THE BEGINNING OF THE POSTS!!

HI THERE,
I AM KNITTING_WIDDERSHINS!
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT WIDDERSHINS IS, IT IS AN OLD WORD MEANING TO GO COUNTERCLOCKWISE, OR OPPOSITE OF THE NORM.

I KNIT IN THE CONTINENTAL METHOD WHICH IS DIFFERENT THAN THE VAST MAJORITY OF AMERICANS, AND ALL KNITTERS WIND THEIR YARN COUNTERCLOCKWISE ON THE NEEDLES SO I THOUGHT, HEY YEAH...THAT'LL WORK!!

ANYWAY, I AM GLAD TO START THIS BLOG, AND IN THE VENERATE WORDS OF DOUGLAS ADAMS....THIS WILL INCLUDE, "LIFE THE UNIVERSE AND EVERYTHING!!!" TOO BAD THAT THERE IS NOT A FRIENDLY RED DON'T PANIC BUTTON FOR MOST OF LIFE!! I COULD SURE USE ONE!!!

I AM ALSO QUITE A BAD TWO FINGER HUNT AND PECKER TYPIST, SO NO, I AM NOT YELLING, I JUST LIKE ALL CAPS!! I MEAN COME-ON NOW I WENT TO NURSING SCHOOL, NOT SECRETARIAL SCHOOL!! YES AND LET ME TELL YOU WHEN WE HAD TO CHANGE TO COMPUTER CHARTING, QUITE A FEW OF US DID NOT KNOW HOW TO TYPE!! BESIDES IT IS MY BLOG, SO I'LL USE CAPS IF I WANT!!
