So, as I told many of you, it seems I can no longer get on my blog and Ravelry during work hours so I have been dreadfully remiss in writing. Since I last posted, I finished and mailed Hadley’s Baby Surprise Jacket and hat:
I have word that they have arrived in Portland and will be [...]

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
1. Whole bean or ground? Whole bean is great – I’ve got a grinder – but if there’s something cool pre-ground I’m game!
2. Fully-loaded or decaf? High octane all the way!
3. Regular or flavored? Either
4. How do you drink your coffee? Light and sweet – like me. I go full-fat on the dairy [...]

Note: This was written on Friday but somehow ended up in drafts instead of being published.
This time last year Joe and I were not speaking. It was a very sad time and I was trying to make myself scarce but I was sick of sitting home alone all the time. One day I was sitting [...]

Day 10 – The heat is still on. I’m beginning to wonder whether this will ever end. I’ve called the plumber more times than I care to mention, ditto on the condo association. I made dinner for my beloved boyfriend last night and almost got heat stroke. My patience is being severely tested. I have tried to [...]

A problem – ha! We have a few problems… last week, affectionately named “Cluster Fuck Week” boasted a cracked windshield, a malfunctioning zone valve (a.k.a. heat blasting in my apartment) and a broken cell phone. The windshield was fixed, the phone replaced and I’m still waiting to cease living in Dante’s Inferno (can you hear the [...]

How I feel today:
I think that about sums it up.
I wish I had great UFO pictures for you but nothing has been moving particularly quickly. I had to frog part of the Baby Surprise Jacket because I f’ed it up which is pretty hard to do. That will teach me to knit while fighting with [...]

Ok, so I’ve obviously been a terrible correspondant. Initially I just took a break during my Labor Day weekend vacay but then became ill immediately thereafter which required me to run around to doctors and, unfortunately, not share my “What I Knitted on My Vacation” photos. Her Royal Physician claims we are lacking in potassium [...]
