Last week: Walk instead of going back to bed after I finish my morning coffee. Done for today - I took Lil for a walk on the W&OD trail (a rail trail) that runs through my neighborhood and all the way into DC. Done. Lil and I have walked every day since last Monday. Somedays … Continue reading The Week October 23-29
The Week October 16-22
So last week I flaked out on everything and spent a good part of the week in bed, either reading (I finished a bad steampunk novel and started The Essex Serpent) or sleeping. Spinzilla was fun but, as usual, I went all-in and by Saturday was ready for it to be over. My hip flexors … Continue reading The Week October 16-22
The Week October 2-8
Last week: Take fancy final project photos of Inamara, which involves getting Mr. Q & his photog skills. Ugh - I still need to do this. Carry on with (S)urge, the new shawl. Making progress!

Wordless Wednesdays: Pigeon Roof Studios Spin
The Week September 18-24
Last week: Weave in the ends of Aranami/Imanara (there are lots even though I've been weaving in as I go), and wash & block, then sniff & squish. All done! Choose and start a new knitting project. Will it be a blanket to give away or will it be a shawl to keep? I have … Continue reading The Week September 18-24
TBT: Joyful Girl Knitters
I love this photo! These girls are clearly enjoying themselves and each other's company. It's also a rare photo of black girls knitting, not something often photographed or depicted.
The Week September 11-17
Last week: Order from Campus Cookies for Ethan for his birthday Thursday. Eat more of Ky's cake to celebrate in Ethan's absence. Our first birthday apart and his 18th. The cookies & balloons were a grand success - Ethan, his roommate and the guys on his hall feasted. I think it was a pretty good birthday … Continue reading The Week September 11-17
