Game. Set. Match.
That's about how long it took. Literally.
In case you don't recognize it, that's the Sunshine Sock. It goes everywhere, but never gets finished. This is kind of a cheat. We were in a Very Important Person's seats (don't worry, we were allowed) and G thought it might not be good form to knit while in those seats (ala Elaine and her Baltimore Orioles Cap.) So I took out the sock for the obligatory picture, and I did knit one row (note - not even a WHOLE round) for posterity's sake.
The best part of the evening? Well, I had a few hours where I was peaceful. Dare I say it? I had some fun. Of course, today I'm back to doubting it will ever come again, but it was there. And a Big Mac never tasted so good.
I think I may have scared some of you yesterday. Rest assured, my family and friends (which includes my dentist, my dry cleaner, the woman on the #7 train yesterday) all know my situation and are on top of it. I'm OKAY. Really I am. I may feel like utter crap, but I'm OKAY. And one day, hopefully really really soon, this will be a distant memory. I still remember the Summer of 2000. It wasn't pretty, but here I am five years later and this summer wasn't half as bad as that one. So, it's all okay. Thanks for caring.

One of my needlepoint students is a tennis ump. Jane Smith...not that I think you'll know her. Next time maybe you can show Sunshine on your shoulder;-)

Great great sock, I mean tennis shots. My son will be so impressed. Who would think we'd connect with my knitting nuttiness and his love of tennis. ??????????? Sometimes its a stretch when he's 14 and I'm 45, to find some commonality. YOU DID IT FOR ME! Thanks.
You are a brave woman to post and publicize your medical issues. I share the boat with the you. It is good to be reminded I am not alone. Thanks
