Grace and tender mercies Thursday

I wasn't going to post at all today for Thankful Thursday but I just got done with three days of disheartening knitting angst because I just cannot read a simple knitting pattern anymore!  After struggling with it for yet another hour this morning, the light bulb finally came on. (The sun came out, the birds started singing, and a rainbow appeared as the Upstairs Choir sang Hallelujah!!!)

 I'd been reading a K2 psso as if it were a K2Tog/psso.   Please, don't ask how it could happen.  I just don't know.  I could blame major surgery from a year and a half ago, right?  Lol

Anyway, what I'm thankful for is the True Grit that Mother passed on to her kids, including me, to stick with a problem and get it solved, and never to give up Hope.  This is just another tiny way that Mother's influence in  the lives of her children is manifest.  I'm thankful she was my early guide to serenity.

Oh yes, I am thankful that the tube in my tear duct stayed put so far and seems to be working. yay Doctor Em!

So, now, I'm going to spend the day happily knitting away (in the pattern) on the second BonBon mitt.  It's at Ravelry as a free PDF if you would like to see it.  It's very pretty.
