This day has never been an unlucky day for me. I don't believe in superstitions, palm readings, tarot, horoscopes, finding my aura, etc. If you don't believe, those things can't hurt you. I believe God is in control and that's that.
I had a wonderful day on Wed, the 11th, Veteran's Day. I undertook a large (for me) project and I felt so proud of myself. I suppose it should have taken only a couple of hours, but I stretched it out all day. That's OK. At least I got done. I have big plans for tomorrow, too.
I was diagnosed with anemia. I have virtually no iron stores. I tried taking 325 mg FE(iron) twice a day, but it tore up my gut. I had to stop taking it because it wasn't worth the pain. I went to my rheumotolost, Dr KK and it was decided I'd take a different kind of FE pill. I still haven't done it, but I am taking one of the ones I have once a day. I'm starting to get back a little bit of energy so I suppose the FE is helping. I will have a blood test in a few weeks to see if I'm making any improvement.
Oh......about knitting. I'm making socks for all my grandchildren. I started my granddaughter's 2nd sock and I probably cast on about 10 times trying to line up the stripes. I usually get it first try, but I'm making a much smaller sock than I'm used to and making up the pattern as I go. I've finally got about an inch or so on it, but it won't take me long to finish. I also started a sock for myself called "My Vampire Boyfriend". Of course, it's in red...what else? It's a difficult pattern so it's slow-going for me. That's OK. The kids are more important. One of my friends at work asked me to make a pair of socks for her for her retirement. She's only in her 40's! I was thrilled she asked. After Christmas I will design a pair for her.
