolutely gorgeous, Mere, and I don't think there's much chance of it being a table runner.

I just know she will feel your love surrounding her each time she wraps it around herself. I enjoyed reading your struggle with the yarn. It's kind of like life isn't it? We plod along, fixing little kinks along the way and hope that it will be beautiful and a gift for someone in the end.

The yarn is perfect because it has both subdued colors representing Sue's pain while in other places the shawl is filled with cheerful colors representing hope and strength to bring her out of the dark clouds she most surely is currently surrounded by. Amazing how color works miracles!
