I feel like I have been

betrayed.  And I'm sure this feeling is all part of my PTSD.  But the facts are facts.  The knitting group I started about 3 years is about within an inch of its life.  When I first started it, it took months to take off, but I stuck with it.  thenwe had 12-13 every week!  I was so pleased.  But "people" got discouraged with the location for several good reasons and we agreed to move.  That move was the beginning of the downfall.  I heard via the grapevine that some people were offended and started their own group.  We were suddenly down to 4-5 people on a good day.  No one came to talk to me.....or ask questions...or anything.  Now they were suddenly gone.  So now the group rarely has more than 1-2 people there.  One person told me they were just done.....what did I go?  I don't know because no one talks.  They just shrink away.  I have no options of attending other groups because of my work.  Now people aren't even posting on Ravelry on the thread I started.  No wonder I feel abandoned.  OK....I give up.  If my personality or whatever is that bad, I guess I should "get it" and get on with my life.

I finally settled on a pattern and yarn for a baby sweater.  It's made of fingering and I think the baby will be born in June before I ever get this done.  I'm already taking a short break from it.  I will probably carry it with me everywhere so I can work on it when any chance comes around. 

My poor grandson....tangled with a baseball.

Brendyn, I hope this doesn't happen again!
