This week we were having our upstairs bathroom shower stall re-done with one of those "bath-fitter" type things. It looks really good and was mostly done on Tuesday, with final touch ups to be done on Wednesday. Wednesday morning, I took my shower and then came downstairs to eat before work. When we came downstairs,… Continue reading Early – C is for Ceilings / Thank You Godmother!

Basking in the Sun:My favorite is the second one. I'm thinking about possibly submitting some photos to the local country fairs this year - I think it would be kindof neat - some of my photos are really good! I've just about cast-off for bobblicious I need slightly more yarn to cast off the remaining… Continue reading B is for / The yay’s have it

It's Sunday of a 3 day weekend, and today feels like a Saturday. In my mailbox yesterday was a cute card Ina, my SP5, sent me some White Tea Teabags to try before I buy - Ina is the best! She was a super SP and has stayed in touch through comments and now RAOK… Continue reading Lazy Day

There is something very soothing about tea, and I feel like I am drinking more water when I do (coffee is "just water… Continue reading Tea

I've been knitting for about 4 years now. I've improved, I've learned, I've tried new things, I've frogged, I've KIP-ed, and I'm quite pleased with my hobby. Tonight, it seems to have taken on a whole new feeling. I've got myself a swift and ball winder! I wound a skein as soon as I had… Continue reading Now I’m a serious knitter

Who hasn't? 4 days into the new year too - not too bad. But I don't know if it's cheating or not - help! I want to read more this year. Actual reading may not happen until the summer months. I do listen to books on my iPodMini (from Audible - which, by the way… Continue reading Cheating on Resolutions?

I was supposed to go back to school today, but - it's a snow day, BONUS! Last week, Betsy and I took a trip out to the Village Sheep - I got quite a pile, including two skeins of Lang Yarns: Tosca, #663-62 and #663-72, instead of Noro to make the Child's Rainbow Scarf from… Continue reading Finished!

There's a new podcast from Cast-on!Channel surfing, I came across Fiddler on the Roof showing on the local public tv channel. Great show - "Sunrise, Sunset" was my father-daughter dance at my wedding - it was played at my parents wedding too, interestingly enough. I love the opening "Tradition" number, but today, as it is… Continue reading To Life / ABC along (maybe)
