Ramblings of a Geeky Witch
I haven’t kept up with my end-of-month stitching updates as I’d hoped for the past couple of months. While I work to sort out projects for status updates, I figured I’d do some life ones too. It’s been quite a while since I’ve had a non-stitchy blog post. 🙂 Max is a few days away […]
Considering how wild April was around here… I got quite a bit done on my projects! I’m happy. April’s short-short version, in no order of priority, are: And onto the April stitchy updates. The theme of this month was “frogging and move forward.” Oh, so much miscounting that had to be fixed to get anywhere. […]
The past seven days have been a heck of a rollercoaster here in Measi Land. I celebrated my 48th turn around the sun on Wednesday with a wonderfully relaxing day off. Then it quickly turned sad, as one of my Stitching Sisters of New England friends, Carol, passed away early Saturday morning. She was older […]
Taking a little time during my lunch break to catch up on some general writing, blogging, mini-project updates. I hope if you’re reading this that you’re doing well, and that your loved ones are doing well too. Things here are pretty good. We have a few friends we’re worried about, who are dealing with positive […]
Since I was little, I’ve played a careful balance between two things – my natural introvert instincts, and the ability (although exhausting) to be social when needed. I’m able to play the butterfly when I need to. Put me in a writing environment like my blog or penpalling letters? I can go on for days. […]
Apparently the posts I thought I had saved to publish while I was away not only didn’t publish, but I somehow didn’t save them. Boo. So much for the blogging every day this month thing. (Ah well.) Good news: my laptop is fixed! Apparently it was the video card. The good news was that said […]
For some reason, life has been absolutely non-stop since about mid-November. I’m thankful I haven’t had any five-day work weeks since Christmas week because honestly, I desperately need the longer weekends right now purely for recovery. This week was no different in the insanity, although it took a different twist. Erich’s job was transferred to […]
Thanks to a long delay on Amtrak last week, I made a good amount of progress on my oldest UFO – Cats on a Staircase. Everything in blue and the beginning of that cat tail with the hanging thread was completed this month. It’s probably my largest block of solid progress on the piece in, well, years. […]
Erich and I are packing up this morning to head to my mom’s for the weekend. While I celebrate Yule religiously, my celebrations are really based on family traditions more than anything… so I’ll be celebrating Yule via Christmas. It’s honestly all the connection to family in my opinion, and differences in faith should never […]
First off – Belinda of Blue Ribbon Designs, who taught my class at Stitcher’s Hideaway a few weeks back, has a gorgeous stitchy giveaway happening on her blog. Absolutely beautiful little sewing companions. So hurry over there and enter to win one! It’s been a wild couple of weeks – lots of get-togethers for birthdays, stitching, […]
