I worked six hours on Saturday, so I don’t feel like I had much of a weekend and made the weekend feel so weird. Saturday, my little sister M called me crying. Hearing her crying makes me feel like I need to cry along with her to make her feel better. I’m sure some people feel that way too when a sibling calls them crying. She had broken up with her boyfriend and needed to get out of her house. Because I had to work, Bryan was sweet enough to pick her up from the train for me. She was at house until yesterday afternoon. I am glad that we were able to be there for her. Based on previous experience, anyone who can help you cope with a breakup can make you feel so much better, even if they do nothing else but get your mind off of things. Bryan has been suffering from a pretty nasty cold, so him picking M up was greatly appreciated. If I sound like I’m repeating myself it’s partly because I might be and also I woke up with a headache this morning and the Excedrin has made me feel very odd. So Saturday evening, M, Bryan and I watched Intimate Strangers on DVD. M fell asleep with George curled up in her arms. It was so sweet how my kitties immediately realized that M wasn’t feeling well and they tried to give her lots of kitty loving. As if I needed another project to work on, I started a scarf out of some Manos yarn for M, it’s the same yarn that she bought for another scarf about a year ago. We modified that scarf into a strand scarf and I have a lot of yarn left over, so I started an elongated stitch scarf for her. It looks quite nice in the Manos. I also asked her about the Bias Lace Shrug in the new Interweave Knits (Spring 2005) and if she liked it. She loved it and I’m going to make it for her with the baby blue Rowan DK Soft that I’ve had for a long time. I was going to make Georgia with the yarn, but I wasn’t thrilled with the sweater enough to start it soon. If I still like it in 5 years I can make the sweater with another yarn. I think M will appreciate the shrug out of it more than I will having a sweater made out of it. It’s beautiful yarn, but I’ve had it for three years and haven’t touched it. I think the shrug will look great on her, too.
