Hello

My very first Blog ......YAY!!!!!!!!! (If you know me well, you now I say that a lot.)Hokay so what got me interested in blogging was knitting. I know you don't see the connection...WELL. Don't the best stories start out with....WELL. I cannot promise this is one of those stories. I had this kooky, fiery, fisty, intelligent, beautiful teacher, Mrs. Galloway for 3rd and 5th grade. She was never my own teacher but she had a gift of knowing all the children in the school. Her name is Mrs. Galloway. I could tell she was cool when I and my group of friends flooded an entire classroom and she stood up and defended us. (But that's for another day) I grew up and graduated from college and went to work as a T.A ( A Teacher Assitant but I believe it stands for Target Area) at my old school. I was there with Mrs. Galloway, who I looked at still with stars in my eyes. Like a little Kid does at his or her teacher when they see them interact in the real world. She always had her knitting. We became friends so much so that we get together at her house and knit along with Keri, Liz and Monique all from the same school district. I learned August 2008 and know I'm trying my hand out at lace knitting. I AM ADDICTED. I love getting together and knitting. It is a social hobby. I am very comfortable @ Mrs. Galloway's house, and she with me, I could tell because one day I said "Hey Mrs. Galloway cand I have some water?" and she said "Get the f&%K out of my house or call me Debbie. No more of Mrs. Galloway!" I love her. She wanted a blog so the knitt-witts is our group blog however very rarely do we take care of it maybe with my new found interest we will so check it out later.
I am obsessed OBSESSED with knitting. (I also love typing IN ALL CAPITALS to prove a point and if you hate that....you'll hate me.) On i-tunes there's a free FREE video podcast called
Let's knit together Cat is the host. She is the cutest person in the whole world and she shows you different techniques in a 12 minute show and goes to knitting and yarn events. The best part is @ these events she meets people I interact witn online all the time. Host of ravelry and The yarn harlott. The Yarn Harlott blog is sooo funny. I have only interacted with them as random comments but I want my own blog! So here it is.
Also I have been kinda sick. I had thyroid cancer when I was 19 and I have a bump in my neck. I am schedualed for a body scan and a neck scan with Radiactive Iodine pills. I had to leave my beloved Levoxyl pills wich is my daily hormone pill. It's the pill that keeps me alive. Since I have no thyroid. It also keeps me energetic. I am so tired and my immune system is down.I right now and coughing my lungs out. I had to leave work, church, my bible study (SHOUT OUT TO MY GANSTAS WITH A BIBLE!) and missed Brynne's B-day(SHOUT OUT TO P-2!) , and have not gone walking with Mina or see Meg (SHOUT OUT TO TFN) I told you if you hate caps man,you hate me. So I figured instead of writting tons of e-mail I will keep a blog and you guys can check it out beacuse my energy is wasted by 12:00.
It is 9:23. Robert is complaining that I need to be in bed. (to keep him warm) but I am excited about this. It's my diary which you all can read.
Now my name Radiactive Superchick was given to me by a friend named Jim when I was 18. I loved him he was soo funny. He was around when I first got a tumor and the docs gave me Radioactive Iodine pills,
but these were no ordinary pills. They gave me Super Powers! I would no longer be known as Monica from the block I would become RADIOACTIVE SUPERCHICK with the power to zap spiders in a hospital room before I even touch them. That really did happen and Jim gave me that name. Now I have lost touch with my friend who used to call and make me laugh while my first stint in the hospital but the name stuck. So if anyone knows Jim who was Joylover24 back in the day let me know. So please check again for another episode of Radioactive Superchick of the 21st century! Did I mention I have superhero complex?
