"Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them." – Albert Einstein

Been just drifting lately after my bout of financial-collapse-inspired indignation.  Now I am resigned.

Counter-intuitively, I tend to drown my sorrow in cheap luxuries when all the big ones are out of reach.

Pretty Yarn.

The knitting has been giving me a lot of satisfaction lately.  It makes people happy when you spend the time to make them things.  Knowing that you give someone something to wear and cherish is really just the icing.  I complain about the Jayne hats, but honestly, I wouldn’t dream of charging for them and it makes me happy that I can do something people want.   It makes me feel happy to just handle the yarn and watch the project work up. 

Oh, and sometimes I just like to run my hands through it and look at the colors.  Just one of my minor indulgences, like hot bubble baths and ice cream.  

Leave me my little luxuries and I will be just fine.
