Blogathon ‘2005 Begins

Well, I’m here. That’s about all I can say at this hour (if you know me at _all_ ). I’m not a coffee drinker, and I’m NOT a morning person! Hoooooooo Hoooooooooooo! Yep, that’s me. I had _such_ a hard time falling asleep. Finally did, _a couple of hours ago!_ So, if you wanna pitch…

I should be sleeping

In anticipation of the “Blogathon”:http://www.blogathon.org/blogathon.php?campaign&id=168 tomorrow I _should_ be sleeping, but alas, not me. Not the night owl. The insomniac. My sleeping patterns are so horrible and unpredictable and affected by so many things. Well, anyhoo, just in case you didn’t know, you can go “HERE”:http://www.blogathon.org/blogathon.php?campaign&id=168 and click on REGISTER and sign-in to make a…

Blogathon ‘2005

_Stay Up Late_ p>. _Make a Difference_ I’ve been yearning to do something, to take the focus from my own self-pity, count my blessings, give back, _SOMETHING._ So I’ve decided, albeit last minute, to take the plunge, and in honor of my “Grammie”:http://starzabove.com/2003/01/24/she-has-her-wings I’m participating in “Blogathon ’2005″:http://www.blogathon.org/blogathon.php?campaign&id=168 and all funds I raise will go…

Return To Flight

Two places I’m watching this morning are “NASA live TV”:http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html which offers Windows Media Player and Real Player, thanks to Yahoo and Akamai, and “Live Launch Countdown Coverage”:http://www.nasa.gov/returntoflight/launch/launch-vlcc.html This page is updated every few minutes so periodic refreshes are neccessary. This is exciting stuff!

What am I doing?

Well this is what we did the other day: “The Animal Planet Expo”:http://animal.discovery.com/features/expo/what.html Some cool stuff, but a lot of advertising for the Animal Planet television network, which was wasted on us, since the kids already watch it.

Knot Without My Knitting

I won! A week or so ago, late at night, I was perusing the ‘net, looking for some inspiration for a new design that I am working on when I cam across the fact that “Caitlyn Knits”:http://caitlynknits.blogspot.com/ was having a little contest to help rename her blog. So, I threw out a few (looking back,…

Busy, Bissee, Busy

Work projects all over the place – what a mess! Visit from wonderful family of friends that we haven’t seen in 5 years, from California! House cleaning, rearranging, but at least it’s somewhat clean. HOT HOT HOT! Heat indexes in the 100 degree range, ugh! All this equals very little knitting – and again, all…
