Babies!!!!

Here are my new babies!

Miss Pearl (a frosty pearl French Angora) and her sister - who still needs a name! (blue tort French Angora) They are 9 weeks old and have very sweet temperaments.

Rebelling

Lately it seems that my body is betraying me - I have no control over it's crazy decline. So, one of the few things I feel I have control over is my hair. Thus black and pink hair. Any yes, it does make me feel better. I wish that the photo showed the pink better - but believe me, it's bright pink highlights. :)

For those who don't know, I've been searching for answers to many physical ailments this last year. As it stands I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, CFS, Menieres, Reynauds, and hypothyroid (possible Hashimoto's). We are still looking into auto-immune disorders.

Dealing with the extreme exhaustion has been a bitch, but the daily pain is really wearing me down. Enough whining! Back to knitting...

So Proud

Finding the words to describe how I feel after such an amazing day yesterday is proving to be quite hard. It has been so long since I've felt proud to be an American. I've felt embarrassed, hopeless, and at times fearful these last 8 years.

Today I am PROUD to be an American. Proud.

With an amazing feeling of peace and hope.

Thank you Mr. President.
