Photos of knitting are coming. Really. Life somehow keeps interferring. Here are the highlights of my weekend. 1) My brother had a comedy show this weekend. He was fantastic! And even better, this show was a contest and he was one of two winners that get to perform for an HBO booker for an HBO… Continue reading Whirlwind
Sum-up
It's been a while. Things are going really well, but I've been lazy when it comes to blogging. I'm still reading blogs and boards and stuff, but put off blogging for any number of reasons. The dog is barking. I haven't taken photos. Whatever. Two of my best friends put together a baby shower for… Continue reading Sum-up
Fiber Godmother Q & A
Fiber Godmother Questionnaire (Round 2!)General Fiber Questions answers:My fiber related hobby is really just knitting. I keep telling myself I'll learn crochet and get around to embroidery, but so far that hasn't happened (and it isn't for lack of supplies!) I taught myself how to knit around 6 years ago. I'm still learning, but am… Continue reading Fiber Godmother Q & A
Need Help reading pattern
for the "Tangled Yoke Cardigan" - I have been plotting this out very carefully on index cards so that I can mark them up / check off what's been done. In looking ahead, I'm not getting things to work out and just want to be sure I haven't missed anything. Here's what I've done so… Continue reading Need Help reading pattern

I'm excited for fall, but in my head it still feels like July or early August! The knitting front has been a bit slower,… Continue reading Knitting FOs!

This year though I have to make an exception, given that I may or may not have had the baby by… Continue reading Candy Cane Hats
Wii would like to knit
Yesterday Dan brought home a Wii. It's very very cool. I may actually get back into playing video games again. But then, when would I knit? I'll make the time certainly. Because I have a new book - didn't intend to buy it yesterday after the SnB, it sort of just happened (Sorry Sam!) -… Continue reading Wii would like to knit
The Human Element
Checking the blogs this morning, on my Science Blogs feed one of the first posts is Genomes Sock - yay! Reminded me that I want to knit that sock. Good way to start the week I think. I really like the Dow Human Element ad campaign. I want to make a blanket that is the… Continue reading The Human Element
Which brings us to today.
I'm getting caught up in my blog posting, go me! On Wednesday, I started dog training classes at PawsNEffect in Hamden. Jackson joins me next week. Even though he's two, he's never been to obedience classes. He's a really great dog - sits when you ask, and doesn't get into too much trouble around the… Continue reading Which brings us to today.
