Watch my life unravel...
|
Pre-Breakfast! I’ve been so busy the last few days! I know the freelance job is just a few days a month, but it’s these few days this month, and they just happened to coincide with our road trip to Lindsay to visit my sister and brother-in-law at their trailer. (We had a lovely time talking […] This extraordinary gift started with Rachael. She’s a California blogger, knitter and novelist, and a lovely person to boot. Rachael put the wheels in motion in May, shortly after I was diagnosed with cancer. Grace – who doesn’t yet have a blog but who will be a phenomenal blogger when she does – offered […] Duncan says hi to all his friends out there in Blogland. JUMBO This one’s for Arden, who was surprised that the wheelchair in yesterday’s picture wasn’t occupied. (Duncan likes to live with a chair for a few hours before he claims it as his own.) Duncan gives his benediction And this is the first knitting project I’ve […] My internet connection through Sympatico has been down a lot over the past few days.

We have non-stop, overlapping, frequently obscure, outdoor festivals throughout all the months with tolerable weather. You name it, we’ve got a festival for it. This weekend there were at least two that I know of: The Victoria Day Festival […] Remember the baby snake charmer sweater that I managed to cut a hole into just as I was putting the finishing touches on it? Well. Word spread like wildfire and within moments of returning from her holidays, my knitting guru was at my desk, surveying the disaster area . Then she took a day or […] You won’t believe how close to done this sweater was before I completely screwed it up. Seriously. I was sewing on the last button. I was about 8 seconds from finishing the sweater. Earlier today I was telling someone about this baby sweater and I mentioned that I wasn’t entirely happy with my colour choices. […] Ever since the Yarn Harlot sent the “Knitting Mafia” over here, I’ve been feeling a bit guilty for not blogging often enough about knitting. But in order to blog about knitting more, I kind of have to knit more. So I’ve been knitting up a storm lately to assauge my guilt over not blogging about […] |
