Unraveled Wednesday | 7.20.22
Greetings, Gentle Unravelers! And a happy Wednesday to you all! Apparently hot hot weather means lots and lots of knitting time! (Truth, I spent little time outside after 9am each day... early morning weeding only!) I have some momentous knitting achievements this...

...brings rain! And that, my friends, is a very, very good thing! My focus is still on keeping things simple this week, despite an incredibly unsimple event that might occur this week... Jury Duty. I got the summons a couple of months ago and this is the week when I...
a RIFF on TGIF | 7.15.22
Greetings and Happy Friday! This week I am doing a TGIF-like post... sort of. I think you will get it once we get started! Some weeks Friday feels like, well... just another day in the week. This week, it feels very much like a Friday... and that, my friends, is a...
Unraveled Wednesday | 7.13.22
Greetings, Unravelers! The making this week feels slow... just lots of round and round and round knitting. But all that round and round knitting means that there have been inches added! Yet I happily remind myself that I am not a "finished project every week kind of...
Sometimes Monday | 7.11.22
One of the things that I am focusing on this month is to fill my days with simple things... which is not as easy as it sounds. Life is complicated... hard... painful... and these days, it seems that there is a daily new calamity to keep me anchored in that space. Yet...
Museum of Me | July 2022
Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving. ― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full...
Unraveled Wednesday | 7.6.22
Greetings Unravelers! (I am not mentioning any of the shootings that happened over the holiday weekend but that does not mean they are not on my mind. They are. I just don't have any words to express my thoughts how is it possible that we are on the 187th day of 2022...
Sometimes Monday | 7.4.22
Is still the weekend! And what could be better than that?! If the blooms on my tomato plants are an indicator of fruit volume... it looks to be a banner year! I am practicing patience waiting for said fruit to develop. But the plants are lush, green and growing like...
A bit of whimsy | 7.1.22
Hello, July. I am so glad I am filling my days with some whimsy so I can avoid thinking about the looming July holiday that this year won't feel like something to celebrate at all. Who knows what women can be when they are finally free to be themselves. ― Betty...
Unraveled Wednesday | 6.29.22
Ooo, the making this week! I have one finished pair of Anakin Skywalk!)er socks for Sam! I finished the second sock up yesterday. The heel... oh my! I like it! I did some short rows before knitting the heel decreases. It worked so well! (and I hope it will fit Sam...
Filling my days… | June 2022
This month kind of felt like a cheater month... I carried May along into June and did no new work on my word. (although the end of the month saw me full of FRAGE thank you, Nadia Bolz-Weber for defining my feelings so eloquently.) Knowing that was coming made the...
A Bit of Whimsy | 6.24.22
The wee break I took last week inspired a new way of thinking about blogging...much needed inspiration. Welcome to A Bit of Whimsy! I am a person who is incredibly serious. Joking around is not easy for me and I don't spend enough (any?) time creatively playing....

Someone needs your actions to inspire [their] actions. Never forget, your little broken cake is someone’s daily meal! Care to share you[r] little cake! ― Israelmore Ayivor One thing that I truly love about this blogging community is how we inspire each other......
Sometimes Monday | 6.20.21
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...
Sometimes Monday | 6.6.22
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...
