Work

Most days I think I have the best job in the world. I work with breast cancer patients. I often get asked if I find my job depressing and the answer is no I find myself so amazed by the wonderful people I meet. However there are some days that my job just stinks and today was one of them. Someone I care about is going to leave this world sooner rather than later and mostly death is not a bad thing to me due to my beliefs but she should be health and happy and being driven nuts because of her kids not fighting for her life that she is not ready or willing to say good bye to. I think medicine is a wonderful thing I have been involved in the medical field in one form or other for 30 years. Today modern medicine is not enough and I wish it was!
I also feel very sad for the miners in WV and their families. My husbands family had been coal miners and we only barely understand the heart break and fear they must be going through. My thoughts are with all of them.

Easter Sunday

Today has been an awesome day. I could have been depressed that my kids are not home for Easter but instead of being down JR (hubby) and I decided to go hiking and have a picnic after church today. I fried some boneless chicken thighs, made a broccoli salad and a fruit type salad. Baked off some cookies.
We hiked the Ash cave rim trail not long but a bit more rustic. I was surprised that it was not as difficult as the last time I did it. I am trying to build up my stamina and strength to do the Grandma Gatewood walk in the Hocking Hills it is 12 miles. I am planning on having a back MRI again in the near future as it is bothering me a bit.
I am rising some biscuit of the sourdough variety for dinner just a snack really.
The drive up to hike is about an hour so I knit on my Hedera sock I am half way finished the cuff. Tonight I will be working on the toe of my Secret Garden sock.

Welcome to my world

My first dyslexic post. I am a compulsive knitter, love to cook and hike. If I had my way I would live up in the blue ridge mountains or at least the Hocking Hills. I would be outside hiking most days even though I am over weight and out of shape.
I am currently knitting Hedra Socks by CookieA those are me in the car riding socks and I am getting ready to start the The Secret Garden Sock from the Rockin Sock Club.
