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

Malabrigo March Monday
Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome. ~ Arthur Ashe Happy Monday! I missed doing a Malabrigo March update last week. To be honest, I really got into my marathon blanket projects and didn't have much to report on the Malabrigo March front. I've been attempting…Read more Malabrigo March Monday
TP-91
"Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." The Godfather, Part II. Imagine if aliens could invade without being seen. Imagine there's a formula that allows your mind to travel through time and space while your body stayed safely on earth through the power of concentration or a force called TP-91. Now imagine that aliens…Read more TP-91
The Last Monday of MM20
By being yourself, you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before. ~ Edwin Elliot It's March 30. That means I have less than 48 hours to cast on any last minute Malabrigo March projects! For awhile it was looking like I was going to run out of available needles, but then…Read more The Last Monday of MM20
Malabrigo March?
Gratitude turns what we have into enough. ~ Aesop I love Malabrigo March. This year I've had a hard time finding my knitting mojo in relation to Malabrigo March. I still love Malabrigo March, but it felt wrong to celebrate as the pandemic spreads and people are sheltering in place. This morning I realized it's…Read more Malabrigo March?
Snow Day?
Silently, like thoughts that come and go, the snowflakes fall, each one a gem. ~William Hamilton Gibson A week has passed, and all the snow around my neighborhood is gone. It's lovely when the snow is fresh and pristine, but once it's covered in car fumes it starts looking a bit sad. It's hard to…Read more Snow Day?
Friday Night Heist
"Elementary, my dear Watson." ~ The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1939. The snow has mostly melted. Okay, we actually still have quite a bit left, but the road conditions have cleared up enough to travel into work. Commuting sure does cut down on my knitting and snuggling time. Snow or no snow Friday night typically…Read more Friday Night Heist
Snow Day: The Second
When snow falls, nature listens. There is something about snow that quiets the entire world. The morning commute conditions were actually worse than yesterday's. Not surprising since it's about 10 degrees colder than yesterday. Eek, it's cold! Today's view looks pretty similar to yesterday's. Does it look any colder? The view out the front window…Read more Snow Day: The Second
Snow Day: The First
When it snows you have two choices: shovel or make snow angels. It's the first snow day of 2020. It's rare my house has snow in January. Yes, it's winter and it's cold, but normally the snow level stays at a higher elevation. Traditionally, we've not been house bound until February, but an arctic storm…Read more Snow Day: The First
Friday Night Blockbuster
"Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." The Wizard of Oz The first full week of 2020 is in the books.
