Upset can’t work because of poor lighting
Well there was so much I would like to work on tonight, but I can’t because I have poor lighting in my house. My bedroom is the only room that I have very bright at night. My husband who goes to his meetings almost every night decided to stay home and relax in the bedroom with the no lights. Cannot do my embroidery because it is to small, cannot do my knitting because the yarn is to dark to see the stitches. I could read, but I want to do needle work. So I guess this week end I will go out and buy a lamp that I can use 150 watts.
I am making this lace scarf with a knit along, and I am having a terrible time with it. I have frogged it at least 6 times. I believe the needle I am using is to thick, so I have ordered a lace needle. Hope that helps if not, I am giving up. Thats not like me to give up. We will see.

I feel for you… My mom “inherited” a little newspaper clipping that my grandmother kept on her fridge. Now my mom has passed it on to me. The paper is old and brittle but I love it. It says:
—————————
“Here is a grandmother’s prayer for all occasions: Dear Lord, please help me always to know exactly how my grandchildren should be brought up – and keep it to myself.”
—————————
I don’t know the origin of this, but before I was a grandma, I didn’t appreciate it. Now that I am a grandma, I really try to live by it! lol
