Once In A Lifetime

Wednesday, 30 April 2008 1:32 P GMT-05
You know how I talk about how small my life is and how I am so not one of the cool kids. Well I've been trying to expand my life a little and live. I want to do some fun things, things I never did when I was younger. Things that are just a little

Rainy Day

After having the most beautiful spring weather last week we are paying for it this week with cooler temperatures and rain. As you can see from the photo the grass is starting to green up a bit. At least it looks like spring even if it doesn't fee

My View

I know I talk a lot about the same things. Mainly stuff that drives me crazy and stuff that I just love. My view is fairly small. My life is fairly small. Quite a while back people where posting photos of where they knit. Half of the year I knit in m

Before I Forget

It would appear that my head is so full of things I have to remember some are starting to fall out. I forgot to take the dog to the groomer today. Oops. That's the first time that's happened in the 8 years we've been taking him there 

Spring, For Real

Monday, 21 April 2008 10:34 A GMT-05
Different things mark the start of spring for each of us. For me the sure sign of spring isn't the first robin appearing in the yard or the flowering of the early bulbs. For me the sure sign of spring is knitting on the porch. I am happy to repor

Brain Dump with Knitting

Tuesday, 15 April 2008 8:26 A GMT-05
So I bet you're wondering just how much knitting one can get done while one is sitting and waiting at the hospital. Not as much as I would have liked but enough to keep me sane. On the first night I finished the Oc-Toe-ber socks. They are actuall

Wacky Wednesday

Wednesday, 9 April 2008 11:54 A GMT-05
Here is the normal state of my kitchen. Dirty/clean dishes always in the sink and on the counter. That is all the workspace I have in the kitchen too so when things get cluttered up it's bad. I have done the best I can cutting back to just the mo

Progress on Two Fronts

Tuesday, 8 April 2008 11:08 A GMT-05
Knitting first. The sock now has a heel and more than half the gusset decreases are done. Beth and I are starting our next sweater. We have decided on the Gathered Pullover. It's great having someone to knit along with. I can't wait to get st

Lax or Lazy?

Monday, 7 April 2008 10:36 A GMT-05
I can't quite decide which I am. Over the years I have really tried to be more calm and relaxed about things. Just taking each thing as it came and dealing with it. Somewhere along the way I lost the "re" and just became "lax"

Wouldn't You Know It...

Wednesday, 2 April 2008 8:59 A GMT-05
The minute I tackled most of the items on yesterdays list I figured out what I was doing wrong with the camera. I forgot to flip one switch. I don't think I'll forget that in the future. The other day I ventured out to the local fabric/yarn/h

April's Fool

Tuesday, 1 April 2008 9:29 A GMT-05
Why yes that would be me. I have photos to share and stories to tell and gift knitwear progress but I can't crack open that new camera and get them to spill out. I got it to work last time. Why can't I this time? I'm putting my money on t
