Thoughts for the Day
Sometimes words just pour out of me and sometimes they don’t. This is one of the "don’t" times when I have to force myself to write.
People in close proximity and no matter how much I like them personally , absolutely exhaust me. I think that part of the tiredness I feel when I come home from a two-hour class is not only learning a new language, but being in a room interacting with strangers! When I was a teacher, the kids left at 3 pm. At 3:05, my brain shut down…
Apart from the fact that I love him, 
I also like Fred a lot and not the least because I am comfortable with him. Even after seven years, I enjoy doing things with him. We went out to eat this evening, same old place and same old food and I had a lovely time!
Today I got some beautiful hand spun and dyed yarn in the mail. I bought it from an OD-er and you can see what she makes here. I am probably going to make a long, dramatically tasselled scarf with it. I have to go out tomorrow and buy needles because I gave away all my knitting stuff on Freecycle! 
What happened was I burned myself out on hats and scarves for the shelter for the homeless. But I will not knit until the joints in my fingers are sore this time…I cannot believe we are so near a new year…

oh, that was wonderful that you knitted things for the homeless people. I wish I could knit, but Joe’s Ma tried showing me how to make granny squares once and I really never did get good at it! Like you and Fred, Joe and I love best, going to “same old places,” doing “same old things.” Being comfortable together and liking each other is so wonderful! :o) !! As for close proximity to people drivingone crazy….YES!!!! I have had a good time with company here but I am kinda glad they are heading home tomorrow!! *claps hands over mouth and whispers “don’t tell anyone I said so!”* hugs, Weesprite

ryn: yes, she was very up front about it. I didn’t have a problem with it as long as she paid the bills…. of course now I am rethinking that a little… From what she has told me this evening (before she was arrested) her “friend” is making up accusations. But thats only one side of the story. I would like to think she is telling the truth though.

You still have lots of winter left for that scarf!

I think I’m the same way around people. I just get exhausted in large groups. Not to mention stressed and confused. Can’t believe it’e the end of the year, either! Where does it go?

I think a lot of us are like that after being around people a lot all of the time. Especially when we have to make interaction with them. So no, I don’t see anything at all wrong with your statement. And I can’t wait to see what you turn the yarn into. I’ve found that wooden needles and hooks are much nicer to my aching joints.
