Dear Friends of The Blue Purl,
We hope this newsletter finds you well.
In these challenging times, humor can help. Actually, it can help you stay healthy. Here is what
Google
says:
“Laughter
decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease.”
So let’s try to laugh, and let’s do it together.
The Blue Purl is here in good times and bad to help add texture, mission, in some ways, purpose to our lives by supporting us in our passion. But come on, we can all be a bit too serious at times. So right now, help us come up with The Blue Purl's non-corona glossary that can remind us how lucky we are, and maybe, just maybe, give us all a life-saving chuckle.
Let’s start:
Shelter In Place:
A seat at the table, preferably on a Tuesday when Yiba, Keri & Carla are in the house.
Social Distancing:
Moving to the small table because that dang Maple sweater and all it's bobbins are all over the place- never mind the chatter and lack of concentration.
PPE:
Pretty, Pink, Easy - makes all projects better
Flatten the Curve:
When your latest project is going in all sorts of directions and you bring it in to have Keri magically block it.
Community Spread:
When one person is at the table working on a gorgeous new project, let's say The Shift, then we're all doing it! Remember the Kenzie Frenzie.
Patient Zero:
That would be Susan - in the case of the Kenzie Frenzie.
Hoarding:
Do we even need to go there?
So let's build our glossary together Send us your suggestions!
Ok, maybe you didn’t bust a stitch, so help us out and send along any funny thoughts you have. We will share it with our community, because laughter really is the best medicine.
We want to wish everyone who is celebrating a joyous and healthy Easter or Passover. It is a chance to remember that the glass is half full, that we are lucky to be able to share time with family and loved ones, even if it is virtually.
And remember; let’s try to laugh. It’s good for mind, soul and body.
