Seriously. It’s been a hard month. Daisy is fine btw, still some left side weakness but expected to recover fully. Her staples are out and she’s going to have a small scar, but that’s ok. It seems like you shouldn’t come through something like that without a scar. 2 feet of snow this past weekend. [...]

(stay until your love is….) Sorry…. couldn’t resist Simple Minds. I’d like to have the time to post about how I feel now that I am officially in my mid-to-late 30s… (I hit 35 on black friday!) Or how I seem to be dealing with that by deciding to learn to play guitar. No idea [...]

I bought some glitz. A rather lot of it. I have this nice really black Alpaca see… and it’s been in my fiber stash for over a year…. waiting on me to spin it… and when I got the carder, it occurred to me to use what I just learned in the Camp Pluckyfluff class [...]

So I got an IM yesterday, and a friend (hi Pik!) told me I hadn’t posted in a while on my blog. I agreed and told him why, and was told to stop being lazy. So I’m posting! I finished my Embossed Leaves sock the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. (Yay personal goal met!) It’s ok, but [...]

Last week I finally caught up to October 2001, and bought and ipod (black 80gig classic).  It’s nifty and gadgety and will be great when I have to drive further than the 4 miles it takes me to get to work.  And it should be great for the plane on vacation, at least for shmoo, [...]

While doing much better, and far more responsive than she has been for the past week, I have been worried about a relapse and her lack of eating/drinking. So Princess Daisy got to visit the neighboring kingdom of Work, where she has privileged enough to sleep under my desk. I am much encouraged with her [...]

Recently Amie has had some worries regarding her little fellow Trevor. And last night, Daisy had a seizure.   I am horribly worried.  But we are seeing the vet in about 2 hours, and I hope they can make her feel better and maybe tell me what is wrong. So go hug your pets and [...]

My sockpal’s first sock is completed. Modeled here by me. My foot is an inch and a half wider than my pal’s so, if it looks a little tight and stretched.. well, it is. Use your imagination. The top view. The side view. The bottom view. Proof I’m washing it for my pal. And finally, [...]

Sunday, I was getting ready to comb BFL for spinning, and put a mesh basket on the bed. I hadn’t even gotten settled before Bri decided that he was moving into the basket, and that there was no way I was getting him to move out. And then, he settled right down and smugly went [...]

How cool is this?

You can make your own Opoly board. I am not sure I’d want to spend hours doing it, but it sure sounds neat if you had kids or a theme in mind to give someone. On the knitting front, I am working on some armwarmers. Cause, you know, you NEED them in June when it’s [...]
