1. I have placed the baby sweater into time out. I did not want to do it but the sweater forced it’s hand. For the SECOND time, I followed the metric measurements instead of the inches and wound up with a sweater front twice as long as it should have been. Two. Times. I have [...]

no killing of people, cats or plants was involved
Pssst. I’m afraid to go in my fridge. There is a half drank (drunk? Drinked?? Drunken????…..) a half full bottle of diet coke in there. I refuse to drink it. I’m pretty determined this time. I’ve had a couple of cups of tea, a cup of yerba mate and plenty of water. I may even [...]

Kicking it
The fear has crept into my mind. About health, future and present. My Mom has been so sick lately (she is once again in the hospital with a possible intestinal infection. I have pleaded with her to see a specialist but she will have none of it. I am quite afraid of where this will [...]

Honk if you agree!
I am currently reading Breakfast with Buddha by Roland Merullo and loving it. It is light, quick reading and yet thought provoking at the same time. One of those conundrums in life I love so much. One line stopped me in my tracks. I have shared it with a lot of people so far and [...]

♥ on my toes
About 2 or 3 years ago (and whenever I say that it most likely means 4 or 5 years ago) my sister in law, Cheryl knit and felted a pair of slippers for me. I have worn them literally every day since, wearing holes in the bottoms. Even holey, I wore them every day. They [...]

mild weather, mud up to my knees and dream world
Today is another fine day in my neighborhood. Mud season is here and that means one thing….spring is lurking. Of course, the forecast is for 4-6 inches of snow tomorrow, but for today we revel in the 50F weather! I have whipped my windows open to change the stale air in the house (not to [...]

Every time I sit down here at this computer to write something, I come up empty. This turn of events has left me not happy at all. It all ends up to sound like whining and complaining and even I get tired of it.
So, yeah, life is a bit of a drag lately. Blah blah, [...]

And so I knit..
A baby sweater needed to be knit. Who am I to resist? The baby is a girl, the first grandchild of my cousin Fred and his wife. I used to babysit Fred when he was a baby. See if that doesn’t make me feel old! Ha! I spent about an agonized hour in the LYS [...]
