We had a situation at work yesterday (and I will leave it at that, so as not to blog about work), that caused my co-worker and I to start with "What If’s".  It was a rolling ball of muddy "What If’s" that got bigger and bigger and rolled faster and faster the longer we "What … Continue reading →

So, I’ve got another secret project going, and I can’t decide how much I’m going to tell you about it, making it necessary for me to distract you from the lack of crafty blog content. I will tell you that my secret project involves sewing and some element of quilting, and has nothing to do … Continue reading →

We got off to a great start this weekend.  This morning, we woke up and lazed around a bit, and then got on the bikes and headed for the library about twelve miles away from the house.  It’s been a long time since I went to a regular public library.  I’ve been in school for … Continue reading →

Shortly after I returned from Maryland Sheep & Wool, I received the Mason-Dixon Knitting book in the mail.  Even before I received the book, log-cabinning had commenced.  This week was all about Mason-Dixon Gifting. For Mother’s Day, I made my mother-in-law two dishcloths and grouped them with some fancy hand soap for her kitchen.  I … Continue reading →

It’s a good day!  I got some unexpected time off work today, returned some clothes and got more money back than I thought I would, and got to go out to eat with the husband for lunch.  This afternoon, I will go out with some friends to celebrate my Master’s Graduation…all in all, a great … Continue reading →

Sometimes I’m more productive when I have more demands on my time.  This forces me to be focused, tasky, efficient.  But, right now is not one of those times.  Being done with school means I can just come home and knit and watch all the sweeps television (two words: Grey’s Anatomy, craziness).  I’m busy at … Continue reading →

After the party it’s the afterparty…After the festival it’s the afterfestival, and festive it was.  We had a little gathering at our place the evening after sheep & wool, comlplete with pizza, drinks in fun pink glasses, and other assorted entertainment.  I was so busy having fun that I forgot to take pictures, so I … Continue reading →

Oh how I loved Maryland.  Many of my friends have already told you all about it, so I’ll just expand & tell a bit of my story.  I met up with Kate in the airport baggage claim.  I saw a girl across the room that I thought was her and that girl picked up her … Continue reading →

Today I defended my thesis.  Never again will I utter the words, "I can’t because I have to work on my thesis."  You know what this means…more time for knitting!  Oh, and maybe I’ll actually get around to blogging about MD Sheep and Wool.  Continue reading →

So I’m off to Maryland Sheep and Wool this weekend for my second year.  Last year, I was really nervous.  I had plans to stay with someone that I had emailed for a while, but never met.  She was picking me up from the airport.  Eek!  What if she was weird?  What if she thought … Continue reading →
