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. […]
Another year gone, a new one starting… and I feel like so much time gets lost. I rarely make resolutions for the new year because I feel that by saying them out loud, I tend to jinx them. Instead, I’m making some intentions – and the overall theme is to to some serious self-seeking. For […]
Earlier today I was attempting to update my SSL certificate, and started messing around with other things – and then I deleted the SQL that held all 20 years of blog entries on my blog. (sigh). The good news is that I do have a backup of it – somewhere. The bad news is that […]
’m making a list of books that I’ve been wanting to read – partially to pull them out of Goodreads, partially for an exchange I’m going to be part of themed to Iceland’s wonderful holiday tradition of Jolabokaflod. I’m always up for other suggestions, too. I read a little bit of everything, although this list […]
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. […]
When I was little, I spent a lot of time looking up at the sky. It wasn’t particularly easy to avoid it – I lived in the Big Sky State. And the sky there was massive – so massive that you could see the curve of the Earth at the horizons, especially when out on […]
It’s a simple little word, “thanks.” It’s not said enough in our society – often due to simply being busy, sometimes because it’s routine things that seem so routine that they defy appreciation, and sometimes because the person who should have said it doesn’t care to do so. It’s become so rare in some circles […]
Deep Blue Sea had a bit of an adventure last month. I’d hoped to finish part one completely, but before I could get those other waves done, I had a catastrophe. Or properly spelled, a CAT-astrophe. Notably of the “claiming by cat pee” variety. One of the cats did a drive-by on my stitching bag, […]
