I pondered doing a "what I did on my blog-cation" last week... and I will share, soon. One thing I did not do until late last week was open my laptop. Nope, I did not look at it once and it felt so good. I realized that in not looking at my laptop also increased not...

Summer is the annual permission slip to be lazy. To do nothing and have it count for something. To lie in the grass and count the stars. To sit on a branch and study the clouds. — Regina Brett Summer solstice officially arrives tomorrow and though it felt like we did...
Museum of Me – The Outdoor Games Edition | June 2022
Greetings dear museum visitors! For those of you expecting a visit to The Great Locker Room of Outside Games Memories... I am sorry, but there just is not that much sports participation in wee Kat's life. In fact, there almost is not enough even share. But... if you...
Unraveled Wednesday | 6.8.22
Not much making progress this week... a messenger bag strap, a beard, and an arm completed. I also spent some brain bandwidth on a sock. I could find no clear directions on how to determine how long to continue knitting the foot of a sock with a "planned" afterthought...

Allergies to dust and grain, maladies, remedies and still these allergies remain. — Paul Simon Spring is ... wonderful ... well, except for that little allergy thing that happens every year. I have some generally mild allergies to tree pollen and usually I can count...
When words fail me | 6.3.22
Oof..these numbers are so troubling. I hope we have reached the tipping point and that change will happen. In these troubled times I am so thankful for poetry. I read poetry every single day but recently I have spent even more of my day immersed in poetry and one poem...

The making over the past two weeks has been varied! Some Gnome Knitting means that I have finished my May Mystery Gnome and I love him! I also added some inches to the Sock for Sam. First Finish is Gnocchi! And I have some Gnome deets to share with you all: 1. The...
Filling Up | May 2022
This month was a month full of "ah-ha" moments. So many. In fact, this month was so full, I even found a theme song... listen if you like and see what I discovered this month! The song starts at 1:40... (but if you listen to the bit of the talk before the song I found...

Bring poppies for a weary mind That saddens in a senseless din. — William Winter One of the most fleeting of things... my poppies... and yet, perhaps I love them so much because they are so fleeting. One thing I hope is not fleeting... our outrage at the gun violence...
When Knitting Updates Are Never The Answer
Hello, Gentle Readers. I had a completely different post planned for today and then the world fell apart. I am sorry, but I feel publishing that post is rather tone deaf in light of what happened at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas yesterday. Hug your loved...

The best laid plans of bloggers... sigh. I had planned on giving you all a May Word update today. But Carolyn posted this weekend that word update would be next Monday. Okay... that works, because it gives me a few more days to contemplate Four Thousand Weeks, which I...
Friday Finds | 5.20.22
It's been a week, hasn't it? I have tried and tried to make sense of the senseless and I can find no simple answers... no complicated answers either. My heart is heavy for the citizens of Buffalo and for the Black/Brown/Indigenous American/LGBTQIA+/Non-Christian...

The making this week has been of the "small" variety but I wanted to take a moment to identify the photos for you all from Monday's post: 1. A chive blossom 2. an African violet 3. Bee balm and 4. the Tri-colored birch beech (thank you, Kym) in my back yard. Monday...
Randomly on Monday | 5.16.22
A bit of a random brain dump this morning... sorry about that. This morning I am a bit "foggy" because I got another COVID booster shot yesterday. I had thought to wait till the fall but COVID numbers have been on a sharp incline here in Allegheny County so I went and...

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. ― Charles W. Eliot Greetings, Gentle Readers! This month is all about reading...specifically Your favorite book as a...

Tegna!! She is finished. She just needs a bit of a spa treatment and a quick tumble in the dryer and she will be camera ready! I spent some time earlier this year contemplating my wardrobe needs... and I have one sweater I really like to wear but the neckline bothers...
Sometimes Monday | 5.9.22
...is for sharing! Gentle Readers, do you have a spouse who is an IG Junkie? Steve must send me at least 4 "reels" a day... and most of them are about food... specifically IG Recipes. Some weeks ago he sent me a recipe for baked feta, and I was so curious as to why he...
