Hitting The Road
It's been almost two years since Kym & I met in Nashville and drove to Florence, AL, to attend a 3-Day Alabama Chanin Workshop. We've been talking since January* of meeting up again, and in April, we started to firm up plans. Lemme tell ya, it would be a whole lot easier to do this if it wasn't ...
Ooooo. That sounds wonderful! Thanks for the tip.

Fixing Feet problems...
If you have ever had your foot in a cast, you know just how awful your feet can be when it's taken off. I know myself, I have never seen the kind of peeling that I saw on my foot when the doctor removed my final bandages. Ey yi yi, I was a bit horrified!. Normally in the winter my feet like ...
So glad you're feeling better, Kim. And that yarn? Oh, wow! Just gorgeous! XO

Farwell January ~ Hello February..
After completion Come new beginnings. To gain strength, Renew the root. Deng Ming~Dao I've been pretty quiet all around on Social Media these last months. I'm not going to lie, January was a rough month dealing with a foot healing from bunion surgery and 2 rounds of Colitis, one of which resu...
It's a lovely color! But . . . if you can't wear it, why knit it? (I also have no problem putting aside a book I don't like!) XO

One More Thing To Push Through...
It's been a while since I have worked on this sweater. I'm thinking it's been close to a year, so when I picked it up today wanting to finish up the lingering projects I have sitting around, I found that it is just too big for me. It's a combination of having lost 10 pounds over the last 2...
Those are the best kinds of words . . . those that choose YOU. May you find JOY in every day, Kim. XO

Happy New Year!
This is the moment of embarking. All auspicious signs are in place. In the beginning, all things are hopeful. We prepare ourselves to start anew. Though we may be intent on the magnificent journey ahead, all things are contained in this first moment; our optimism, our faith, our resolution, ...
Ugh. It is entirely too soon for the snowflakes. :-( (Although we apparently had them, too -- up north where our cabin is located.)

Weekend Adventure
It's amazing how fast a weekend flies by isn't it? Last week I told you that Ken reached a milestone birthday, so I wanted to make this weekend one he could tuck away in his memory book...and we certainly crammed a lot into a 1/2 days! We got a late start because I had the rest of the yarn ...
Good for you, Kim! Those sound like great, positive moves! BRAVO. Last November, I decided to see if I could break my Facebook "addiction" . . . and while it was super hard for the first 2 days, I quickly found I didn't miss it at all. I like Instagram - because it's more "controlled" and not nearly as much of a time-suck for me (although don't get me started on the rabbit hole that is Pinterest. . . ). Good luck to you.
I, too, am wishing I could move my blog from Typepad. (I'd like to have a different format for my blog; I haven't had any issue with comments lately.) What's stopping me? Why . . . Typepad doesn't play nice with other platforms, so the transfer is not easy (and in some cases, impossible.) I'll be eager to see what you do! XO

Brand New Shoes...
You will be seeing a lot more of me here in my effort to spend less time on facebook, which tends to be a huge time suck for me. With the upcoming elections I'm sure the political fury will kick up which is another good reason to back away and concentrate on the positive things in my life. S...
Such a nice way to collect the days, Honoré.

September! Ah, September: here. Gone. in a flash. I generally begin each month with all sorts of energy and plans, ideas; truth be told, I suspect it could all be gathered under the umbrella of wishes...and we all know that nursery rhyme: if wishes were horses... Be that as it m...

Rainy Days and Mondays...
Another Monday driving in the rain... seems to be getting to be a habit... On my way to my quilting group meeting this morning , I’d driven about 2 miles when I realized I’d left my wallet (aka money and driver’s license) home... I drove very cautiously home to retrieve said missing items....

I have to say that the weather this summer up here in the mountains hasn't been the best. So much more humidity then we are used to and a lot of murky days. Our first few days on the Cape were pretty much the same. Cloudy, hot and humid, but we decided to make the best of it and visit place...

What a lovely morning -- thanks for sharing. I just love that yellow door. I think about painting ours yellow, too. (Right now it's red . . . so I think that particular painting chore might be rather challenging; but still. . . ) It's so nice to have such a pleasant summer morning to enjoy. :-)
