Today I used something that I purchased a bit ago and hadn’t had a need to use. I live in Iowa where these aren’t considered…..unfashionable, like they are in other places. I got myself a pair of Berne women’s insulated overalls. Not sexy, but I was toasty when I was outside shoveling the walk:-) I …
So, I was asked to share what I got at Sticks and Sting this year. I assure you it is modest in the most! The yellow yarn on the left is a custom dyed skein of Superwash Merino 3 ply yarn that came with my goodie bag (but that I forgot to photograph!) by Dreams …
I was in South Carolina for a week for training for work. While I was gone, Red got her first ride in a car and trip to the vet. My mom and dad took her in a pet carrier which I really wish that I had pictures of. But hey, you gotta do what you …
I took Malcolm and Micheal down to the creek today for their walk. Meara and Weezy were originally excited by the idea but quickly changed their minds when they understood just how cold the wind was.

So I have started my spinning again. I couldn’t for the first few weeks that I was here because the wheel was in transport. Then once it got here I needed to find the rest of the bits of it as they were packed away in the bewilderingly labeled boxes. By the time that I …

Last week we got our first snow here. We had missed getting any white stuff until this point with folks both East and West of us getting slammed pretty good while we still had lovely weather. Like our neighbors to both directions, our snow was very wet and heavy. It did cause some issues in …
you get snow. Lots of it. This morning I awoke to an odd scraping sound from outside the window of my friend Joel’s flat (God, I sound more English when I write than when I speak [oh and Darren, not one person {and most everybody I’ve been around this trip has known me since I …
So, it’s been a few weeks since I last wrote for you my faithful readers. I’m sure that you have also been busy with the holiday season so I hope that you don’t hold it against me too terribly much. I’ve had an interesting holiday season working in the department store. All I can say …
Not a lot of time to post a full, long story. Just wanted to let you all know how things are flowing in Sarah land. It is nearly 1 in the morning. The moving crew is supposed to arrive sometime between 9 and 10 in the morning, in other words in about 8 hours or …
