It seems that every couple of years God finds a way to slow me down for an extended period of time.  In 2007 I had rotator cuff surgery and now (tomorrow morning, actually) I’m having a complete knee replacement done on my right knee.  I realize I should be thinking about pain management and the physical therapy that will follow.  Instead, my mind is buzzing with books I’ve been longing to read and which knitting projects to take to the hospital with me.  Oh, and my cell phone, too, so I can catch up with friends and family.  Actually, I’m looking forward to this.  I’ll report back and let you know how everything went.
