Dear Mom,
The strangest thing just happened. We were flipping through the channels and landed on ABC's Primetime Medical Mysteries show. They were talking about a young woman who experienced the sensation and visual of objects getting very very small, or getting very very large. It's called Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, and is connected to auras that people get before they get migraines. (I always thought "auras" meant people saw lights around things, but it's not.) The doctor said that some people see things as mosaics or fragmented, and some people see objects as receeding far away. One girl got them when she concentrated hard on piano sheet music or reading, and it usually only happens when people are young and they grow out of it.
This used to happen to me, usually at the dinner table. I usually had the receeding visual. I thought everyone had that happen to them. Isn't that the weirdest thing? I remember it happening so vividly, but I never told anyone about it until just now.
Love,
Ruth

Dear Mom,
Progress on the Origami Cardi sleeve:
Bumpilicious.
Startitus progress. This is where I am on the dress after 1.5 balls. The yarn is a little on the scratchy side, but I think it'll be okay for the garment. The cool thing is you start on the bottom hem, so as you decrease, you pick up momentum. YAY.
More bumpiliciousness.
Guess I failed at bringing more color into my life.
Love,
Ruth

Dear Mom,
Sometimes the bumpy road is the one you want to be on.
In an effort to have a project that I can work on without concentrating so hard, I am using the recycled wool to knit the Origami Cardigan from Interweave Knits. The sleeve so far:
The peach cobbler I made last night was good, but during baking, the peaches shrank and the biscuit got big. I got teased for not using enough peaches, but I swear, I peeled and sliced at least 75 or 80. :) It still tasted good. I still have enough peaches to keep trying and refining my baking skills.
Love,
Ruth
