Feeling Better

I want to start this particular post by thanking all of you who left comments on my last post. I'm doing lots better now. I've been reading a couple of good books about how to talk to yourself in the positive instead of the negative and it really helps my attitude. I still have lots to learn, but I'm on the right track.

On a lighter note, here is the "so far so good" shot of my sock in progress. I'll be turning the heel next, when I actually pick it up again. Can't read and knit at the same time very well, and I have 2 books to read, well 1 and 2/3's since I've read at least 1/3 of the first book.

I really thought I had more to say, but I guess I didn't! Hmmm.... I must be processing what I've read so far or something. OH well, maybe it'll come to me later.

OH yeah, I found the other balls of this yarn. Where? In the place I keep my sock yarn, duh, I just didn't think it'd be on the bottom for some reason. I probably put it down there to hide it from myself so I wouldn't think about how many times I tried to knit with it on my cruise. Wow just "voicing" and I started clenching my teeth, I think I have some tension about that, ya think? dang -- cleansing breath and let it go. I think I'll go and figure that one out! ttyl!

I've got to have a talk with my mom about being more positive, really trying to be positive is a good way to feel better. A magazine, close to your and my heart, one that currently comes out monthly, recommends each day, at the end of the day writing down 3 positive things about that day or your life in general. I think thats a great idea. I know I feel better if I try to find the positive things both about myself and about life and others instead of always thinking of the negative, because thinking of the negative is sure a whole lot easier. So we have to fight the path of least resistence and focus on the positive!

Good job on finding the rest of the yarn. My mum (ever helpful) always says you find what you're looking for in the last place you look. Yeah, thanks!
I hope this socks fits better than the last one.
