Rip-O-Rama


It's been a week of backwards knitting. Sometimes you just need to have projects go away and get on with the new. First we had the sweater that was almost finished, but the yarn was unraveling, then the shawl where I absolutely could not find my place. I may just rip out a few more things while I'm at it.

I'll need some easy projects for the near future anyway, as Jack goes in next week for his hip resurface. It's pretty close to getting a new hip, all the same recovery, a lovely 12 inch incision, and all the same physical therapy afterward. Guess I'll be playing nurse for a bit. It will be so good to not see Jack in pain. We were on a run in June and he just said he had to stop as his hip was really hurting. Turns out his joint was almost bone to bone. I was glad when the doctor said it wasn't caused by running since we both used to run marathons. It was great that they squeezed his surgery in so he can get healed up and back to his normal active life....just no more running for him.
