The Week September 18-24

September 18, 2017 ~ madgeface ~ 10 Comments

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

Last week: Order fromĀ 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

Last week: Decide what's next forĀ Aranami/Imanara. The choices: Work the final row (different from regular rows) in the bright colored yarn.

All stripes would … Continue reading The Week September 4-10

My husband ended up taking him (long story as to why, but Ethan managed to stir up … Continue reading The Week August 28-September 3

Last week: Start chewing soft food. I ate Triscuits, my current food obsession, so I'm pretty much back to all-normal food. Hurray! Get Ethan, middle son, ready to go to his first year of college 8/23. He's not ready, physically packing-wise or mentally. We should have let him take a gap year - he's not … Continue reading The Week August 21-27

The Week August 14-20

August 14, 2017 ~ madgeface ~ 2 Comments

Last week: Saturday morning I have an appointment to have a cracked tooth pulled and an implant started. This is my first extraction since having my wisdom teeth out years ago and I'm a little nervous, but I'm looking forward to not having a tooth that complains about cool breezes, much less hot or cold … Continue reading The Week August 14-20

Vacation and Possible Blogcation

December 19, 2016 ~ madgeface ~ 6 Comments

First of all, I want to apologize for falling behind in reading everyone's blog; I feel like we have an unspoken agreement by following each other and I'm not holding up my end. I hope to get back in the swing of things next year. Next year!?!? Yes. I've mentioned before that we're going to … Continue reading Vacation and Possible Blogcation
