And it's not really mindless, because it's sort of relaxing if you don't have to give it your 100% attention, which sounds like the best sort of creativity at this time. If you get really bored, you could just try a simple 2 or 4 row pattern.<br />Hope things are improving, albeit slowly.<br />RosA # 39RosAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15299065039358571096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708807491363992142.post-35995173601433076922015-06-24T21:28:11.700+01:002015-06-24T21:28:11.700+01:00Hi Shoshi sweetie, you are doing the right thing i...Hi Shoshi sweetie, you are doing the right thing in keeping well occupied.

I'm trying to catch up on your blogs and reading one at a time.<br />I'm sorry you are feeling so rough but it was to be expected and you were prepared with scarf in hand. lol. The scarf looks great by the way. I have some circular needles which might be long enough and I might do some brainless knitting too.<br />I love your little (abused) angels. Poor things. But they are not looking bad at all. Although they lack their wings. Give them wings and they will look even better.<br />I hope round 3 won't be so bad.,<br />LiscaLiscahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055538730629891703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708807491363992142.post-55574697873469956262015-06-24T17:48:34.346+01:002015-06-24T17:48:34.346+01:00You had me laughing over the abuses of your little...You had me laughing over the abuses of your little angel.

I am sorry to hear ...Hello, my dear friend Shoshi! I am sorry to hear how badly your second round of chemo made you feel, and pray that your body will be more acclimated to it by the third one. However, I am touched by how you are using your creative talents to do something for others in the midst of it all. You are truly an inspiration to me as to what a true Christian should be like. I went back and found the lovely satchels and intricate gift boxes for them that you made for your fellow chemo-ites. I also LOVE the latest gift projects you are working on. The colorful scarfs remind me of the story of Joseph's coat of many colors, and the posable angels are looking simply precious. May the Lord continue to give you the strength, courage and wisdom to undertake your upcoming treatments, so that your body is completely healed. Thank you for sharing your journey.Arnoldo L.
