Knitting, candles and wine … Oh my!
Lost heat out in the studio. Darn too-small propane tank anyway! I’ve talked to DH about getting a real (house sized) one out there … maybe now is the time. It’s a balmy 44 degrees in there right now. Without water (drained the pipes in preparation for Snowmageddon). Of course! I have 3 custom orders …
Stepping into the light and embracing the day
We lost power on Saturday. Repair estimate had us getting electricity on Christmas night at 1130pm. So, I had started to wrap my head around embracing what I would officially call the ‘Dark Christmas’ … I was excited about the prospect of ZERO cooking (watch out Taco Bell, here we come). But, unlike many of …
Surrounded by cuteness …
News from the den: All are doing great. Eyes and ears are open, we’re moving into gruel, and starting to cruise around in the whelping box. We had a photo-shoot, and while there are so many adorable pictures to choose from … I chose these. I love the James Brown-esque-ness of the last photo. Can’t …
Gathering as we grow …
WWU: Someone decided it would be a good idea to have me as acting charge nurse this past weekend … WTH?!? Such a silly notion! But we got through, and outside of a huge THANK YOU to my co-workers, I have nothing more to report. [My therapist thinks just a few more sessions required to …
Darn!
Darn that Pinterest, anyway … It’s devil’s-spawn, I tell you. Stumbled on a knitting pattern that caught my eye … so, now I’m knitting it. Here’s the creator’s pattern link, and here’s what I’ve got going so far: If you’re an avid knitter – you’ll catch my mistake early on, but if not (like DH) …
Ahhhh … Sunshine and Solitude
DH is out manning the tractor, cutting hay … The kids are in school, for a few more days before they wrap up another academic year – and Summer break begins … I can hear the bickering now. But for today, it’s just me and the dogs, as we sit, enjoying the sunshine, quiet and …
Adele + Chinese Food = Good Medicine
Have spent the past week slowly trying to work through a huge family mess (BTW – have I cursed the Evil Biologic recently? Yes? … Okay, well, here’s another – %@#^*!!!) … Thus, not much going on in the studio. Had it not been for a glass order, I may have avoided it all week. (And …
The needles are hot – the studio is warm …
Overall, it’s a pretty cool place to be right now … The weekend is over(!), and while no one in my ‘lil ER had to endure green vomit on St Patty’s day – there were some interesting intoxicants. I, however, was in the heart ‘wing’ – ruling out one MI after another … I finished …
Slowly sliding back into the groove …
WWU: The very large (not full any longer, but still full enough to affect my county) moon did not disappoint – busy, crazy and … difficult. But over(!) – so, moving on … I spent about an hour after getting home from work Monday morning, just sitting in the studio, getting back into the swing …
