The dashboard is set up, the space is organized. All kinds of little empty boxes sit on the screen in front of me, waiting to be filled. I need to dig out some words; fill the text box, complete the sidebars....hopefully there will be followers in the blank empty space that sits there now.
I clear out some time in my day to WRITE THE BLOG. I go to the desk, all business. NOW I am going to write the blog! It's time to get going....gotta put something in that empty space.
And the computer just sits in front of me, blank page glowing softly.
Guess I'll start the blog tomorrow.

Why String?
I've been teaching people to knit for quite a while now. When faced with a couple of knitting needles and an intricate spiderweb of yarn, new knitters usually panic. The fear of dropping a stitch or losing the thread can turn your fingers to thumbs and cause them to freeze up. My mantra.....it's only string. No matter how confusing the mess of string and sticks may seem, it's only string. It has no power over you. What's the worst that can happen? You drop the stitch, have to start over, take the whole mess out.
So what? Start again, take it step by step, and eventually enlightenment will come.
It's the same with life. Our lives are strung out in intricate layers that overlap and can knot up if we're not careful. But you can always take a bit out, look for another way to get through the knot. Relax. Take your time. It's only string.

I love knitting... although I am still a beginner and can only knit squares and rectangles. ;)
