I spent this weekend home alone with T-Bone. While the husband was off in Vegas with the Boys from work, T-Bone and I were chilling at the house. I got to hang out with a friend and get a ton of household chores done. I started working on my thesis and I made progress on … Continue reading →

This was not supposed to be a busy week. Really. But it has been. My father-in-law has been in from out of town which has translated to having plans every night. We enjoyed his time here, but I will be happy to go home tonight and sit on the couch to knit and watch a … Continue reading →

Oh, it’s such a Monday. I think Mondays feel worse after you have had a great weekend because you’re more reluctant to give that up. We entered the weekend with no plans, which is something we don’t experience very often. Friday, I went shopping at Target for my sister’s birthday present. I knew what I … Continue reading →

I’ve missed my blog! I finally got a new laptop on Sunday and then had to leave to go to a conference for work, so I haven’t had a chance to post. My new laptop rocks! My old one (which was less than a year old) bit the dust and I had the Best Buy … Continue reading →

I got a new laptop last night, so I’m back in business! Thank goodness for Service Plans. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know and now I’m going out of town until Wednesday for work, so I’ll be back here then. Have a great week! Continue reading →

Yesterday, I had an hour long knitting shopping excursion during lunch. Who needs food when you can get knitting gadgets for half-price? I really went to Hobby Lobby to look for knitting needles (they had all needles and gadgets 50% off), hoping they’d have some Clover Bamboo circulars, but they only had the ones I … Continue reading →

Hi! Today, I present to you, the post of excuses. Excuse #1: I don’t have any pictures because my laptop, on which I edit said photos for size constraints, is currently injured. We formatted the hard drive because it had some funky stuff on it and now we can’t get the CD drive to read … Continue reading →

This week has been full of the joys of homeownership. We have a few warranty issues with our builder (who has responded promptly and efficiently), but unfortunately they are having different people come out like every day. So, I stayed home yesterday morning to hang out with the plumber and my husband is home today … Continue reading →

I snuck an almost finished object in on ya. This week I wanted something quick, a little instant gratification is nice sometimes. I had started a Sophie bag a week or so ago and picked it back up Monday night. I figured it was a great way to continue practicing continental knitting since it’s in … Continue reading →

Well, it’s back to work for me today. We don’t have today off and it was so surreal to drive to work without traffic. It makes you wonder if it’s really Monday. We had a good weekend. I finished my Critter Knitter blanket (minus the weaving of the ends), which turned out quite patriotic. I … Continue reading →
