Didn’t realize it, but yesterday’s post was number 100!  Not bad, considering I figured I’d get bored with this blog and stop posting to it after a week (this was attempt 4 or 5 at starting a blog).  I was going to do a contest, but with the move still not completed, it probably isn’t [...]

We’re at Brian’s parents’ house borrowing their wifi for a few minutes, and I figured I’d drop in for a quick update. Kitties are all good, and so are the dogs. The temperatures here have dropped a few degrees and we had a lovely thunderstorm last night. Ares woke me up when [...]

Yes, I’m still here!  Chaos and insanity abound, but things are going well.  Except we don’t have a place to live yet.  Hard to move if you have nowhere to move into! If you live in the Grand Junction area and are willing to rent to nice people with a lot of pets, let me [...]

Ok, it’s time for someone to volunteer to climb up on my roof and uncover the air conditioner.  It is officially hot.  WAY too hot.  It’s not extreme or anything, it only got into the 80’s today… but after that really cold winter I am seriously unprepared for this.
I hope it rains tonight.  That will [...]

The weather has finally turned warm. The trees are growing leaves, the grass has turned from brown to green, and the dandelions are in bloom. I know, they’re a weed… but I’ve always loved them. I’ve never had an issue with golden flowers in my yard. I’m sure I’ve had neighbors [...]

Or, what to knit when you’re stuck in a car for eleven hours.
I brought some cotton yarn with me on our trip, figuring I’d knit up a coaster on the way. Just for something to keep my hands busy on the road, you know?

Little did I know that I’d be in the truck for [...]

Well, that wasn’t so bad.. once you get the hang of entrelac, it’s pretty easy. I’m going to pick out some new yarn and make another one. This time, I think I’ll go with something a bit more subdued. This one is BRIGHT! My sweetie says it looks like it’s [...]

Just a few quick pics so you can see what I get to put up with today.

Moving right along on my first entrelac pattern.. needed a change up from the baby blanket, so I decided to give Quant a try. It took me a little while to get the hang of it (I started with some scrap yarn to see what it was like), but I’m moving right along now. [...]

More snow! Well, I’m feeling better, just in time to welcome some more snow. Only about an inch today, so maybe the roads will clear so I don’t slide all over the place.
Headed off to the LYS to knit and chat.. got a bit more done on Jonathan’s Big Bad Baby Blanket. [...]
