Hello @knitter and a warm (if rather belated) welcome to the community. We're very glad to have you join us. Looks as if we were short of folks online this afternoon.
Things will liven up a bit tomorrow
So, @knitter, do you think you could tell us a little more about yourself and your situation? We would like to get to know you, and it helps us very much to support you. No rush, no pressure, but we're here and listening,
Very warmest best wishes to you,
Richard

Hi thank you for your welcomes. I am carer to my husband Danny he has a few conditions that he struggles with and I also have a father that recently broke his hip and a brother with learning difficulties so my days are full but I love looking after people. My salvation is knitting and I do for charity prem babies etc. We are waiting to hear if we have been lucky enough to get a bungalow as Danny has crumbling spine and really cannot do stairs.
