Here’s hoping. Monday was wild for me. A dear friend had a stroke. Some things on the job have become a bit of a cl*sterf*ck. My mom was in a “bored” mood. I had a meeting. If I had a hammer. I’d hammer in the morning. Did I just age myself here?
So. Since I got [...]

Ok. No cords. I got a cordless keyboard and mouse on sale!!! Life doesn’t get any better than this. What I needed, on sale. It only took me 3 hours to install the damned thing. It’s the not damned thing’s fault, it’s mine. Entirely. I am an inveterate instruction avoider. I’ve been doing this ever [...]

I apologize for my lateness. I sat down to write my FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY announcement post and my keyboard wouldn’t work. It appears the bitch, Esau Marie, had chewed through the wire. She’s is currently on sale here for about $5 (shipping included).
So, this post is lame and I apologize. [...]

Yes. Another installment in the neverending and completely adorable and fascinating adventures of Grover, the Wonderdog! When we last left Grover, he had just thrown up on the living room rug. It seems his tummy was a tad upset this morning. Thankfully, it was a small mess from a huge dog. We are quite accustomed [...]

No, not that wagon. This is the yarn buying wagon. I have been buying yarn from Simply Socks for several years. They are lovely and fast and carry quality goods. This is what I got:
Fannie’s Fingering Weight from Farmhouse Yarns. This is destined for mitts or mittens. I also fell down with this:

Hi. I am running behind this morning. I’ve been busy and working on “stuff”. OK. The ball band from the Noro Kuryeon is #88. That’s the color for the tea cozy. Emiko has an inquiring mind;-) I love it myself.
I wrote yesterday about a quick knit I started and finished on Saturday. I did have [...]

I finally got a good shot of the tea cozy. It is from Noro Kuryeon, ball band lost in the shuffle. I didn’t use anywhere near the entire skein. It is 6″ tall and 8″ across the bottom. I love it and it’s pretty. Here’s a fairly decent shot.
So, how was your weekend? Mine was [...]

We’re thinking …. with a moose. This guy isn’t getting any smaller. A blurry picture of Grover. It’s been dark and rainy and now the sun seems to be setting almost as soon as I get home. I got the grass cut last night and the rugs vacuumed and packed Mom’s lunch and had [...]

I was given an award yesterday. I have gotten only one other award and it was mostly for Grover so I had to share. This one is mine (but, of course, Grover got a mention). Thank you so much, Nora! Here are my nominations for the Blue Ribbon Award (I don’t have a cool picture [...]
