Status: Arrival at Unit Your item arrived at 8:19 AM on January 10, 2007 While checking the status of my random surge of internet orders of late, I went to check on some yarn that I purchased during Cara’s stash sale.  What a surprise it was that it is already on my doorstep!!!  Sometimes it’s … Continue reading →

This is definitely a hat fit for a cookie monster!  It’s my first charity project of the year for the fun fur for the children’s hospital being organized here.  I made it out of stash yarn that I have had for at least a year, maybe more.  It’s Bernat Boa yarn and I used the … Continue reading →

Proof that I clearly watch too much tivo’d television…while watching the first season of Grey’s Anatomy on DVD, everytime it pauses (where the commercial would be), I want to fast forward.  I am so involved in the show, I haven’t eaten dinner.  I feel like I’m turning into my little sister.  When she was little, … Continue reading →

Just a few random thoughts for you on this super dreary day in my neck of the woods…cold and wet, yuck! Random thought #1:  14 weeks and growing Here’s a 14 week belly shot for ya!  I’m getting big and fast, although I swear I’m not as big as this picture indicates.  But, then again, … Continue reading →

What’s our favorite Christmas present?  Finally being able to let everyone in on a little secret. I’m having a baby!  The little beast, as Jason affectionately calls it, is due on July 1st, 2007, so we will have quite the exciting year ahead of us.  I’m 13 weeks along, and the picture above is from … Continue reading →

I took advantage of a holiday at work (I’ve still been working half days, but have had afternoons off) to take a quilting class this week.  There was an accelerated class at Quilter’s Emporium in the afternoons.  My classmate was a college student, so it was really fun and we ended up having very similar … Continue reading →

I know, it’s shocking.  Not only did I finish one thing, but I’ve finished two!  They are Christmas presents but I don’t think the recipients know about my blog, so I’m going to risk it and post it.  These are already wrapped, paired with giftcards and sitting under the recipient’s Christmas tree.  I decided to … Continue reading →

And since I don’t even want to read about how tired I am, I haven’t been blogging.  I am working on finishing some presents for my step-mom and step-sisters prior to Thanksgiving.  They are for Christmas, but since I will see them on Thanksgiving and not Christmas, I am trying to take everything then to … Continue reading →

Since you have probably seen a ton of re-caps by now, I’ll try to make mine quick and get to the fiber acquisitions in the next post.  So, upon arriving in New York City, I met up with Anne Marie and Carrie and we got in our crazy rental car (a bright orange Chevy HHR) … Continue reading →
