Knitting

Knitting has been a passion of mine for the last ten years, but I think I first got the itch to knit when I was watching shows like "Little House on the Prairie" and other old! It inspired me watching those ladies (and kids) just fly with those needles! I won't lie, when I first started to knit, I was frustrated to the point of throwing the needles away and said, "Enough!"

I have been watching the reruns of Little House, after hearing that Merlin Olsen died. He was one of my favorites, and was shocked to hear that he died of cancer. Its so unfair that the mesothelioma life expectancy is so short. I have read some articles on his saying that he and his wife are suing NBC and other companies for negligently exposing them to asbestos.

Cancer just sucks! My hubby just lost an uncle to cancer, which really effected his dad. He is slowly coming around, I just hope he doesn't have a relapse of the illness he had last year.
