Today was a very stitch-filled day, completely focused on Garden Sampler. I made great progress and I think that I might be able to get this completed tomorrow – or at the very latest on Monday. I have a little text left, a bird in the lower corner, and then some fill-in flowers, and I’m done. […]
Another Round Robin has just closed for signups, and now it’s time to start thinking about what I’ll send around. My photos below are about a round out of date… I seem to have misplaced my latest updates on them. But you’ll get the general idea. I had an initial decision to send Walk in […]
Honesty, the b.s. from Globat’s moves to new servers just finally pushed me into fixing things.

I’d say not much has happened recently, but it has been a busy couple weeks. Just a blur of a couple weeks. The bad stuff: – Mom was laid off last Friday. It wasn’t completely unexpected, though. She works in real estate, and the company had been stripping off personnel all year. I left a […]
The first stage of planting is now in the ground – my herb garden is built (as you can see in the photo), and my veggies are now in their earthboxes. This year’s herbs include: thyme, sage, 4 types of basil, cilantro, dill, mint, lavender, garlic chives, and lemon balm (aka “melissa”). Vegetables include 3 […]
