A Gathering of Poetry | 2.16.23
I read the poem I am sharing today earlier in the month and I did not know then how much these words would help me as the month progressed. I have memorized these words – it was simple to do so – and they have become my litany of hope as February has had some daunting...
Three on Thursday | 2.22.18
This week there are some crazy fun things in my world this week! Thing One: If at first you don't succeed… find a better decrease! I tried valiantly to work the fancy SSK's that were shared via Mason Dixon Knitting on my Carbeth but, in the end, they just did not work...

Commonsense Must Prevail
I cannot with good conscience participate in something as trivial as Three on Thursday, today. We are 46 days into 2018, just 46 days – 6 and a half weeks – 1 and a half months – and in that short span of time there have been 19 school shootings. That is roughly 1 in...
