    Reference I’ll admit it. I can be very willful and independent. Tell me I can’t do something, and I will show you that I can. Tell me I have to do something, I will show you that I do not have to do it. This is especially true of my crafts. A lot of times,…

    Reference Thanks for all of the b-day wishes. This past weekend was great. Busy, but great. Saturday, we had a party at our house to celebrate my 40th with friends and family.

    Reference Well, I am still having picture problems at the moment, which is a shame, because I have stuff to show you! Party. Finished socks. The start of pants. And yet, I can’t show it to you. You see, my host had server problems a couple weeks ago, causing them to transfer my account to…

    Reference Well, first Opal had me as an honorable mention, and then Bonnie and Alice actually gave me the award outright, so I guess I should pass it along.

    Reference Since finishing the socks for my father, I have been feeling very restless. I can’t really decide what to do next. I have a lot of ideas for new projects, but am not sure whether to start any of them because of other things that are going on outside of my fiber world that…

    I may be crazy. Reference So yesterday, I was in Columbia at lunchtime and stop at the cafe in Borders to get a sandwich for lunch. Who is there? Some of the ladies from the Meetup! (I am working under the assumption that they had actually gone home Wednesday night and came back on Monday.…

    Reference I went to my second Meetup last night at the Columbia Borders. There was a good bit of excitement, as the Meetup is now an official event at the store (“just like Harry Potter!”) and tables are reserved for the group. I brought my Koi Pond sock to work on, as well as Mr.…
