Darlene - NYCO

Hi Shelagh,

Oh, that's too bad that you have to frog the shawl. Better luck next time when you do the same pattern.

How's the knee feeling?

Hugs,

Nora

The knee is okay... a little stiff and every once in a while it gives a little jolt - just so I don't get too smart.

A knitting friend who was a nurse told me something today I didn't know before - when they do an arthroscopy, there is a minimum of 3 tiny incisions on the knee (I had 4), but I didn't know how it worked. They put the little camera through one, then the surgeon has the other 2 for instruments for each hand. Someone else works the camera. Now I'm wishing I'd paid the $50 and got a DVD of the whole thing (laugh).

I think it's going to take a while before I won't notice it anymore.

LOL

For sure, Shelagh. I hope that you are back to yourself soon. Meanwhile, keep knitting - and reading!

Higs, Katherine

I understand about not getting the NYCO finished this year. Too bad that you have to frog it.

I hven't looked at my project since very early in January when I actually worked on it for a few days. Now it's under a pile of yarn that I will be working on first.

I'm glad you're better, Shelagh! Telling about the camera and DVD, I remembered when DH had a gastroscopy. My son knew this.

A while later, a plummer used a camera to find out where our sewer pipe was blocked. We got a video (with DH's name on it) which was really interresting! LOL!

When my son came home from his studies, I told him: this is very interesting look at this video! He answered shortly, but determined : NO!!

-But it is very ineresting, I insisted. But then I understood he had allready seen it:

-If YOU think that *I* think it's interesting to see inside dad's digestion system, I can TELL YOU I thought it was AWFUL!!
