Back to the grind… It’s been hard getting back into my working mode. Answering the emails is a full time job in itself! Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE hearing from knitters, etc., but there’s also so much garbage to wade through. Yikes! The previously mentioned screw up sweater is apparently not included in…

Life as we know it… The kids are back in school – Hannah caught the bus as we caught up with our neighbors… Max is back in his school today, and so happy to see his friends! Haircut for the boys this afternoon, life is grand. Spending a good deal of time updating my online…
Oh, man… I had my first Apple Martini last night. We had a fabulous New Years’ Eve (perhaps a little TOO fabulous) and I’m spending most of the day sleeping it off. No knitting today. Here’s my resolution. No more Apple Martinis. Burn, baby, burn!
I love South Orange I love New Jersey. I love my neighborhood, I love my friends – I love the people I do and don’t know on my street and I love my little village. I love walking around on sidewalks under trees to our little downtown area where I can shop, have a cup…
We’re HOME! There truly is no place like home! We’re so glad to be back – although we had a great time, we were anxious to be back in our own little beds. The trip back was pretty uneventful, minimal bickering between the kids, the doggie was a dream and our overnight stay in Knoxville…
Great Date! Gerry and I had a TERRIFIC date on Monday Night at the Greenville Bar & Grill ( 2821 Greenville Ave./ Dallas, Tx / 214-823-6691) The food was terrific (Salmon for G, Chicken Fried Steak for me) great beer, good coffee and they gave us a wonderful dessert to help us celebrate. If you…
Dallas is odd I lived here for a year in the mid-80’s – it’s still as odd as ever. I should say at this point that I’m the flaming liberal in my family, moved to NYC, married a Jew – all the things my family never intended for me. Ironically, it is because I was…
Slug I am a slug. Slug, slug, slug. Just kind of sitting around doing not much. I should have been working on some designs, I should have been swatching – I did at least chart an intarsia pattern yesterday, but being out of my own environment makes me – well – sluggish! We moved to…
BIG D little a, double l a s We’re here!!! After driving for three days, here we are at last! First of all, if you’re thinking of visiting Unclaimed Baggage in Scottsboro, AL… DON’T BOTHER! The stuff was thrift store quality at mall prices – a total letdown! To be honest, I wasn’t expecting new…
Just Peachy We knew we were getting close to Atlanta when we saw a giant peach watertower – the kids were thrilled and insist that James is living in it (Did I mention that last Halloween Max was James and Hannah was Miss Spider from James and the Giant Peach? Gerry ‘s in love with…
