Life's a Stitch

Every morning just before 8:00 a group of girls walks past our house on their way to school. I figure they are about 14 years old, you can tell by their giggling. The sound makes me happy. I remember being that age, sitting with my friends under a tree playing cards all day listening to records on a portable record player that was covered with orange and pink psychedelic flowers. Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Monkees, the Turtles; oops, I date myself. I bet we sounded like those girls. It was like a scene from the movie Now and Then. We all had our more serious life troubles but the times under that tree provided balance to our lives. Hmmmm…sounds like a knitting group I know. Looking for a “w” word for a good alliteration describing a group of women. A Wisdom of Women, a Waggle of Women, A Wonder of Women, A Wither of Women (that sounds terrible, but sometimes I feel that way).
