10 on Tuesday

I’ve seen this at a few blogs I read and thought I would try it out…let’s see if I keep it up!
this week’s theme: 10 Things You Plan For
1) Waxing — your hair has to be a certain gorilla-length to make it worthwhile
2) Vacation — though even that I leave to the last minute
3) Blog [...]

Been Awhile…

Whoa! Where does the time go??
I will finish reviewing Lost — this season was incredible? wasn’t it? The posts are in draft form, I’ve just been outrageously busy since like April!
Here is a glimpse of just some of the things occupying my time:

Left to Right – Top to Bottom
1> I fostered 3 kittens for the [...]

Dog Days of Summer

Our Summer Program is in full swing at work. We are off on field trips every day. We’ve been to some pretty amazing places already but we are also getting plenty of time back at our building for dressup and K’nex building.
Despite my best efforts, when left to their own devices this is how the [...]

WiP’s? on a Wednesday?

What next?
I have made some real progress on my Alaskan Jacket. Look!

Not only did I finish the back and the 2 fronts, I washed them and blocked them!! There’s a first time for everything. Oooh was that water dirty too – and now the pieces don’t smell faintly of iron (I have no idea what [...]

Maybe this time it’ll stick

I’m back again – for good? Life has just been way too busy lately – I haven’t blogged, I haven’t read blogs…but I have been on Ravelry…and Facebook…and watching Lost and ‘Vivor.
It’s Spring Break – and while that means time off for most people, it means more work for us! But that’s alright, we have [...]

Outside of the Norm

We have had a wonderfully mild week – warm temperatures and sunshine!
It’s a bit of a tease because it is too early for spring, but it has been feeling like it.
We’ve taken advantage of this exceptional weather and spent a lot of time out of doors.

After an impromptu trip to a park (someone misread the [...]

A New Adventure

Sorry to disappoint you {or conversely: relieve you!) – this is not about the 7th, or the Minus 1th Episode of the Lucasfilm series.
It has been outrageously slow at work this week. Monday morning – no children showed up. Weds. – 1 child. Thurs – 2 and today -3. The weather has been wet and cold and [...]

Happy Bloggiversary!

To me!
Today I am celebrating 2 years since I started blogging. I kept thinking I would write something profound but…thinking is a skill I am short on these days…still fighting off a cold and…not getting a lot of sleep so…
In lieu of something profound, let’s celebrate!
                        
Until December 7th, all commentors at the blog will be [...]

Glimpses

I’ve neglected the blog of late – I’m sorry about that. It’s Facebook and….I’ve discovered group forums on Ravelry. Or rather, the usefulness of the forums. Dangerous.  I compare it to a freefall through a wormhole. I login and the next thing I know it’s past time for bed.
I’ve been knitting – we watched a few movies [...]

1st Snow!

Yesterday we had snow for the first time.
I caught some of it falling on my new Noro Hat (which needs blocked).

I tried to get a picture of it falling…not too successful.

This is a little better.
 
The snow seemed to bring out the Eagles. We are their Winter Home.

I haven’t heard them in the morning yet – [...]
