I meant to only skip a week between posts, because LIFE, but now we're in December, and I still haven't photographed my FINISHED Spice of Life Blanket, or posted pictures of Maggie's FINISHED socks. Sigh. It's the end of the year and I've literally been cramming all the doctor and dentist appointments I've put off … Continue reading Holy Cow, Holidays!

A Day Late and Several Rows Short
Guys, this has been a busy week. I've tried to catch up on the Spicier Life CAL (and I WILL!) but I promised progress photos yesterday and I did not deliver. My apologizes. So, I am about three rows short of finishing part four, and I really thought I was going to knock those out … Continue reading A Day Late and Several Rows Short
I’ll Take ALL the Yarn, Please.
Maybe it's the chill in the air, but I've been on a yarn binge lately. I promised myself I wouldn't buy anymore yarn without a specific project in mind for it, but...eh. Whenever I tell myself, "don't buy it! You don't need it!", another voice answers, "you're not the boss of me!" So, I bought … Continue reading I’ll Take ALL the Yarn, Please.
Progress, People! I’ve Made Progress!
I've been busy. And, I've had a chance to relax. Most importantly, I've had time to finish not one, but TWO projects, freeing myself up to start new stuff. First, A Spicier Life Blanket CAL update. Part three has been released today, but I've only given it a quick glance to see what stitches are … Continue reading Progress, People! I’ve Made Progress!

Regardless, I've been knitting, crocheting, and doing the autumn type things, like going to the county fair, and buying up too many Halloween decorations--even though it's been so muggy I haven't wanted to decorate the house. I have … Continue reading Forsyth Fair
New Projects and Progress (and Caught Red-handed)
I pretty much spent this week indoors and avoiding "the outside." After Sean's health scare last week (he's completely back to normal, by the way) and all the terrible news online this week, "inside" felt much more comfortable--and safer. Living is exhausting, sometimes. I find this is especially true in summer, where there seems to be zero quiet … Continue reading New Projects and Progress (and Caught Red-handed)
And, that is Why they are Goals, Not Resolutions
So, I missed last week. I thought about posting. I really did. I just got a little overwhelmed by all the celebrities dying. Around my birthday (it was last week). As I march slowly to middle age, and, ultimately, death. (See. Total downer. I did you all a favor by skipping last week.) I did … Continue reading And, that is Why they are Goals, Not Resolutions
