In theory, it's all about the fiber – knitting, crocheting, sewing, and spinning – but really, it's all about my life.

I Am Not a Gamer.

No, really, I’m not.  I don’t get the appeal of first-person shooters or stuff like Grand Theft Auto.  It holds absolutely no appeal to me. OK, yes, I love me some Tetris.  And I’m pretty good at it.  Ask Kris – I kick his butt fairly regularly.    But that’s not a REAL game – [...]

Today

Today is a very special day.  You see, thirty-five years ago today, the most amazing man on the planet was born. My husband. Kris, you are my best friend, the love of my life, the center of my universe.  You make me smile, you make me laugh, you make me cry (mostly in a good [...]

This EoP Thing is Addictive

Seriously – I’ve been working on the Liberated Laceweight shawl pretty continually this weekend, which is way easy to do, what with no charts or anything to mess with.  Of course, I did have some snarling issues on Saturday, so I lost about two hours detangling and re-winding, but even so, check out how big [...]

Facebook Has a Purpose

I know that sounds nutty, but it’s true.  Remember my story last week about the high school boyfriend?  Well, he’s on Facebook.  I consternated about sending him a message, I went back and forth, and finally decided to do it.  I kept it very short and simple, told him I’d been thinking about him and [...]

Don’t Vote. No, Really.

Have you seen this?  I saw it on MorninglightMama‘s blog this morning, and if you read Amanda‘s, you’ll see it there, too, but I still wanted to post it here.  It’s too important a message not to keep spreading it. Make your voice heard, no matter where you fall on the spectrum of opinion.  If [...]

SAFF Fail. :(

Yeah… I’m not going to make it down to SAFF this year.  I really, really wanted to go, but things were just not lining up.  Amanda‘s been travelling so much for work and stuff that she wasn’t going to be able to go with me (and I don’t fault her for that), I just can’t [...]

About Me

I'm a married knitter, crocheter, and newbie spinner living in the Maryland suburbs with my photographer- computer geek hubby, 3 cats, and 3 dogs. And yarn. A LOT of yarn. Just ask my hubby.
