Hi Everyone, I apologize for the delay in getting the Loop Shawl out yesterday. On Tuesday, when my Hubby and I were heading into town so I could do the craft show, a deer came running out of a ditch and into our car. Thankfully, it only took out a headlight. I thought I was ok until Tuesday night when I started to be in pain. I have some back/neck issues, and the jarring from the accident has caused some trauma to those areas, so I ended up spending yesterday getting assessed and working with the insurance company to get Chiropractic coverage so I can begin to heal from this. So what does it mean for the community? I am still here; the community will continue to run, but I have been told I may need to slow down and get more rest for the next few weeks. I will still be working on new patterns for the community, but they may take me longer to get done. I will be getting the Loop Shawl pattern out today/tomorrow, as I only need to finish the written pattern. Thanks for your understanding, Kim P.S. We don't know how the deer is. It did manage to run into the woods after we hit it, but it was hurt and bleeding.
