It's cold. It's windy. I'm typing as fast as I can as I wait for the light to change.
Interests: I write. I knit. I write some more. I go outside and see one child or another reading a book and I go back to my desk and write again.

Becca, I'm so glad you posted this. WDDC is a down-to-earth community concern. Whenever I donate I can see a direct effect on the community. Extra diapers in my shopping cart this season and the warmest of holidays to you.
Baby, it's cold outside: Share some warmth
[Cross-posted (or will be) at Berkeleyside.com. You, my few but loyal readers, are probably aware that the Women's Daytime Drop-in Center is where I have taught knitting to clients for a couple of years, and the beneficiary of Kate's & my learn-to-knit class last spring.] Right now, when we're...
I'm sorry I missed this, Ms. B. I love their shop. Throw in a few cupcakes and the visit would be perfect.
Don't faint or nothin'
... but I blogged. Like a real post, where I had to string together more than a few sentences and used photos and everything. Just not here--it's over here. I visited Kristine and Adrienne and Wondermike at A Verb for Keeping Warm yesterday (they called out the Cupkates truck--how could I not?...
Good heavens., giving blood seems to have inspired you!
Yes, you can too knit a place setting.
Some knitters seem to think there is no occasion for which a knitted item is an inappropriate gift. I am definitely one of those knitters. I can't help myself. Sure, I can be snarky about charity knitting--but then I find myself knitting baby things for new parents whom I know only slightly. Is...
I was very sad to hear that your wonderful orange boy is gone. He was in good company with you and family. Be well.

Goodbye, my boy. I'll miss your companionship, love, and lap-warming.
I think you deserve the St Francis Merit Badge for this post. It was that heartfelt.
So, the animal situation.
To cut to the chase, for now we are six. There are twice as many quadrupeds as bipeds living here, and that doesn't count the feral family in the back yard. And as I mentioned, it's been a fairly eventful three months; here's a (not so) brief history: Go Josie, Go! Alpha dog Josie has arthri...
Good heavens you're back! I was worried that the Cat Boordhi experience had swamped you.
Happy to hear the knitting event snagged some extra resources!
Hello again.
It is totally possible to have writer's block for, like, three months, and a lot has happened, so I have lots to catch you up on. When I was last here Kate and I were getting ready for the benefit knitting party for the Women's Daytime Drop-in Center, which went off successfully. We launched ...
My "Cat" book is open on my lap and I mnemonicing like nobody's business. At least I think that's what I'm doing. Twee it be, but I've cast-on and I am determined!
Cat Bordhi to the rescue. Again.
I have to give props to Cat Bordhi. I'm rather abashed to admit that I do so grudgingly, because that seems snotty, but it's the truth. I really didn't care for "Socks Soar on Two Circs," and I think I wrote a cranky blog post about it at the time. Yet despite my complaints, I managed to learn ...
