"Whether we are poets or parents or teachers or artists or gardeners, we must start where we are and use what we have. In the process of creation and relationship, what seems mundane and trivial may show itself to be a holy, precious, part of a pattern." - Luci Shaw

I am knitting away in hopes that now I am this far, maybe I can finish in a month for Dave's birthday July 6th. I was originally thinking a sweater for Xmas but this may be a good goal. I need to keep motivated and finish. It is looking good. I am finished the front and half way throught the back, so then arms and neck.... we shall see if I can do it. Happy Knitting! It is a ggod thinkg to do as well while watching the Canucks, although I have made a few mistakes ...oops ..... the games have been so exciting. Go Canucks Go!

Remembering My Dad via Neil Diamond tribute
It is that time to remember ones I have loved and love. My dad died three years ago before, Dave and I were married. One of the things about my dad is that he loved Neil Diamond. As a little girl I remember listening to his eight track cassesttes in his car as we went for a long drive.My dad also loved to go on drives and we later joked about the drive by visits we had on trips with him as a family. I miss you dad and thank you for all the memories and the music in my life. Thought the version from Glee was interesting..... Music is healing to the soul and aids me in my creative journeys....
