p{float:right;padding:10px}. Times are a’changin’. Some good things are coming to an end….and some new ones are on the horizon. It’s these transitional, ambivalent times that really try me. I’ve been told that I’m not really a pessimist nor an optimist, but more of a realist. Sometimes that’s not so much fun. I also tend to…
All posts in yarn along
Bro flies out and I spin around

Yeah, that is me – geekess (it was either that or geekette). I have been spinning more lately, especially on drop spindles. p{float:left}. !http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3161/2557383197_488ee45ca3_m.jpg!:http://www.flickr.com/photos/starzabove/2557383197/ p{clear:both;text-align:center}.

Leapin’ in here
I know, _groan_ , pun intended. Happy Leap Year Day! I didn’t know it was a holiday, but oh well, we can use all of the holidays we can get, right? We’ve had lots of excitement going on around here. We’ve had ice storms, freezing temps, sickness, and almost had a baby yesterday! One of…
I just moved down the cyber street
Whew! That was a lesson or twelve. I’ve moved servers, (if anyone even noticed and I finally got it all fixed up tonight. I feel like I’ve come back home after being lost for awhile out in the middle of the unknown. Technology – it’s a blessing and a curse on me, to be sure.…
“Speaking” of decorating footballs
I survived my first public speaking engagement. I was *SO* freaked out about it. I am amazed I made it there. I am just not the type to stand up in front of even a small crowd of 60 people and talk. No, not me. But I did it, and I survived. I wasn’t booed,…
Tis Winter – a season to knit
And I have been knitting, even if it’s not as much as I would like. Running the shop is SO MUCH MORE than just sitting around knitting, crocheting and spinning! There’s been a little bit of a stitch pattern taught to me by a very sweet lady named Claudia….. it’s oh, so very European! And…
Our Second to Last Move is Pretty Much Done
There are a few boxes here and there yet to unpack and we have a bit more to do to finish up at the old house and get it on the market, but we are just about done. We need to wrap it up here at the new house, since we’ll be hosting for Thanksgiving…
I Hereby Give Myself Permission
