Greetings! Today I finally put my sweater on so I could send pictures to the designer for her review. This sweater has been a long time in the works, going back a few years now. Not knowing exactly what I’ve shared thus far, I’ll start at the beginning. The Sock Arms Sweater was designed by […]
Today was a productive day. I started with early morning prayer in bed and followed that with a good Zoom meeting of friends. I made bread and wrote at least twelve sunshine postcards. My sweater blocked out well and I exhaled a sigh of relief. I now have big yarn dreams and goals. I also […]
Today started off with a bang! I ran five miles for the first time in ages. The sun shone and the spring flowers were in bloom. Then I went to a meeting in Brooklyn, New York! Covid has given me to opportunity to Zoom with people I know from other parts of the country. Today […]
There is this funny thing that knitters do when they finish up a project. It’s the bathroom selfie and I find it to be highly unflattering. However, here I am trying to get an idea of the fit on the sweater I have been knitting since quarantine started. I’m smiling but inside I am crying. […]
My day started off great with a happy walk this morning. In the morning light I picked flowers. Some might call them weeds but isn’t it all just a matter of attitude? When I spied this beautiful sidewalk art, my heart felt light and joyful. While I don’t know these neighbors, Bill and I have […]
We had another exciting delivery today from Misfits. In times like these, these boxes offer such promise. They check all my boxes (no pun intended) with their element of surprise, their healthy contents and the trip they save me the trip to the grocery stores for fresh produce. The struggle of trying to find a […]
Mason has a new spin on the essential mask. Our consummate comedian placed a glass lid in front of his face and synched it in place with his hoodie so it was snug. It actually worked in its own way. Today I started my day with a morning run with the bunnies. Bill helped me […]
Our Sunday started with Mass in the living room. While I would not knit at Mass in church, I have been since we started playing the home game. My body assumes a knitting posture when I sit in a chair in front of the TV. I am justifying my actions by working only on charity […]
Today was a good Saturday. The boys slept in late and Bill and I were able to ease into our day with lovely quiet time. Bill tackled the mess of paint cans in the garage, purging the ones that were out of date. Walker went for a bicycle ride on the Evansville greenway. This evening […]
Today on my morning walk/run I spotted these beautiful flowers. Spring is in the air and nature is responding. After cleaning up and having breakfast, I ran to Schnucks and Starbucks and then directly to the food pantry to unload some contributions. When I got home, I found Mason had been recording. He’s in his […]
