How do you balance your stitching time with your other obligations such as work, household chores, etc.?
Up until the beginning of this month when Dave decided he’d had enough of TV again for a while, I had a simple answer to this question. I work at home, so every day I’d cross stitch while watching […]
As the day progressed, I felt worse. Ick. Now I’m totally achy, can’t breathe, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah… What am I doing up? Also can’t sleep. Too miserable. Poo.
Sweet little Ricki is sticking to me like glue. What a sweet kitty.
I can’t believe it. How unfair is that? I never get sick right after being sick. Never. Well. I guess not never any more. Gads. Nose is running again. My right sinus hurts so much I can hardly think, and it’s making my eyes water. My throat’s sore. I have a low-grade fever (alternating between […]
As promised, Mom came down to spend Christmas with us on Thursday afternoon. We had a nice day together on Friday. We ran a couple errands… Mom wanted to help us pick out new fabric to cover our kitchen chairs with, and to buy the Maeve Binchy book I just finished for herself. She also […]
Kim’s decided to try to make a dent in her stash, and is inviting others to join her in her three month Stashalong. I haven’t decided for sure if I’m going to participate yet, but I did make her a couple buttons to use. And she likes them. Hey, Mikey! The button above is transparent […]

Which of Santa’s Reindeer Are You?
Don’t know how much time I’ll have for blogging from now until after Christmas. Mom’s coming down to spend the holiday with us. She’ll be here from Thursday until next Tuesday. And then there’s all the prep work we’ve been putting off that will need to get done tomorrow and Thursday morning—no foolin’. Know better […]
I’m finally getting caught up on some of the email I got through the Townsend Sock KAL when I was on vacation… In November! One post of note had a link for this interesting-looking method of casting on, called the Turkish Cast On in Debi’s blog. I’m definitely going to have to revisit this one […]
It’s my parents’ anniversary today. Mom called and talked with Dave last night. She’s all excited. She got a cake, special no-alcohol beer for Dad, invited Dad’s brother and his wife. She’s been telling everyone that they’ve been married 50 years. Um, Dear. Uh, no. Excuse me. I finally got a word in. He finally […]
Got my latest Berroco KnitBits today. Now this is a totally cute bear, the Harry Bear. Had to download and save the pattern. He’s even wearing his Griffindor scarf! Tee hee.
