For anyone who missed the late afternoon update yesterday, all is well – just lots and lots of tiny cysts leading to something that felt very, very wrong (and very unlike the cysts I’m more used to). Thank you all so much for the well wishes and healthy thoughts! You guys are the best. 🙂
Jane’s having a contest – tell her how many pairs of socks you could knit from the sock yarn in your stash and guess how many pairs she could knit from her stash. Leave her a comment with your guesses by July 11 at midnight, EDT, and you could win!
Eklectika is having a contest to celebrate her birthday – leave her a comment by 7/16, 3:22 am, and you could win a handmade spindle or lucet.
XRX, Inc., (which has a lot to answer for regarding the last several years of Knitters magazine) is having a sock design contest that runs until January 1, 2009. Grand prize is $6000.
“Hmm… smells suspicious…” -Chaos
“Nuh-uh. I’m not moving off this bib because I’m sure you have ulterior motives, Mom. I saw what you did to Mayhem.” -Chaos
yeah – I missed that update.
I’m so glad that you are okay… and that it isn’t anything more serious.
so scary.
((hugs))
:: big sigh of relief! ::
Clever Chaos! But you should see the wardrobe your mother has queued up for you on Ravelry 😉
I’m so happy to hear the good news!!!
Hooray!
I’m with Teyani!
I missed the update so I am VERY happy to hear you’ll be fine. I love you parenthesis behind XRX…grrl, do they!
Chaos you are a very smart kitty.
Oh, yay! I’m so happy. 😀
Run Chaos! Run!
I am a fan of good news. I think May should celebrate by wearing a bib.
That’s awesome!
Yay for Chris!!!!
Smart move, Big Kitty.
Glad to hear everything is cool!
Glad to hear everything is ok
Oh, good! Glad you’re okay.
chaos knows what time it is
Phew indeed!!
Oh, I’m SO GLAD that everything turned out OK!
Breathing a big sigh of relief over here – so glad everything turned out okay. 🙂
I’m so relieved that —I’ll — wear the bib!
(I know that makes no sense…)
Chris- That’s the worst kind of angst, but bear in mind that most of what we tend to worry about never happens. I’m glad you’re okay.
Bibs for all!
So glad to hear everything is OK! I’m sure the kitties were pleased, too. Now they won’t have to be all worried about where they’ll get their tuna.
Glad to hear you’re ok!
Yes Chaos, mom can’t make you wear it if you’re sitting in it!
Whew! Glad to hear things are okay.
I agree with you about the last few years of Knitters. They really need to stop smoking whatever it is they’re smoking over there and start publishing designs that don’t look like a giant monster ate the contents of a yarn shop and then threw up in the middle of a street.
). ). Boobs!
HAHAHAHA to what Marsha said about Knitters!
Nice preemptive move Chaos.
Glad to hear little cysts are the culprit and not an unconquerable issue.
Bloglines is not your friend today – they were blog-blocking you, or me?
I’m so glad all is relatively well. The cysts are liveable? Or do you need them removed? I’m hoping they are liveable. Chaos has lived the shame and is working to avoid it. He’s a smart boy;-)
Yay! for good test results!
Happy knitting-
ali
Oh what a relief! And I hope you are feeling better too!
Oh, good! I missed the update, too.
::phew::
Glad to hear everything’s ranging back to normal!
Very glad about the update news!
And that Chaos, eh? He’s a smart one.
Glad to hear all is well!
That Chaos is getting smart.
Yay! Glad to know it’s nothing more serious.
I’m so glad to hear everything is all right!
OMG! And here I thought I was the only one who thought Knitter’s Magazine had gone COMPLETELY around the bend. I am not renewing my subscription because of the bad dreams! Cysts is scary, but I know from experience, very different from the other. I am (knock wood) 8 years post-mastectomy. Wouldn’t wish it on anyone, ‘specially not a sweetie like you.
There’s nothing quite like waiting for important health news and then the relief when you find out all is well.
I thought I couldn’t be the only one who wondered what the heck happened to Knitters mag.
Smart move, Chaos!
i smell a bib!
i’m sure chaos looks just as good in pink as may does…hehhehheh
glad to hear you’re on the mend (or on the mend-ish)
sending big hugs and many scritches!
$6k would be lovely to win, yes?
I would like to see Chaos wear pink. : )
Whew! Glad it’s a good report. Waiting to find out is the hard part.
Glad you are OK! I missed the update as well.
I’m glad you’re ok! I’m also glad I didn’t come across this post before the update. I would have been very, very worried.
So glad you are ok. That bib would really set off Chaos’ fur rather nicely.
Glad you are well. I thought cysts weren’t supposed to hurt, or be bothersome, yet you are having problems, they caused problems when my cousin gave birth, and they are causing my dad problems on his kidneys–oh, then there is the joy of female facial hair that comes along with polycystic ovaries. I’m so sick of health issues! Sorry you are having them.
