A welcome change

It's been 2 months now since my miscarriage and while some days are still bad - some days, the grief still flows so swiftly that I can't comprehend what's happened - other things are starting to return to normal.

-We took a trip to Switzerland to visit good friends.
-I'm picking up more hours at work. (Though I work mostly from home, so... hours from work?)
-I'm feeling able to knit baby things again. I'm more than a third of the way done with a sweater for my cousin's baby, who is due in July. Two months ago, it was painful to even think about knitting for a baby who wasn't mine.
-My creativity is starting to come back. I managed to design a pattern in this past month, though I think it still needs some tweaking. I'm considering cleaning up last year's NaNoWriMo, since I lost March (which is the editing month for those efforts) to my grief.
-Spinning is sounding fun again. And it's about time, my fiber stash has reached critical mass.

So with all of this returning to normal, maybe this blog should be something else, too. It's time to make this a place for me, not just for my grief.
