Covert Blogging

AG and I returned home last night and we had my mother in tow.  Mom did quite well with the flying, changing planes, etc. but she had made comments prior to our trip stating that she didn’t think she needed "babysitting" when it came to flying to Washington.  Five minutes after arriving in the Atlanta […]

What Did I Do Today?

Well, let’s see….. I ran around like a mad man this morning getting the house ready to show. I took a gazillion packages to the post office.   Yay! AG and I enjoyed some fine dining at BK Lounge. Packed our suitcases because AG and I are going to North Carolina for the weekend to see […]

60 Things

I kinda fell off the face of the earth, didn’t I?  Nothing wrong.  No trauma.  Just life.  So what’s been going on around here?  Well, let’s see…… 1. Lost my knitting mojo. 2. Tried to keep knitting anyway. 3.  Watched three episodes of 24 in one evening.  This is never wise if you have a […]

Fiber Related Endeavors

I’ve been slacking off with the knitting.  Lost my mojo.  I’m hoping it will return soon.  I have done some spinning.  I spun the 50/50 blend of camel and silk and plied it (2 ply).  I put it in the sink today for a good soak and I took a photo.  However, the camera apparently […]

New Vocabulary

Tomorrow will be one month since we (I’ve) moved here.  In that time we’ve experienced quite a lot, learned a lot, etc.  One thing that has changed is that we have learned a new vocabulary either through learning a new word or hearing and seeing phrases we never had a use for. Here’s the list […]

House Photos

I did take a few pictures of the house today.  It seems a bit odd to look at them.  Dana and I have lived in Craftsman style houses our entire married life so this feels a bit unfamiliar beyond the fact that its a totally new place, far away, etc.  But, I’m adjusting.  The above […]

Freezing, Frozen, Numb

So the wind is blowing, at times, at 70 MPH.  No biggie.  I drove to work once in a hurricane so I figured this was going to be just fine.  But, the idea of going near the Sound or Seattle did give me pause.  That said, I didn’t want to stay in the house all […]
