The Knitting Mystery

Hello everyone!  Numbers show that many of you are knitting Mystery Stole 3 - and I am one of them.  With well over 6500 of us knitting along - it gives a whole new meaning to the idea of "Knitting Community".  I have not knit much lace - outside of some socks (which...

Photo Finish!

Photo Finish!

Here are the promised photo's from our Lansing Trek! Here is Lynne and one of the Lansing knitters.  I apologize, I do not remember her name!  Can you see some of the yarny goodness that surrounded us at Woven Arts? Here is Sarah and some of her knitting friends -...

Lansing, FO's, and Friends!

Hello everyone!  How is your summer going?  I hope as well as mine - I spent yesterday in lovely Lansing at Mecca surrounded by a multitude of yarns.  What was I doing there, you ask?  Well, I went over with Lynne and Laura.  Laura was kind enough to drive.  We were...

The Postman Rings Twice!

The Postman Rings Twice!

Hello Everyone! As you may know, work for me has been insanely busy this past week. Therefore, I headed in to work bright and early on Saturday morning! I could not sleep as the looming work was swirling around in my head! So, I headed in to work in the quiet that...

And so it begins….

Hello Everyone!  Well, July has most certainly begun!  Why is it that when it rains, it pours?  No measurable rain as of yet, but it is certainly raining in my life right now!  I am looking for the rainbow desperately!  Work was slow in June - so I put in my request...

Friday, oops, Sunday Follies

Okay, how on earth did June whiz by so quickly? Is anyone else as baffled by this as me? I am stunned that today brings the last working day in June! today is the first day of July! I am even more stunned that Sunday will have July marching in! I did not get this...

Blue Mornings, Blue Days

Hello everyone!  Am I blue?  Nope!  But, the skies here sure are - blue in the morning, blue at noon, and blue as the sun goes down!  All this glorious, cloud-free, weather is causing West Michigan to become a bit parched!  I am watering up a storm - I will post some...

Drive Time

Hello everyone - Sam has 2 more days of driver's training...2 more days!  It will be nice to have this aspect of parenting completed!  It has gotten easier with each child - so I am happy to be finished running back and forth to get him there at the various hours the...

Father's Day

Hello Everyone - Happy Father's Day!  This is an ambiguous day in my house.  I am spending the day with Heidi and Sam - their dad does not think Father's Day is a big deal.  Strange, huh?  Growing up, my dad would not have won any awards for his fathering skills.  I...

Summertime and the livin' is easy?

Summertime and the livin' is easy?

Hello Everyone!  Well, we have survived graduation festivities - barely!  After going over to my ex-husbands home for the day - they had asked for some help with "last minute" food items - I wonder at my level of sanity.  So, I head over to the "Taj Mahal" and what am...

Photographic Friday!

Photographic Friday!

Okay, look out everyone - this is going to be a photo intensive post!  I forgot my camera last night at Knit Knite - but a good time was had by all.  Lots of laughter, new projects cast on, some sharing of UFO's that are becoming FO's!  It seems that not everyone at...

It is Knit Knite Day!

Hold me back - Knit Knite is in a few short hours!  Woot Woot Woot!  Do you all have something you look forward to?  Something you eagerly anticipate?  Somthing that if you miss, your week just does not seem right?  Well, having missed Knit Knite for several weeks due...

I have set my rainbow in the clouds…

I have set my rainbow in the clouds…

Wow, huh? It is amazing to see one rainbow but when two miraculously appear it is awe inspiring!  A mirror image of the first - what a glorious sight.  I watched the cars whiz by as we stood outside and basked in the beauty before our eyes and I wondered how many of...

It is June? Where did May go?

Wow, I am stunned to find June has barged right on in - shooing May right out the door!  I was so enjoying May - and now it's gone for another whole year!!  There were lots of good things about May - tulips blooming, lilacs blooming, trilliums blooming - lots of...

Back to work after a long weekend

Hello from Insanity Central!  Why is it that after a day off work is out of control?  My good intentions and my list for the day are buried somewhere on my desk - if you can find them - pass them back to me, please!  Evidently, all of West Michigan was out looking for...

Sunday mornings are for…

Sunday mornings are for…

Good Morning everyone!  Hopefully I am getting the hang of wordpress - I have some photo's to share with you.  I have been up for a few hours, listening to my iPod and watching Sam sleep on the sofa.  Sleep on the sofa, you ask?  Yep, Sam is absolutely, positively,...

It's Bloomin' at my house!

It's Bloomin' at my house!

I got home last night and what did I find on my doorstep?!? My Bloomin' Feet socks from Gracie!! She knit them out of Colinette Jitterbug - which I have not yet knit with! They are a bit big - but they are awesome! Thanks Gracie - she also included some chocolate for...

Monday Morning Blah's?

Am I the only one who feels like the weekend is a total blur?  Did we have a weekend?  It was hectic - and Heidi had her All City Concert on Sunday afternoon.  It was lovely!  Just amazing - I am stunned at how good she is getting, and how good the groups she plays in...
