Show & Tell: GONE. And a CONTEST!

I just noticed that my "Common Thread" is gone. It must have broken from my wrist sometime last night. I've worn it continuously (24/7) with pride since May of last year. And now it's gone. :( I'm having an emotional day missing my Mary, and this almost sent me over the edge.

So for today's Show & Tell, I bring you a photo of when I wore two threads. Yes, that is my veiny right hand. It has seen MANY an IV needle in the past couple of years, but I digress . . . My first Common Thread - the skinny, faded one - eventually broke months ago, but my newer one was thicker and stronger. It was tied on my wrist and never came off.

I'd love for this to be a "sign", but I doubt it would be that exciting. I have to replace it because I feel nekkid without it. Luckily I have a bunch of thread left to make a new one. Well . . . to have my sister make me a new one.

In fact, I have enough thread that the first three people to comment with their email addresses will get some thread from me for their OWN Common Thread!! Maybe I can bribe con beat down ask my sister to make you a simple one just like mine if you like.

Oooo - my first contest!! I feel so blogalicious. I'm already feeling a little bit better now!
