oh boy.

Well, it's been another wacky couple of weeks here, I spent most of the week of the 12-18th in the hospital, it looks like everything is okay now, but - and mind you this is a good thing - my doctor is being very careful and conservative. I'm home now, but on bed rest, eesh. No driving, not much walking around, I am allowed to shower, thank goodness, but I'm pretty much on house arrest. Really hard for me on so many levels, but I'm trying to zen to the whole thing. One of the things that has always been very hard for me has been to allow other people to do things for me. Maybe this is my lesson? I don't really have a choice, and as one of my dear friends pointed out to me, receiving graciously is a different form of giving. Maybe, as well, I need to learn how to ask for and accept help now, because when the babes are born, I'm really going to need it...

So in the meantime I'm knitting - I have to keep my hands busy. I've already made gifts for all the other babies that have been born recently, so now I'm knitting toys. Monkeys for my monkeys! I'll post pictures when they're done. Very cute.

awol.

Okay, so I've been missing for a terrible long time - but not without two very good reasons. I am actually tremendously pregnant - with twins, no less - and so have been a little... what is the word?

Boy, am I tired.
