My yarn stash is in such a state! I have basically 4 or 5 plastic totes plus a couple of smaller plastic containers full of yarn (my stash documentation got stalled during all my swap issues so I never did get it all that organized), to which I just add a layer of yarn when […]
So my MIL passes on their Michael’s coupons when they get them. Yesterday was the last day of the coupon so I decided to stop by in the morning. Since I had a bit more time, I decided to go to Jo-Ann as well (can you believe I used to live up the street […]
Can you believe BR actually tried to “show me” I can has cheezburger today? After I showed it to him already? Anyway, I definitely think this one will be circulating the knitting blogs soon (if it hasn’t already):
Well, since Friday night we haven’t had any recurrence of DL’s incident, but we are awaiting news as to what tests our insurance will cover. We’re lucky to have a great children’s hospital here at Stanford, so there’s that.
I haven’t felt like knitting much what with our drama this weekend and the summer and all […]
I just barely caught my breath from finishing up my teacher gifts when we had even more drama here at home.
Thursday I went to Tuesday Morning and, passing up a pretty large yarn and bead selection, bought the rest of my teacher gifts. I ended up giving three teachers kerchiefs/scarves along with a decorative notepad. […]
So, last night in the midst of 6 hours of the 1985 version of Pride and Prejudice (yes, I am obsessed.) I semi-solved the problem with scarf # 3 for my sons’ teachers. I technically have ready to give to them my mini-Ella (I had a great half assed blocking photo yesterday but my […]
This is why I never finish anything.
This was supposed to be a triangle, except where I started (top middle/right) ended up being really weird. It looks poncho-like doesn’t it? Except it’s barely large enough for a kerchief. So tonight, after casting off because I was running out of yarn, I decided to […]
Can you believe I finally watched The Sopranos final episode, and my TiVo only taped the first hour? So I missed probably the last 10 minutes! It’s coming on again this evening, but it’s hard to avoid spoilers as every news source is discussing the final episode and I’m still in the dark!
So far it’s […]
It is such a production to get photos onto my computer these days that I have waited forever to post just in case I had time to pull my laptop out of its hiding place (the kids love to play with it if it’s out), take a photo or two of my WIPs, download them, […]
Well, so much for my scarf plan - sometime the day before yesterday I sustained a computer injury (which scares me for any future full time work, since I’m not on the computer 40+ hours a week and am getting injured) and my hand is killing me. I’ve got work to do, too, but it […]
