We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough. ~ Helen Keller It's been awhile since I've done a Malabrigo March update. I've made slow, but steady progress and knit a few other items along the way. I like to knit gifts, and while I do keep a decent…Read more June’s MM20 Progress

The Return of The Premier League
The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning. ~ Pele Like all other sporting events and major concerts, The Premier League was on hold to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Last week, matches resumed being played with no fans and even limited personal on hand due to social distancing. LFC could…Read more The Return of The Premier League
Friday Night Double Feature
"There's no place like home." ~ The Wizard of Oz After Clint Eastwood movies we started watching Hong Kong Action movies. These are fantastic, but a bit violent. The shoot outs and combat is much more theatrical, but there is so much collateral damage. In the current world climate, it's hard to watch so many…Read more Friday Night Double Feature
A Wee Update
Where ever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. ~ Anthony D'Angelo It's been awhile since I've posted or done any updates. This week I was reminded why I haven't gardened much in the past. Between the day job, life, the kitties and knitting, I just didn't have much down…Read more A Wee Update
Working from Home: Week 15
Never, never, never give up. ~ Winston Churchill This is the first full week of June and yet this month seems almost over. Perhaps that's because I've adjusted to working from home and my ability to actually complete my to do list! It's fantastic being able to do some cooking while keeping up on my…Read more Working from Home: Week 15
Three Skeins Full
Knitting not only relaxes me, it also brings a feeling of being at home. ~ Magdalena Neuner It's been awhile since I've posted about my various blanket clubs. I thought this week, I would change it up from the MM20 update. (Okay, the real reason is it gives me another week to make some progress…Read more Three Skeins Full
A Better Tomorrow
"They may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!" ~ Braveheart Action movies are great in every culture. A Better Tomorrow is an outstanding Hong Kong action film. While it may seem like a hooky 80's action flick, it's number two on the 100 Best Chinese Motion Pictures. This movie may have boxy…Read more A Better Tomorrow
Book Challenge: The Library Book
There is some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for. ~ J.R.R. Tolkien Two Towers It probably comes as no surprise, the British Hubby and I are library people. I love making use of all the free resources a library has to offer. I loved reading as a child. Libraries helped me realize…Read more Book Challenge: The Library Book
Working from Home: Week 14
Do not let spacious plans for a new world divert your energies from saving what is left of the old. ~ Winston Churchill Wow, what a week! Some places now have curfews this week to discourage rioting and looters. I fully support peaceful protests, but violence is not the answer. Our stay at home orders…Read more Working from Home: Week 14
The Dead Pool
"You forgot your fortune cookie! It says.... You're shit outta luck!" Dirty Harry The Dead Pool Friday night we concluded our tribute to the Dirty Harry Series with The Dead Pool. This was the fifth and final Dirty Harry movie. It was the shortest, and I must say my least favorite. It was a classic…Read more The Dead Pool
