Unraveled Wednesday | 6.14.23
Greetings Unravelers and Happy Wednesday! It's that time in the week when we all gather together and share what we are making and (perhaps more importantly!) what we are reading! I have an almost finished Mystery Gnome... that I won't share this week because there are...
Sometimes Monday | 6.12.23
Brings some much needed rain! I am hoping that it washes away much of the pollen that is making me miserable! (as well as bring a bit of life back to our very dead lawn!) We did have a good weekend... there was a happy hour that might have celebrated a certain...
Museum of Me | June 2023
Greetings! This month's exhibit is a study in contrasts... the then and now of my Happy Place! And... has my Happy Place changed over the years. When I was much younger my Happy Place was tied to a physical place... my grandparent's home was at the top of that list......

Welcome June | 6.5.23
Green was the silence, wet was the light, the month of June trembled like a butterfly. ― Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets Welcome June! Although it is so hard to leave May... I am here to embrace every single moment of June... slowly. I want to delight in the tiny...
Unraveled Wednesday | 5.31.23
Greetings Unravelers and Farewell May... sigh. I don't want May to end, it is the loveliest month and I have tried to savor every moment. However, June waits for no one and June does bring a bit of a treat. I have my yarn ready and I am setting aside some time...
Yes! To Authenticity | May 2023
Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It's about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen. ― Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection This month, Ali Edward's team suggested a...
Late May RIFFing | 5.26.23
It has been a week my friends. Hard things... so many hard things. So this LONG weekend my plan is to just be gentle with myself. Rejoicing — This year my poppy feels like it looks like this and while it is not quite that amazing, this morning there are 17 blooms open...
Unraveled Wednesday | 5.24.23
Greetings Unravelers! I hinted on Monday about organizing my in-process knitting and starting a bit of a Summer KAL... you are welcome to join if you wish! I had an overflowing knitting bag, full of in process knits. Some, sadly, have been lingering around for too...
Sometimes Monday | 5.22.23
is a good day to check in with myself... Why? Well it really feels like May is racing by much too quickly! And thanks to our brief, but spectacular, vacation there was no "Welcome May" post and so I am feeling a bit adrift this month. I have accomplished much......
A Gathering of Poetry | 5.18.23
I do not recall when I first stumbled across this Rilke poem... but it has become a frequent guest of my morning meditations as I read it, prayer like, to help me begin my day... I hope this poem finds a spot in your day to lift you as you remind yourself "I am!" Let...
Unraveled Wednesday | 5.17.23
Greetings Unravelers! Happy Wednesday! I should be sock knitting, but my days have been a bit hectic. I am behind on my painting class, I am behind on garden chores, my closet is at the implode stage with winter/spring/summer all in a huge muddle...but what I have...
Museum of Me | May 2023
There is always one moment in childhood when a door opens and lets the future in. — Graham Greene I have spent a good bit of time contemplating this post. Then versus now... 10 year old me versus 62 year old me. I looked for photo's, but... sadly, there are few...
Friday Finds | 5.12.23
Last week's break was such a good thing for me... mentally. I did not blog and I did not spend much time on social media... the total time I spent was picking photos for two IG posts from Erie. Posting and not scrolling seems selfish as I am writing this today. But...
Unraveled Wednesday | 5.10.23
Greetings Unravelers! It felt good to have a bit of a break from all things electronic, although I did miss you all. I am trying to catch up on blog reading... a little bit each day. I should be all caught up soon! My list for the week is looking good... all the...
That Steep Re-entry Curve | 5.8.23
The vacation was... interesting. There was a significant amount of rain and the beginning was very cold. However, I am very happy to report that my Handspun sweater and newly stitched sweatshirts were PERFECT in every way! One of us had plenty of things to occupy...
Erie in 3…2… | 4.28.23

Thursday’s are for Poetry | 4.27.28
It is my favorite day... in my favorite month. The idea that you can carry poems with you... what a delightful thing! Today we are all sharing some poems for your pockets... Today, I am sharing one for all of us for whom sleep is, at times, elusive. Apparently, dear...
