A few follow ups to some things I've posted over the past few weeks.
1. I just checked the website of our local paper and my editorial letter was printed in today's paper. Only problem - they misquoted what I wrote (...even though I sent them an email...). So the message of my letter is confusing at best. I was writing in support of recent editorial cartoons and my whole letter shows my support except one line:
I wrote: "If you like the cartoons, I think you should contact [the paper] and let them know."
And they printed: "If you don’t like the cartoons, I think you should contact [the paper] and let them know."
Urg!! Why would I want people to tell the paper they don't like the cartoons, when the rest of my letter is talking about how much I like them?? How frustrating! So anyone reading the paper today, I didn't write that. Also, I have learned my lesson about entering into local politics via the paper.
2. On a recent visit with my Grandma, she gave me a counter for my knitting needles so I don't have to rely solely on my cheat sheets anymore. Nice!
Also thanks to everyone who has been reading this blog over the past few weeks - I really appreciate your support!!
