....of the month. Don't get too happy, I am not stopping the blog. I am just at the end of Blogtoberfest. Whew, it's been hard. But also it's been easy. When you are actually knitting, there is something to blog about. There won't be

Or your Daypack. Oh wait, it's still wet. Don't bother. Younger's Pack is done, just waiting for it to dry. She loves it! Modifications: No ties, I did a garter stitch flap with buttonhole instead. Flat straps in place of I-Cord, or their

How ever do you want it, how ever do you need it. I loved that song! Still do. Music plays a huge part in my life. Singing, listening, dancing, they all encompass my love of music. I don't dance as much as I used to. I don't get to listen to

Can you really tell me you agree with this plan from the Democrats? Are you really going to stand for this? It's YOUR money. Why would you EVER want to give the Government control of it? I don't care whether you want to ignore Obama's Soc

And proud of it. Knitting has been back to the D'pack for Younger. She mentioned it Friday as she was trying to pack stuff into her first D'pack, shown at left. I made it when she was younger, so amended it to be smaller. I used leftove

Who turned off the heat! We are going to have overnight temps in the low to mid 30's!!! I sat out watching Elder's last softball game today. 66 degrees was the temp, but the actual feel was much colder! We had sun, but the clouds were too big

Thursday Already?

This week is flying by. Likely because we have been busy and I have been sick. And the rest of the week will be as busy as the beginning. But no matter what is on tap for today, I MUST get to the store! We are running out of food. OK, we are not out

That is how much of the stash has now been moved back into my house. The hall closet is now bursting the seams. No more yarn will fit. The rest will have to find a different closet.

I am in Corydon today having a fibery good time. So to make sure I keep the streak alive I have pre-posted today's message. We will resume our regularly schedule posting on Sunday. Possibly a run down of the fun I am having today. OK, just who do

OK, so there was a lot of denial going on too. Princella's Sublime is not so Sublime anymore. It ain't gonna fit! It would fit a preemie, but not a robust baby. Sigh. What to do. This puppy is practically done, only the frill was left. Why di

One thing I have been doing to keep this every day blogging going is writing up posts in advance or the night before. The late evenings have been fairly slow and some days I had enough time to start 2 posts. Then I flesh them out when I have time. So

Even though the day saw a down pour, one we really needed. But during the down pour I was knitting at Border's with the buds. Got the left front of Sublime done. Then headed off to the hair cut, where my niece told me baby might be too big for th
