My February
February was jam packed with stuff. I celebrated my 11th wedding anniversary, saw the beginning of a new year (Chinese New Year….year of the tiger, MY year!). I went to my first burlesque show in Asbury Park, baked cupcakes for and attended a good friend’s baby shower. Oh, and left the country [...]

New machine
I had a really rough day Friday. Medical things that got me really frustrated. So, to make myself feel a little better, I went to Joann’s, conveniently located across the way from the medical building I was supposed to be at. I purchased only some thread and some remnants, and a yard [...]

Post Mother’s Day post
My boys and I went to play mini-golf in the beautiful weather yesterday. Afterwards (hubby won, but I got a hole in one!), we took a drive, and ended up here with lunch at a tiki bar listening to live music before hitting the roller coaster. Perfect mother’s day. When we headed [...]

Tis the season
I think the lack of mojo was short lived. I still am not knitting as much as I should or would like (Killer Bunnies and friends have taken up time….both of which I am thankful and grateful for), but I’ve got to get a move on things. The to do list as of [...]

A pick me up post
I’m down in the dumps. I feel blah. Maybe because the 4 day weekend is coming to a close and the next time I’m off of work is a month away. I don’t quite feel like knitting, even though I have many a project to do. Hopefully laying out what I’ve [...]
