My time with my knitting is the theme of Day 7. How can I put this mildly and still sound like an intelligent human being? My best knitting is when I sit at the computer 'watching', and I use the word loosely, my soap. Days of our Lives is something I've followed for years. At first it was only on Fridays. I would tape it on Fridays and watch it whenever. Then I retired and looked in on it a little more frequently. It goes nowhere, so even though I miss a week or so (or more) I don't feel like I've missed anything. And the best part of it, they talk so much, and repeat everything, I don't have to look at the screen. I watch/listen online because I'm constantly behind in episodes, and it's a great pasttime. I 'heart' Victor's wit. I think he's my favorite character. And I marvel that many of the women have been married to the same two men in the show. The only time I am surprised is when I haven't been following it and a new person arrives, usually as one of the old characters. A new face and an old name! Very clever.
Well, there it is... for all to see. My knitting time: 50 minutes a day, if I can get it!
I know! This is as good as it gets!!
I've never watched soaps, but I know that one has been going on for a very long time. I like knitting in silence or with quiet instrumental music playing...I make fewer mistakes that way.
