Self-Portriat Tuesday: Wow
Sorry for the lack of post yesterday. As you read this post, I hope you’ll understand why I was a bit preoccupied yesterday.
Everyone has their own interpretation of what their Self-Portrait Tuesday posts will be. Some just post a recent picture, others post older pictures of themselves and then tell the story behind the [...]

Finished Friday: Progress
Well, I don’t have anything finished to share, but I do have lots of progress. But first off, I need to say:

Haha, okay I’ll explain. Chuck is my big brother who I, just last night, gave my blog address to so that he and his wife, Laura, can keep up [...]

Energy
I want to thank everyone for the warm health wishes for my little man yesterday. He is just fine. Truthfully, he probably could have gone to school, but I wanted to make sure that he rested, so I kept him home so he could drive me crazy all day like only he can.
Taking [...]

Scenic Route
As I was driving to work the other day, I became very aware of my surroundings. You see, I’m a city girl. I grew up in Charleston, SC; not the biggest city in the US but definitely monstrous compared to where I live now. I remember when I first moved out here, I hated it. [...]

Couldn’t wait for Friday
Just in time, not a moment too soon. We awoke to temps in the high 30s this morning. I was almost too excited. I just finished Kait’s hat yesterday.
This version has no pigtail holes, but now that I have a better idea of just how big I need to make her hat, I think one [...]

Finished Friday: Rasta baby
When I finished Kaitlin’s pigtail hat, I was so excited. Excited to finally be finished with it; and relieved: one less thing on the needles. I finished it Monday night while watching Heroes (oh yes, I am addicted), so I had to wait until the following morning to try it on her. Um yea. It’s [...]

Anticipation & Preparation
*Disclaimer: This post is filled with Christmas rambling.
Since there is only *gasp* 36 days until we leave for Charleston for Christmas, I’ve decided to get my Christmas knitting in order. I need to figure out what I’m making for my family, the specifics of each project, and which items can be reserved for a [...]

Attn: Mom & Kim
I need a favor. It’s not a life-or-death favor, but it is important to me. You see….Michael’s is having a sale this week, and I did not find out until it was almost too late. Well, it is partially too late because I am a hoarder (of yarn to be more exact). Am I confusing [...]
