106th post

I realized the other day that marking anniversaries of being part of blogland is part of being part of the blogging nation. (Ok, I hope you can figure out that sentence!!) I realized this after my 100th post which is why I am now marking my 106th post!!
Yee Haw!!

I actually do find it unbelievable that I have kept it up this l0ng! And I don't seem to be slowing down much. Well a little..I used to post every day and I was going to try and post every day this November. But you've all read about the emotional upheaval in my life these past few weeks.
I am progressing in my healing quite well. The doctor and the counsellor that I have been talking to seem to agree that I am not going off the deep end and my stress was (is) situational. Otherwise I'd be going bonkers in other parts of my life. I am actually very calm and happy in the rest of my life.
I have started keeping a daily handwritten journal and that is helping more than I thought it would. I have been having so many dreams that it is good to write them down soon after I get up. Oh, but I have been working out alot of things in my sleep! For the first time though I am really listening to them and trying to understand what my inner self really needs. I keep coming back to creativity...I need to be able to express myself creatively.

Isn't this an amazing picture?

I have been knitting. I got some more Patons Classic and knit and felted a bag. I finished some fingerless gloves for my DH. I completed another felted purse. I also started and ripped many little projects just because of lack of concentration. Running through my mind is a piece inspired by Norval Morrisseau.

I'll post some pictures soon my friends!

Wow, this is a great picture. I love it and I wish I could take better pics as well. Now you've got me curious, what you'll come up with, withN.M.'s inspiration. Very interesting.

Great photo!

And great to hear you sounding good. That's half the battle, to try to keep finding the good bits, and then concentrate on them.

What a surprise that knitting is helping! As Captain Renault says in Casablanca, "I'm shocked, hocked to discover that gambling is going on in here!"

(So do we slip you the illicit yarn now, dearie?)

(grin)

I'm so glad to hear that things are going so much better for you - you're definitely on the right path! And the idea of a handwritten journal along with the blog is a great one! I absolutely adore the picture you shared, it's so artistic and beautiful!

Congratulations on passing the 100 mark!

I'm so glad to hear that you are making progress with your upheaval. That was one bad situation and I believe your doctor and counselor. You are a very creative person, so I am sure your path lays in that direction.

I'm looking forward to seeing pics of your projects!

It's good to read this post - you sound much more "together", if you know what I mean. I'm glad you're healing.

I recently realized the same thing - I think I'm on post 104. :0) Maybe we should have a joint "Just Past 100" contest? :0)
