Oh, Monday | 3.25.19

Oh, Monday | 3.25.19

Sometimes there are no words for Monday, but there are plenty of words to read. It appears I am not the only one anticipating Ali Smith's Spring! And, because you really can never have enough Ali Smith… here is some more! I love these little interviews that The...

TGI-Fotograph Friday | 3.22.19

TGI-Fotograph Friday | 3.22.19

This has been a very mixed bag week, but it is finally Friday, so I am setting the week aside and making room for the weekend! Tracking my brackets! This might be my best start of any bracket I have done in years! And, believe me there have been years that my bracket...

Three on Thursday | 3.21.19

I am joining with Carole to share some things today! Thing One: I believe in the "three strikes and you are out" theory. Because, generally if after three tries of doing something one way unsuccessfully, continued tries in the same manner means you are heading down...

Unraveled Wednesday | 3.20.19

Unraveled Wednesday | 3.20.19

A very short post this week... I seem to be at the "in between stage" at lots of things! Yes, I spent some of yesterday seaming up Deschain. Thank you, Mary for the fantastic suggestion on how to make the yarn work - splitting it worked perfectly!! Today is all about...

TGIF | 3.15.19

TGIF | 3.15.19

Welcome to the "Beware the ides of March" edition of TGIF! It has been a week and a half (or at least it certainly feels that way to me!) I guess a week with meetings, vet appointments, and an inordinate amount of phone calls will do that for you! But it is finally...

Three on Thursday | 3.14.19

I am joining with Carole to share some right now things! Happy Pi(e) Day. Sadly, no pie baking here today. But that does not mean there is a shortage of good things! Thing One: All.Of.This. Thing Two: Because of Thing One, I am reminded that I am in dire need of a...

Unraveled Wednesday | 3.13.19

Tegna has finally become a practically mindless knit! Yes, the lace work is done, and I have reached the stockinette portion. Woo! I have also started my second skein of yarn! Although, it has not had much attention this week as I thought a new spring/summer sweater...

Sometimes Monday | 3.11.19

Sometimes Monday | 3.11.19

Begin with Words of Now and hot coffee:   Lenten devotions. Meditation. Sherman snuggles. Stuffy nose. Journaling. Monday list making. Clear skies. Bird cacophonies. Audio-listening. Bed stripping. Laundry. Square cutting. Grocery list making. Meeting...

TGIF | 3.8.19

TGIF | 3.8.19

Happy Friday all – and yes, Happy indeed. It was a full week and Steve has an off site meeting this morning and then he is off for the remainder of the day – so a day off, without having to take a day off! That is a nice bonus! My plans for the day include heading off...

Three on Thursday | 3.7.19

I am joining Carole today to share some things from my world this week! Sometimes it feels like the world is listening and places in your pathway the things you are seeking! This was one of those weeks! Thing One: I have been pondering what to do with all my digital...

Unraveled Wednesday | 3.6.19

I confess that I love this very lion-like start to March. I am hopeful that means it might have a lamb-like ending! But, really… this weather is entirely normal, amirite? (And, this was from yesterday - I have not seen today's numbers yet... but Sunday!! What?!) My...

Looking back: February

Looking back: February

February is merely as long as is needed to pass the time until March. ~J.R. Stockton It has been a long time since I have done any monthly reviews here, but I am  trying a  new format to go with my "new to me" way to save something special each...

Sometimes Monday | 3.4.19

Sometimes Monday | 3.4.19

Looks like the return of winter! The bitter cold and inches of snow are messing with my springtime yearning. Although this wintry blast might be the perfect backdrop to my latest listen – South by Sir Ernest Shackleton – it is a riveting listen! And despite all this...

Fiber Friday | 3.1.19

Fiber Friday | 3.1.19

It seems that March is off to a roaring start! We got about 5 inches of snow overnight, with more in the forecast for the weekend. Although, all this snow has not hampered the bird's enthusiasm as they were singing loud and long this morning! I have not done a Fiber...

Three on Thursday | 2.28.19

Three on Thursday | 2.28.19

I am joining with Carole and the Three on Thursday gang today! And, though it hardly seems possible – February is OVER! I am so ready for March! And, March? One of my favorite months from the Chicken Soup with Rice by Maurice Sendak! Bring on those blow-y winds,...

Unraveled Wednesday | 2.27.19

Unraveled Wednesday | 2.27.19

It has been a very good week for knitting – I have finished my "Shawl of Many Colors" and I simply love it! It was worth every stitch. And, the weather forecast tells me that I will be able to wear it a couple of times this week, so yay!! And, it is substantial - I...

Focusing on Me | 2.26.19

Focusing on Me | 2.26.19

Dear Kat, This Focus Journey has truly shed a beacon of light on how much of your time you spend dwelling in the past or worrying about what is to come. And, this month you have tried so hard to stay with "what lies within" me – in the here and now. I know it has not...
