Autumn is a second spring where every leaf is a flower. ~ Albert Camus The Fall Equinox was officially on Saturday. I noticed that today the sunrise and sunset in the PNW is exactly 12 hours apart. After today, the days are officially longer than the nights. One of my dear followers, informed me that…Read more Fall Equinox

Virgo Birthdays
Virgos are far from boring; they just choose to be discrete with people they barely know. I'm a Virgo. That means my birthday falls somewhere between August 22 and September 22. I'll give you a little hint: I've already celebrated my name day and I'm a very strong Virgo. (The British Hubby calls me opinionated…Read more Virgo Birthdays
The Early Bird Catches the Dragonfly Larvae
We make our own monsters, then fear them for what they show us about ourselves. ~ Mike Carey Two months ago, the British Hubby and I started watching the Godzilla movies. It was the last Friday the 13th. Godzilla has become part of our Friday Night Celebration. Two weeks ago, we watched Ghidorah, the Three…Read more The Early Bird Catches the Dragonfly Larvae
Island Time
Take every chance you get in life cause some things only happen once. I'm finally getting around to post about our time at Lummi Island. We stayed at a quaint beach house that was within walking distance to the beach. It had no clocks at all. It was fantastic to not pay attention to what…Read more Island Time
Midweek Check In
If you're going through hell, keep going. ~ Winston Churchill I was hoping today's blog post would be about out time this weekend on Lummi Island. Sadly, the past two days I've worked an unreasonable amount of hours at the day job. Unfortunately, I'm not sure when my workload will ease up. This equates to…Read more Midweek Check In

The only difference between an experienced knitter and new knitter is that the experienced knitter makes bigger mistakes faster. Be bold; there are no terrible consequences in knitting. ~ Stephanie Pearl-McPhee It's the end of the month. Normally, I would post a photo of all the projects I've finished this month. Can you guess how…Read more TDS: Stage Three
Conspiracy Thursday: Chemtrails
You simply cannot invent any conspiracy theory so ridiculous and obviously satirical that some people somewhere don't already believe it. ~ Robert Anton Wilson A few weeks ago, the British Hubby and I started listening to Conspiracy Theories on our no tv Thursday nights. 2018 is the year of Intrigue, Conspiracies and World Domination. This…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Chemtrails
Team Work Saves the Day
I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse. ~ Florence Nightingale Last week we got off track with our Godzilla movies. We should have watched Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster. This movie was produced in 1964 and was the first Godzilla movie in color. It's the fifth movie in the Godzilla anthology. The…Read more Team Work Saves the Day
Signs of Autumn
Each moment of the year has its own beauty. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson This past weekend, there was a brief reprieve from the heat and smokey conditions. I took advantage of the lovely weather to have a morning stroll with a Stitch Sprouts knitting chum and check out a yarn store. The trail we were…Read more Signs of Autumn
Conspiracy Thursday: Princess Diana
"Trust no one." The X-Files For the past year, the British Hubby and I have instituted a No TV Thursday. It's so easy to zone out in front of the boob tube. You've probably noticed the British Hubby and I love a good movie. Growing up before internet, smart phones and social media, I remember…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Princess Diana
