I’ve been doing a little more work in my studio the past several days, can’t believe it’s been three days since I wrote something. I reversed the position of the yarn winder and the swift so it’s more comfortable when I wind off a skein of yarn. I can leave the table out away fromContinue reading “Lost Track of Time”

Sock Yarns: What Wears Best
The heel flaps are finished and I’ve started the cuffs which will continue in Clover Leaf Lace. This is the last skein of semi-solid Fishknits Yarn in my stash that isn’t set aside for another project. I have several skeins set aside for socks for Brad that require more than one skein for his sizeContinue reading “Sock Yarns: What Wears Best”
Smart Phones and Old Friends
I haven’t had a call on my cell phone in weeks then out of the blue it rang while I was sorting laundry. I didn’t recognize the number but it was a knitting buddy I haven’t talked to in ages. She also has a new ‘smart’ phone and a new number. We used to meetContinue reading “Smart Phones and Old Friends”
Clean Air! No Howling Wind!
Finally! After a night of thunderstorms, over five inches of rain and flash flooding across the road and our property, we have a reasonable, cool breeze with sunny skies and fresh, clean air! It’s a bit too breezy to have both doors open but it makes a huge difference with the front door open. IContinue reading “Clean Air! No Howling Wind!”
Wind, Allergies, And A Change of Plans
I am so done with wind. There is so much stuff in the air and Brad and I both are battling allergies. Our M.D. called in a steroid dose pack for each of us to stop this crud before it gets worse. Neither of us can afford to end up with respiratory infections. I hadContinue reading “Wind, Allergies, And A Change of Plans”
End of the Month, End of the Day
It’s after 10:00 pm, last day of March. The wildlife was out at dusk and I can hear the barred owls now. I’ve been busy all day and just realized I hadn’t posted anything. I finished my first purple variegated washcloth as well as “Separation of Power” by Vince Flynn. The secret is out andContinue reading “End of the Month, End of the Day”
Got My Groove Back
Yesterday afternoon I began to feel human again. Danged sinus infection! I’ve managed to stay out of the doctor’s office and treat it with homeopathics and OTC sinus medication. I’m getting quite a stack of washcloths made while reading at the same time. I tried working on my socks while reading but it’s a bitContinue reading “Got My Groove Back”
Peaceful Day at Home
I spent some time this afternoon and tidied my workroom, put away the clutter, and made more room for my table and the recliner. Now I can get out of the living room occasionally and work on my knitting in here. And I can pull the floor inkle loom up to the straight-back chair andContinue reading “Peaceful Day at Home”
This Might Work
We need a few things that our Denison Albertson’s and Walmart Supercenter don’t have so I used the Walmart app on my new phone and did my online shopping with the Walmart Neighborhood Market across the street from our chiropractor’s office. We will pick up our order after our appointments on Thursday. Ta Da! ItContinue reading “This Might Work”
Back to Work
After taking the weekend off from posting on my blog I am back to work. There’s not been much going on, just puttering around the house and doing a little cooking. I finished the last of the variegated brown/white yarn on the cone and managed a total of four face cloths for Brad’s bath withContinue reading “Back to Work”
