Hey all – long time no write! Summer sucked me in and spit me back out again – I can’t believe September is already here – packing lunches and homework again. Neither of these two activities rates high on my list of favourties due to the amount of knitting time lost during a [...]
I am…well…ridiculously wrecked. See the date? That is the day I uploaded the photos to blogger…as opposed to TODAY which is the 18th of August.
The new job is kicking me in the rear. I can’t explain why. It isn’t far off what I was doing before…just…more.
Anyway – here is the loveliest [...]

I need a favour folks. Leanne’s gallbladder is rebelling and wants to separate earlier than expected. She is back in the hospital and will likely have surgery in the next couple of days. If you could go over to her blog and wish her well in the comments there, I’m sure she’ll [...]
Hey blogland people!
One week until glorious 2-week holiday. I haven’t had an actual vacation since last August. I think my colleagues are lucky their heads are still attached to their bodies cause there. are. days.
Anyway – I’m wrapping up next to nothing at work. The new positon started on June 30 [...]
Dearest Stephanie,
You don’t know me. You may or may not read my blog. Still, I need to apologize for a terrible terrible thing.
It started innocently enough with some really nice sock yarn. It was Fleece Artist Casbah (have you tried it? Very nice. Highly recommended.). I was a bit worried [...]
