  • Dragging

    I have been dragging here lately. I’m about as tired as one can get and still be functional. I have been working to get things straight, books shelved, and we’ve rearranged the library so I have done a good bit of cleaning throughout that process as well. I went home the other night and managed…

  • Preparing for Next Year

    Preparing for Next Year

    It has been a busy, busy summer. When the summer started I thought I would have time to be bored. That was a lie. Between spending time with family, friends, and the class I am taking this summer I have not had nearly enough time to just “hang out”. However, I have begun to plan…

    Motivational Monday–Not Happening Today

    Today is Monday and it hasn’t been motivational.  When I woke up this morning, there was snow on the ground.  It was coming down.  Not much to look at but it was snowing and I wasn’t having it. I’ve gotten some good reading for class done recently.  Not quite enough, but I’m trying. Today was…

Needless…

  • A Weekend of Knitting

    A Weekend of Knitting

    This was a weekend of knitting.  I added some new yarn to my stash, finished a baby blanket that had been a lot of work, and after finishing a weekend’s worth of grad school work I have cast on another project.  The devil dreams on an idle horse, so I need to keep knitting to…

  • Enter Wanda

    Enter Wanda

    I had been thinking about getting Wiggly a new friend.  After the loss of Piggly, she seemed lonely.  It finally felt like time. Enter Wanda.  She’s such a cutie. In addition to a new guinea pig, I have been busy crafting for Bristol’s birthday.  I can’t believe she is going to be two.  I still…
