I will be taking a lot of photos from here on out…
Even of myself.
I’m in love with the macro setting:
This was my 1st attempt at the macro setting.
Another attempt.
Jessie is not fond of the new black thing I keep sticking in her face.
Sam’s ok with it. I might even call him a camerawhore.
Jessie [...]

As I sit here, waiting to be sent home early from work on Christmas Eve, I resigned myself to not finishing one of my knitted gifts. I simply have too much wrapping and baking to do to finish. It’s unfortunate BUT I will still wrap up the gift, needles intact, with the promise of finishing the [...]

Once again, it’s two days before Christmas and the holiday has snuck up on me, despite my Christmas spirit. I’m spending the day finishing up two knitted gifts and then perhaps I will do some wrapping and/or mailing of Christmas cards (yep, that’s me, the Christmas card procrastinator). Work will be relatively light tomorrow so [...]

As many of you know, the last few years have been a bit rough for me. Personally, professionally, etc. The month of March will mark three years since I left my ex-husband. Three years, can you believe it?
The holidays then became a rather depressing season for me. Especially the first year. I think I was [...]

So after my shopping mavenry last night, I stayed up an half hour past my bedtime and put away all other projects to finish this:
Granddad’s 2nd hat.
I used the better part of 2 skeins of Noro Silk Garden in color #249 on 10.5 needles with yarn doubled. Knit in the round, 1×1 rib, easy easy hat. [...]

Yep, I’m feeling quite full of myself right at the moment. I just bought 5 Christmas presents online in under 10 minutes. And they’re all perfect for the recipients. At least, I think so. And Christmas cards were on clearance so I knocked those out too. Every year I try to “think ahead” and “plan” [...]

In the midst of my panic to finish Christmas knitting on time, finish this month’s class with a decent grade and keep my sanity through it all, I knit something lovely.
Now they aren’t finished. Yet. I started the pair last night, after coming home from work. I found two balls of Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk [...]

J and I did a little LYS shopping the day before my birthday and here’s what I brought home:
Oh how I love this yarn. Tru Love Fibers – oh it’s true love alright! This [...]

Procrastinating once again.
I wish that the professors I take my classes from would be a little more consistent. One month I have an easy-peasy class, the next month I submit to a hard-a$$ of a prof. What’s the deal?
Of course there’s nothing I can do about it except do my work and pray to the [...]
