Argh!

Ever have those moments where you know you are done for? Things just aren't going to work out the way you planned. You think if you just go faster, stay up later, or hold your mouth in the right way it will all come right in the end. It won't

A feeling of listlessness and dissatisfaction arising from a lack of occupation or excitement.What causes it, really? And why does it only apply to certain areas of my life. One area is blogging right now. Is it because I have nothing exciting to sha
Life's Ups and Downs
Wednesday, 23 April 2008 3:48 P GMT-06
We all have them. Seems the downs are hitting my knitting group hard lately. Family issues, school issues, health issues and other issues, sure make for lively discussions at knitting. And when I hear what others are going through, my troubles seem s
OK, I'm ready for it to be over!

Another "aftershock", this one a 4.5 again. This one was only about 20 seconds worth. Over and done by the time it woke me up and I got to the hallway. Younger met me there, no one else moved. Hubster says he felt it, but didn't realize
Hubster Rocked My World This Morning
Friday, 18 April 2008 9:24 A GMT-06
Don't worry, this is a PG rated blog. At 4:37 this morning Hubster yelled "Chris, get up, grab the girls". As I jumped out of bed I heard a loud rumble and could feel the earth shaking. The girls came running from their rooms, we grabbe
When it rains.....
Wednesday, 16 April 2008 6:39 A GMT-06
....it pours! Is it shameful to be glad it isn't raining on me? The past 2 weeks, even 2 months, haven't been good for my knitting group. One ended up in the hospital Friday and is just now being released tomorrow. She was having dizziness an
I met the deadline!

No IRS* agents will be coming for me. I am cast on in time to be legal. I didn't start last night. By the time I finished laundry, after the computer suck time, I was too tired to start lace! So I waited until today. And what a day it has been! I
The deadline is tomorrow

Are you ready? It's time to start your Swallowtail! If you don't have your pattern, check out the free download at Knitting Daily. I have my yarn wound, a size 6 needle, and the pattern ready. The color is really much deeper than shown. And t
My Non Greencastle trip
Saturday, 12 April 2008 8:32 P GMT-06
The fates conspired to keep me from Greencastle this year. many had planned to go, but then they started dropping like flies. Then I wimped out on the lone remaining knit bud. Instead we met up with 2 other friends and had lunch and then went to knit
Sorry I have been out
Friday, 11 April 2008 2:47 P GMT-06
Blogging has just been so low on the totem pole. Most of the time is spent keeping the house picked up, laundry done and dishes done. Leaves little time for other things. Online time has been taken up with Ravelry and Text Twist. Truly addicting game
I'm sorry, but this is just wrong
Monday, 7 April 2008 8:42 A GMT-06
Sometimes I wonder what our country is coming to. I believe everyone has a right to think/act how they want, but if you hate our country so much, leave! I am disgusted that people have learned to be contemptuous of respect and honor. You have the ri
Just call me A.R.
Sunday, 6 April 2008 6:45 P GMT-06
It's not for Alice Roberts. Nor, Allison Radcliffe. No, it stands for An*l Retentive. Hubster just calls me O.C.D. And that does not stand for Occasional Childish Diva. Nope, not me. This is why he has given me a new nickname. Yes, that is a col
Bonehead, my new name
Tuesday, 1 April 2008 8:47 P GMT-06
Not much knitting getting done. I did finish up some leaves I will be felting with the flower I am making. The Bonehead name has nothing to do with that. It's the fact I ran out of gas in the new car yesterday. Evidently the miles to empty estima
