Bio
Happy, mostly. Homebody. Knitter (addicted). Widowed. Enjoy being a woman, sister, mom, friend, neighbor. Retired--YAY! NOT a writer but love writing and especially reading the blogs here. I come here and read every day. But if I don't have anything of value to say, I usually just read and rate. The AMAZING RIC TRESSA did my banner! My avatar name--Yarn over--is a knitting term that means moving your yarn from the back of your work to the front. It makes a hole, as in lace. Unless you didn't mean to do it--then it leaves a hole that you have to go back and fix. Also, a yarn is a tale told well, like beside a camp fire. And I loves me a good story! So--knitting, reading, writing--it's all yarn-overs. Thanks for stopping by.......

Sister, can you spare a dime?

I just read Oryoki Bowl's and Ann Nichols' blogs--one about tolerance, the other about being careful how we perceive homeless people.  I agreed with both essays but decided to write my own today because my thoughts run too long for a comment thread.

 

Many years ago, I got… Read full post »
