Welcome to My Blog
Here is a masonry blog layout with no sidebarWhen Saturday is Thursday
Hello Blog Friends! Please don't fall off your chairs, but yes, it seems that I can find the time to post more than once a month!! Will wonders never cease. What I do wish is that on my days off I would not have a gajillion bloglines to catch up on. Oy. I am woefully...
When it rains it pours…
...or, does anyone have the instructions for building an ark??? Yes, we got about 11inches of rain in 24 hours so along with much of the midwest I have a flood again in my "garden level". I am thinking it needs to become the "pool level" and soon. This time the water...
Hello, It's me!
No, I am not dead or wounded nor have I left the planet. I am just really trying to find balance with work and life. Unfortunately, the computer is loosing the battle. As you all know, I was gainfully unemployed for almost 6 months - a long time to live on little....
This is not a lazy Monday!
I don't have to go to work today, but that does not eliminate work from the agenda today. I have work to do and lots of it! I am heading off to the post office to send some packages out. I am finishing up the never-ending laundry. And, I am casting on sock #2 for...
Just a bit of destashing…
Spring cleaning has hit and I am doing a bit of destashing! Prices include US shipping. If you need shipping outside of the US, email me and we can work something out. If you want more than one, I will re figure your shipping cost. Paypal preferred. The fiber is well...
It's a knitting kind of day
Hello everyone! Yesterday started out as a day off, but I got called in to work from 3PM to 7PM. Not too bad at all, especially when I could sit and knit! Not too bad at all. And, since I am trying to finish my May Day Swap Socks - 4 hours of knitting time with no...
A day off!
Or, why are there only 24 hours in a day? It seems to me that when a person works 12 hour days that their day's off should be a bit longer than 24 hours! Here I am, on my day off, and I find myself doing laundry, cleaning the house (don't have a panic attack, gentle...
When you journey to Mecca you may find Goddesses
Hello everyone! What an amazing weekend! From start to finish it was just amazing! From Friday night with The Yarn Harlot to Sunday with Amy and Jillian and a bit of work in between it rocked! But, I have to tell you that Sunday was simply beyond belief! Ann,...
This post is brought to you by the letter "G"
Good Day everyone! It has been a great weekend! And, it all began with a road trip to A2 to see The Yarn Harlot in all her humorous glory! That's right! Erica, Blogless-Linda, Sandy-who-needs-to-get-a-blog, and I all headed off together! The drive was most...
We're off to see The Harlot…
Yes, that is right. There is a group of us heading over to A2 to spend the evening with fellow knitters and The Yarn Harlot! The library there is hosting an event for her. On the work front, I have completed my orientation and Saturday I am picking up my first extra...
Long Walks, Long Draw, and Good Friends
Hello everyone! I have officially made it through my first week of work! Whew! I still have volumes to learn but Week One was a pleasant surprise. I survived orientation and I am holding my own in training on my unit. I have a wonderful teacher. She is patient and...
Day One and Day Two
Hello everyone from The Home of the Employed! I have survived Day One and the onslaught of HR representatives, Security representatives, Benefits representatives, Infectious Control representatives (she was at least funny!), and Don't Hurt Your Back - Use Good Body...
…while visions of fiber danced in my head.
Gentle readers, it was The Most Amazing And Spectacular Saturday - The Most Amazing! At dawn I was awake (after barely sleeping all night) to head out to meet Lisa. We were off watching the sunrise as we raced over to Howell Michigan. What, you ask, is in Howell that...
Sweets for the Sweet!
I am a participant in Lynne's Special Swap. And, we are in the midst of The Sweet Swap Round! I am lucky, Kimberly is my recipient. She is dear to my heart as she was my recipient in one of the Secret Swap rounds. That is how I got to know her and her fabulous family....
F is for…
Friday! Specifically, my final Friday of unemployment! As of Monday we will no longer be the "Home of the Gainfully Unemployed". Huge sigh of relief here, I can most certainly tell you! It is also the final Friday of March - and here in West Michigan Frosty Winter is...
How can it be Thursday already???
Panic is surely setting in here as the days of unemployment draw to a close. How the heck can it be Thursday already???? I wonder if I find a horn and march around outside blowing it loudly that I can stop time for a bit! Well, it worked for Joshua in Jericho - a...
Manic Monday
Hello Everyone. There is great excitement here at The Home For The Unemployed! This is the last Monday of unemployment! Can you hardly stand it?!? That's right, next week Monday I will be sitting in orientation at my new job! So, this week I will be a woman on a...
