Blog Intrepid

Ha, I imagine no one even visits any more… I’ve made a May Resolution: Blog more. I’ll probably end up writing about even more random stuff than I used to (yeah… sorry about that. Sorta.). I’ve recently been diagnosed gluten intolerant, so there is loads of fun to blather about with trying to go gluten [...]

You would think that with the amount of chaos I seem to attract that I’d always have plenty to write about and entertain my huge audience of blog stalkers But, no, most days it’s tough to update my Facebook status – it’s all just same ol’ same ol’, yanno? So. Switzerland rocked. Yeah, imagine that? [...]

I made a flip remark on one of my knitting lists that I’d love it if some generous patron would send me over to Switzerland so I can see the Sion and Chur relic bags (see Post #82 to help understand my infatuation). Well, then I find out that between the family company and a [...]

So, yesterday I get home from work and there is a phone call from my neighbor, who lives at 9*8 MyStreet and he has a package for me (I live at a different 9*8 MyStreet). Apparently FedEx did a ding-and-dash at his place, without giving him a chance to redirect them. So Mr. Wonderful Neighbor [...]

I remember as a little girl – 10 or so – sitting with my grandmother and knitting needles that just seemed huge and this great green wool, trying to figure out how to knit. Of course, knitting Just. Wasn’t. Cool., so I annoyed grandma for a while and then ran off to do something else, [...]
