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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

May’s Malabrigo March Update
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. ~ Thomas Edison I always think I have more knitting time than I actually have. Some how the time I spend knitting goes into this crafting time warp continuum where time virtually stands still…Read more May’s Malabrigo March Update

Live for the moments you can't put into words. The British Hubby and I often do a Ural weekend getaway on this holiday weekend in the States.
