Hello! That was some Christmas break!! To be honest, I think I got a bit depressed after Christmas. It was so hard and saddening to see the condition of my Grandma. She has dementia (I guess, we seem to get a different diagnosis with every doctor). She just sits in her chair and cries for my uncle if he is out of sight (aka, making Christmas dinner). It’s so sad because my Grandma really isn’t there any more. The only good thing is she remembered Ella, I was so afraid she wouldn’t. I know that pain from when I was Ella’s age. My Grandma’s cousin, Marie, (like a great aunt) suddenly forgot everything, it was the early 80’s so we never had a reason. She forgot me completely. She called Belinda her ‘little friend’, we figured she remember her a little because Belinda had Marie for her middle name. Grandma also remembers my Mom. Mom calls every Friday and Grandma looks forward to her calls.
I want to thank Elizabeth for checking up on me and encouraging me to come back. Some times it feels like I haven’t anything interesting to say.
Hmm, I just checked my Ravelry list and you can tell I’ve not been my self lately. I haven’t finished any projects since the new year. Now that large gatherings have been cancelled for the rest of March, I’ll have to get back to my knitting.
Hope everyone is doing well and keeping safe (and calm). Talk to you soon!
Welcome back! Watching people age and forget is tough. It hurts and we are helpless to stop it. Sometimes I miss the old days so much, when people were like we remember them. I am very happy to see you back. 🙂

Happy you are back. You know we are here for you, to listen, help, share .. you are loved.
