Take The Long Way Home

March 14th, 2008 · 6 Comments

Every once in while, when 128 is looking remarkably like a parking lot,

I take the slow boat to China home. For me, that boat is otherwise known as Route 20.
Besides the quaint towns and nice scenery, there’s another good thing about going home that way: It takes me right by a fabulous […]

Welcome!

September 11th, 2007 · 8 Comments

While it may not look all that much different (yet), I’ve taken the plunge and moved into my own place! (don’t forget to update your bookmarks or feeds)
I’m under nobody’s control but my own. This is a good thing for a control freak.
However, it’s gonna be one hell of a learning curve, as I’m […]

California Roll(ing)

July 16th, 2007 · 6 Comments

Not this kind of California Roll:

THIS kind of California Roll:

California Roll(ing), Bolton style.
Luckily, Officer number 616 of the Bolton PD was extremely nice, extremely polite, and did not, most importantly, have his jock in a wad this morning. Not only did I roll right through a stop sign in front of him, I had also […]

Willy-Nilly Knitting

May 10th, 2007 · 4 Comments

Proof of my willy-nilly knitting behavior:
Another pair of socks:

Spunky Eclectic, Maine Sock, Strawberries + Cream colorway, purchased at SPA in Feb.
Pattern from More Sensational Knitted Socks. It’s the traveling vine socks with a garter stitch short row heel and a round toe. Yes, I know that lace and I don’t get along. […]

The Road to Blogging is Paved With Good Intentions

December 12th, 2006 · 3 Comments

Really, I meant to write long before this.
Now it’s been so long, that I’m not even sure where to start.
When all else fails, I write a list. So here goes:
1. There’s been the introduction of some new wool to the stash. There is no honest-to-god proof of it’s existence, but I’ll […]

A Day Late and A Dollar Short

October 26th, 2006 · 6 Comments

Ok-ok. Four days late any many dollars short. But, OH, what a weekend we had!
I’ve finally recovered enough and restored enough normalcy (well, as normal as I’ve ever been) to gather my thoughts, dump the pictures on my memory card, and give you a little Thursday show and tell.
I heard that groan. […]

Looky what I’ve got!

Yup, my Socktoberfest yarn from Scout arrived yesterday! I was so happy to get it that I started winding it off into 2 balls right away!
Thanks, Scout!
The colors are fabulous and I’ve had soooo much trouble deciding on a pattern. I thought I had made a decision […]

This…That…and Some Other Stuff

July 25th, 2006 · 2 Comments

So, I’ve been MIA. Again. Sorry.
So much going on! We got to celebrate Mothers Day (again) last Thursday. Part of my Mother’s Day gift for the mother was a Sox game at Fenway. It rained a bit here back in May, you may have seen a blurb or two on […]

Second Time’s A Charm (I hope)

July 18th, 2006 · 7 Comments

Let’s try this again, shall we?
I moved again since I really have no interest in learning code and html.  As it turns out, Blogger was not a very smart choice for my needs.  Wordpress seems a little more my speed, and so far, just playing around with it this morning, it seems pretty good.
I’ve been a very […]
