The weekend is almost gone
Tweet The weekend is almost gone and I want a few more days of it. Yesterday I put my new pedals on my bike. Actually I was able to put one pedal on and the other wasn’t about to go on without a fight. So instead of stripping all the threads on the crank, I [...]
Goodbye coffee swap coffee, we had a good time
Tweet Today I tapped into the last bit of coffee that I got from Carrie in the Winter Wonderland Coffee Swap. I’ll miss you special coffee… You woke me up every mornin’ and got me going on the days when all I wanted to do was sleep. And quite frankly, I should have paid attention [...]

Did you just call me a S.L.U.T.?
Tweet Tomorrow is the opening day of the SLUT – South Lake Union Trolley. Honestly, I’m excited because I can now get one of these shirts.

The trip home, Thanksgiving, Grandma's bday and the nasty head cold
Tweet The trip home was great. It’s always nice to go back home. But within a day or two, I got a nasty head cold. I was hoping it would be gone by the time the time I got on the plane to come back to Seattle, but it wasn’t. The flights back to Seattle [...]
knitting and whatnot
Tweet Last night I met up with a group of local knitters. It was a lot of fun and a huge learning experience for me. They were all more experienced knitters than I am. Grandma, your off the hook. I save all my questions for the ladies in our knitting group I’m getting all my [...]
It's beginning to look a lot like… rain
Tweet what did you expect, I live in Seattle. We’re now getting into the rainy season. I like to call it the Pacific Northwest Monsoon season. I really enjoy feeling damp all winter long.

Let the games begin!
Tweet I just got a nice little comment from my mysterious Winter Wonderland Coffee swap partner. I’m very excited… Just in case they’re reading this – again, I love diamonds, emeralds, rubies… ok, just kidding. Actually if it’s caffeinated and there’s a little yarn (on the side of course) too, I’m thrilled! I’ve also decided [...]
