an update

It was so nice to hear from everyone!  I was astonished that anyone was still checking in since it had been soooo long since I'd posted anything.  The little yarn shop has been open for a few months now and I've met many very nice people but...  in mid November I became  quite ill  - an unusual pain throughout my body, fever; my feet hurt so much that I could do little more than hobble until finally getting everything moving again. The most recent diagnosis is rheumatoid arthritis.  It's been a little less aggressive for the last two weeks but it's really taken away my ability to work at my usual pace ... and it's a struggle to maintain much enthusiasum for my little shop.  I'm torn as to what to do.  I could try to sell the shop, or liquidate the inventory, or try to see it through a little longer in hope of a change.   You were so nice to support my so during my decision to open the store  here are a few photos of  the main room in the shop.  There are two additional small rooms -  one with baby patterns yarns and all  needles and tools and the second room with a very good selection of Brown  Sheep colours,  adult patterns, novelty yarns  and misc.  fibers.

I am so sorry to hear you have been sick and in pain. I was hoping you had just been very busy. I hope this will all go away very soon. Your shop looks wonderful. Clarice

Hello to you.

Dear Mrs. Staggs suggested we come over, and of course I came. I'm new to this Blogger world and had not known you before.

I'm very sorry for your illness, and hope it will go into remission. All good wishes to you.

I just visited your blog and although I knew you were ill from late last year (I thought from the spider bite), I had no idea that the ultimate diagnosis was RA. I am sorry to hear that is the case. Is there anything I can do to help? I have people asking if I have had any news all the time.
