Counting Therapeutic Benefits #1

1)  Having a knitting project with me at all times gives me the confidence to go places without fearing that I'll be stuck with nothing to do.  Getting stuck waiting in line, or for an appointment, is a big deal for me.  Waiting 30 minutes to get a table at a restaurant is out of the question.  Even 10 minutes can seem like a lifetime.  If I have knitting, or a grand baby to play with, it's tolerable.  Some restaurants waiting areas are poorly lit, or are at the bar, where being able to see well is not a sure thing.  See knitting in the dark somewhere later in this list.
