For over 1o years, I have wanted to learn how to do a specific craft. Once I had everything all set up to learn, but I was admitted to the hospital. Then I had three little boys running around and didn’t seem to have enough time.

In the last few years, my perspective on life has changed. I used to be so task oriented that my day was scheduled to the minute. My desire is to enjoy life not just finish a list or task. There will always be more laundry, dinners, bills, coupons and lists.

Several months ago, I decided I would not give up on learning this craft and would find someone to help me. I sent out a twitter, received a response, and set a date. Then life happened again and my date was cancelled. I was determined not to give up so easily this time.

Last week, I finally met with my friend, Coni and began learning my new craft, knitting. I am currently knitting a black scarf. ROCK Church gives scarves and hats to those who ride our vans and are in need. I am excited that my first project will be a gift for someone else.
