October Road This is the absolutely BEST time of the year – the BEST! I’m feeling like I have a little more energy – found myself dancing around the living room with my kids yesterday and felt like a different person!

SE02 What is it about abbreviations? I did the “medium” route at Stitches East this year – I only stayed over one night, took 2 classes and attended the banquet. I didn’t stay at the Baddison – I stayed at the McIntosh Inn down the street (half the price, a nicer room and a much…
Where the Elite Meet to Eat After reading about Beth’s pre-delivery Birth Day Shower, and all the gifts from Ellen, Theresa (who, BTW, is also doing a dual design with Amy for Knitty) and hosted by Carolyn (aka Dangerous Chunky) I decided that I’d have my very OWN Meet & Greet with a fellow blogger!…

On Strike … until someone posts a comment. So there. Burn, baby, burn!

Time to change the depends! I wandered over to Knitting Curmodgeon’s site – LOVE that wench – and found a link to the Dialectizer. What a figgin’ hoot! I dialectized my last post – and here’s a portion of it some different vernaculars: Redneck: Knittin’ he’ps me reckon better, ah can corncentrate mo’e clearly when…
