Time moves slowly, but passes quickly. ~ Alice Walker Wow, what happened to Monday? I knew I had quite a bit on my plate from the day job, but I blinked and the day was gone. I had intended to do a Malabrigo March update, but I just ran out of time. One project is…Read more Where Did Monday Go?

May Day 2020
All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence. ~ Martin Luther King Jr. May 1 is often referred to as May Day or International Workers Day. Since the beginning workers have needed to fight for their rights which included an 8 hour work day. In 2020, we're…Read more May Day 2020
Working from Home: Week 9
The only impossible journey is the one you never begin. ~ Tony Robbins Another week has passed. I'm amazed at how long the days feel. Sure, it helps the days are light longer now here in the PNW as we move to the summer equinox. We are still in shelter in place until May 4.…Read more Working from Home: Week 9
The Last Monday in April
Oh, the lovely fickleness of an April day. ~ W. H. Gibson Spring days in April can have all four seasons mixed in or it can rain at the drop of a hat even when there are now clouds in sight. Normally, I like to do a weekly group shot of all the Malabrigo March…Read more The Last Monday in April

Then I remembered my very first blog post was four years ago today. Having too many projects was my problem then, and I'm still working on it now.…Read more Happy Anniversary
Book Review: Chestnut Man
"There is no greater threat to the critics and cynics and fearmongers than those of us who are willing to fall because we have learned how to rise."

Still Working From Home
Those who endure, conquer. It's another week of working from home. Week seven to be exact. I'm starting to think that this commuting thing was an illusion. Did I really spend hours of my life sitting in traffic? We're still sheltering in place and will be until at least May 4 for now. We're still…Read more Still Working From Home
