Been just drifting lately after my bout of financial-collapse-inspired indignation. Â Now I am resigned.
Counter-intuitively, I tend to drown my sorrow in cheap luxuries when all the big ones are out of reach.
The knitting has been giving me a lot of satisfaction lately. Â It makes people happy when you spend the time to make them things. Â Knowing that you give someone something to wear and cherish is really just the icing. Â 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. Â Â It makes me feel happy to just handle the yarn and watch the project work up.Â
Oh, and sometimes I just like to run my hands through it and look at the colors. Â Just one of my minor indulgences, like hot bubble baths and ice cream. Â
Leave me my little luxuries and I will be just fine.
