**Warning: I do say the word “nekkid” a few times and a troubling thought or two about what my exhusband did years ago do so bypass this post if you don’t want to read a thing about it. It’s completely random anyway.
During the most random times of the day, a thought about my former life and exhusband will sneak in. [...]

My Own Worst Enemy
Posted in School, tagged credential program, School, writing paper on October 27, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Even though I tell myself not to procrastinate on my class work I still do. I do it every single time.
Thus today was another day I spent literally all day (12 hours) working on a 3000 word paper. Now, I took breaks. I did research too (see, that could have easily have been done ahead [...]
California is on Fire

I know I’m not the only one with friends and family in San Diego or in any of the 6 other counties that are burning up right now. The destruction is unbelievable and has rendered me practically speechless. Touching base today with my loved ones helped lessen the fear on my end but I can’t even [...]

It’s true. I’ve managed to complete a tiny knitting project that wasn’t even on my original list.
These sweet little booties:
Aren’t they precious? The pattern is from this book. I used Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino, barely used any of the skein. Lovely sky blue color. They are for my cousin’s baby, who’s wife is having a [...]
Sick

At least it’s not strep. But if feels like it, darn it! Achy, swollen sore throat, fatigued, sort of earache. It’s a virus and it will pass. So says my doctor.
I just need to whine for a second and then I will go back to my couch and quilt and 28 pounds of cat/insulation.
The dogs [...]
Distracted

Short short post today.
I’m working on a school assignment and am halfway done (maybe less). Need a brain break.
Brief knitting update: The yarn for my niece’s felted mitred bag arrived this past week. I’m using Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride Worsted in Kiwi (LOVE this color) and RPM Pink. She wanted pink and green so that is [...]
It Begins Again

Do you remember this? I do. And I remember the vicodin I took Christmas day because of all that teeny sock knitting I did.
I swore I would never do that again.
And I didn’t. Last year’s holidays were knit-free.
This year, however, will not be knit-free. This year there are more knitted gifts outside of Christmas to give [...]
Hope

Underneath the black black coal
Hope shimmers like a fleck of stone.
It is there although semi-hidden.
It is there shining quietly
To lighten my heart.
It’s Been a While
Posted in Knitting, Life in General, Randomness on October 7, 2007 | 3 Comments »
It’s no secret that it’s been a while since I last posted. Or posted with regular frequency.
Part of that has to do with working full time while being a full time student. Any time spent on the computer these days is spent doing my assignments/reading and/or reading everyone else’s blogs I haven’t read in a [...]
