I am trying to resist the temptation to plan when it comes to my knitting.  I’ve read many different lists on different knitblogs this week, and I really want to make one of my own.  I like lists.  On the way  home from our Christmas trip, I actually bought a very overpriced notepad just so … Continue reading →

This year, I’m setting out several New Years Goals.  I guess they are resolutions, but they differ from your typical "pie in the sky" resolutions.  Here they are… 1.  Ride the MS150.  I think I’ve mentioned this one before.  We will probably be starting a cycling blog to allow people to monitor our progress, so … Continue reading →

I love new years.  It’s a great time for taking inventory of the past year and starting fresh in a new year.  I took a little time this week to take inventory of my yarn and supplies.  It was very inspiring.  I wish I would have done before and after shots, but I only have … Continue reading →

Okay, okay…I am giving in and revealing the Super Secret Project. This picture stinks, though. I had to use a flash which more vividly exposes my use of different dyelots. In real life, you can’t tell the difference unless you know it’s there. I just couldn’t find enough balls of the yarn in a single … Continue reading →

We just got back from travelling for the Christmas holiday today and I am wiped out. We went from Houston to Arkansas and from Arkansas to Nashville then from Nashville to Houston today. 6 planes in 6 days.

Who’s counting?  I am. Only three more work days until the end of this week and I don’t have to come back to work until next year!  Sounds very dramatic, doesn’t it?  Today more got added to my plate.  The husband called and there is a Christmas party to go to tonight that he wasn’t … Continue reading →

Does anyone else remember way back on August 3rd when I started my Christmas gifts so I wouldn’t be freaking out at this point?  Well, it didn’t work.  The Super Secret Project is 65% complete.  Do the math here people, that means I have 35% of it to finish.  In 8% of the time.  What … Continue reading →

Well, I haven’t posted because I have jumped into the world of online shopping.  It is a very dangerous world, especially when you have already basically completed your Christmas shopping and don’t need to buy anymore stuff.  So, I’ve been browsing around and have only purchased one thing.  If I’m going to order things, it … Continue reading →

Do you ever get stuck on a song?  I’m one of "those people" who gets stuck on a few songs at a time and cannot tire of them.  Until I tire of them and move on to some others.  I try to restrain myself and not listen to them so much that I can’t stand … Continue reading →

So, I survived the poncho madness. I do have one more poncho to finish, but I don’t have all the yarn for that one, so I can’t work on it yet. Above you will see Angela on the left and Caroline on the right both thrilled with their poncho acquisition. I am wearing Audrey, which … Continue reading →
