Challenge #13

TALK ABOUT A COMMUNITY SPACE YOU LIKE. It doesn’t need to be your favorite, or the one where you spend the most time (although it certainly can be). Maybe it’s even one that you’ve barely visited. But talk about that space and how it helps support fannish community.

Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it.

Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. Also, feel free to entice engagement by giving us a preview of what your post covers.

24. Have you ever knitted a garment or had one knitted for you?

When I was 16, my aunt taught me to knit and then taught me to make baby booties. I made 4 pairs. They were so cute. I had a wonderful time with my aunt and she was impressed that I learned it so quickly. Now for the funny part, I never knitted another thing. It was nice that day but it wasn't my thing. Two years later she taught me how to crochet blankets. She gave me tons of yarn, and I used it all to make blankets. I found out I didn't care for that either. I'm just not artistic. But my aunt loved the blankets I made for her. And I loved spending time with her. She's also the one who taught me how to play pinochle. Now that was hard. Too many rules.

23. The pirate William Kidd was born this month in 1645. Have you read Treasure Island?

When I was a kid I read it but I don’t remember it at all. I mean I know it’s about pirate ships and such. Never got into the story. Do you like pirate stories or movies with pirates?

I'm going to start going through the lists tonight. Woot! I hope to fulfill some wishes. I got some today that were really nice. When the lists came out on the 7th, or whenever, I fulfilled some then too. Happy Wednesday to everyone. Getting a late start tonight.

20. Have you read any of the Winnie the Pooh books?

Because of my children I had a whole set of Winnie the Pooh. We also had the movies on vhs tapes. We finally just threw them all away. I used to like the stories with pooor bipolar Eeyore. He was my favorite and my kids liked Piglet and Tigger. Two of my kids would bounce like tigger. It’s a very nice memory. Who were your favorites.
