It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. September 8, 2013. Today is not that day. I had no idea the extent of my injury. All I knew is that my knee was the size of a melon and I needed my friends’ help to limp across the room. Before that moment I’m not sure I realized how important running had become to me. Fast forward through diagnosis, surgery and physical therapy. I became determined. I was not yet done with running. Little knitting →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Geek Girls Book Club.

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. October 24, 2012. Are you kidding me? I met with the orthopedic surgeon, or actually I met with a doctor in the same office, but not the one I was referred to. At the time no one explained this switch to me but I went with it. I didn’t really care for his disinterested approach to my situation so I scheduled another appointment, this time specifically with the doctor I was referred to. 8230;and DONE. →.

Stepping Back | Knitiot
https://justknitiot.wordpress.com/2015/01/12/stepping-back
It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. January 12, 2015. More than once in the last few years, I have tearfully prayed to have the opportunity to jump forward or go back in time. To do things over again, make new decisions, see things a new way, anywhere but NOW. Three months ago I lost my job. It was job, not a passion, but a job nonetheless. I can’t say that I’ve missed a single day of it but still… a job. It was a devastating shock. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Moving Right Along… | Knitiot

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. March 27, 2013. Moving Right Along…. It has been roughly 20 weeks since my ACL reconstruction surgery in November. According to my physical therapy protocol, between weeks 18 and 22 I should be working on:. Increasing pace and distance of running as desired. Beginning sprints at 3/4 speed. Agility drills (carioca, figures 8’s, progressing as tolerated). Best of all….ROAD TRIP! Catching Up →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Enter...

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. January 1, 2013. Well, I did it. Three hundred and sixty-six days. Three hundred and sixty-seven pictures. Yes, that’s one extra picture if you’re keeping score. I missed a day early on but there were two days for which I couldn’t pick just one image. A lot of the pictures are junk to fill the day but there are some pleasant surprises mixed in. And unexpected hospital trips (ugh). I’d like to hope that I am developing a better eye for photogra...

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. September 8, 2013. Grab a cuppa and I’ll try to bring you up to date since my last post. A little more than a month ago, my cousin birthed an adorable baby boy. Yay, another cuddly person to knit for. I look forward to watching him and his awesome parents grow together and learn from each other. Welcome to the family, little James. Two months ago, the tomato plant I bought from a local farmer’s market started to actually grow tomatoes! Four months a...

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. March 22, 2014. Finding out there is a new baby to knit for is exciting. Little things are adorable and quick and perfect for trying new techniques without an overwhelming commitment, and did I mention adorable. The only issue I have is that they become obsolete so quickly… the knitwear, not the baby. Maybe that’s why I knit a sweater to fit a one year old for my 5 month old baby cousin for Christmas.

It's not always about knitting, but maybe it should be. October 12, 2012. I had an MRI on Monday. I got my results Wednesday. I tore my ACL. Enter Stage 2 – Anger. I’m angry. I’m screaming, crying, irrationally angry. I don’t want more downtime. I don’t want to start therapy over again. I don’t want to miss group runs with my friends. I don’t want this to be happening anymore. I don’t want it to have ever happened. I want to yell at someone or something. I want them to fix it. Now! Make it go away! Back ...
