walk with me wednesday.. ahead and behind

P1040489

The past few weeks have been hard.  Gut wrenching, yet full of love.  I am so very grateful to have friends that are open and sharing.  To have friends that are family.  To have friends that kept me close in their most private moments.    I woke this morning thinking about this photograph.  I took it last month.  Ahead and behind.  Life and memories. 

and on the knitting front…
I am busy.  Yep, I have been knitting and dyeing and keeping my head on straight with the help of some of my favorite things… color and texture.  There are new colors going up in the Tashi and the Arequipa yarn pages at Ball and SkeinAnne, of Knitspot (all I needed was "Anne", right? ) has been busy with a new "little nothing" she calls "Gust".  I’ve been busy with colorways.   Here’s a teaser.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. When my brother passed away two years ago, his friends and family filled the church. You are right, it is warming to see when someone touches so many lives. Hope for you healing….

  2. Judy, I am sorry you have had a loss. I’m here if you need me.

  3. I am so sorry to hear you have lost someone.

  4. The networks in our lives keep us going, share the grief, hold the burden of loss together. Your picture IS a beautiful metaphor.

  5. I am sorry you are suffering. I hope it eases soon.
    Your colors are wonderful. Anne shared some of the Arequipa for me to test knit Gust, and I love it. (It would go faster if I could keep my toddler from petting it.)

  6. My thoughts are with you and yours. *hugs*

  7. I’m also not sure what happened, but whatever it was, I’m truly sorry. ๐Ÿ™

    I am so very sorry for your loss.

  9. …I’m sorry it has been a difficult time for you…but thankful that you have such good friends and family that are a comfort to each other. Keep them near to you and keep the memories in your heart.
    (ps…you are keeping busy with the right things …obviously! such colors!)

  10. So sorry to hear that you have had a loss, but you are right that things do move ahead. May healing come soon.

    Quite the photographic metaphor. I keep looking at it. So true. Life is short. Many hugs to you. I’m just a call away.

  12. I too am sorry for your life experience at this time. I don’t know any details, but your words and photographs are so eloquent. They speak volumes though their simplicity.

  13. I’m sorry you’re hurting :o(

  14. I think about you and wish I were there.

  15. I am finally getting caught up in blogland and your posts. I am so sorry you are dealing with something that is so obviously painful for you.
    Know this shoulder is always available to you….Hugs!
