I am stressed about my unfinished knitting projects. I like the process of knitting and usually it relaxes me but not lately. Perhaps it’s because I really wanted to have one in particular done by now, before winter was over. We have had a mild Texas winter. This is not a bad thing – there just haven’t been many days cold enough to wrap yourself up in wool.

On the other hand, the signs of spring are peeking out. I took this picture of white blossoms daring to show themselves on the tree in my backyard. They even made it through a thunderstorm, gusty winds and a tornado watch.

Well, if they can still bare their delicate blooms after all that, I can peacefully keep knitting.
