Help for Haiti, Some News, and Some Blues

It’s been a while since I’ve last blogged and figured I should give you all an update on what’s happening around here.

Help for Haiti – What happened in Haiti on Jan 12th was awful. People all over the world are joining together in order to provide some relief for those in need. Knitters are no [...]

Holidays are Over!

And I can’t say I’m not excited for that fact. Phew! I didn’t think I’d be that busy this holiday season, but I ended up being so busy that I neglected my blog, and also my knitting in the process. There were family get-togethers, lots of food, presents to buy, and you know… everything that [...]

I got more bird [...]

Hard at Work

I got a lot accomplished today. I woke up at around 9:30am and didnt even have a chance to drink some morning coffee before we were out the door. Took my Mom shopping to Wal Mart, Michaels, PetSmart, and the local mall in order to finish her Xmas shopping. She even got a present for [...]

Progress!

I finally have something to show you as far as my next pattern is concerned. I’m still not sure on a name but I’m open to suggestions as long as the name has January in it, in order to continue with the monthly theme. I knit like crazy, and pondered last night and I came [...]

Back to Knitting!

It took 45 minutes to trim Annabels nails yesterday. As you can see, I am blogging so she didn’t eat me, but came close a few times. Nail trimming with this dog is completely ridiculous and yesterday was no exception. We had to pin her down while she writhed and barked and snarled and basically [...]
