Today I gave notice. I thanked my boss for her support and the opportunities she has given me. Today I quit my job…. so that I can design full-time. I am, simultaneously, giddy and bubbling over with excitement and absolutely terrified. I have taken the safe route so many times in my life. I chose […]

Good News!
My Aunt’s cancer appears to be contained to one area that is easily removed. She’s got surgery scheduled for next week and then will probably have some chemo or radiation afterward to be sure, but this is considerably better than the options if the cancer had spread. In fact, I’ll be heading to San Diego […]
Shivaya Naturals Interview
Hey all, I’m doing a design for Shivaya Naturals‘ 2009 Yarn Club, so Heather interviewed me for their blog. If you’re interested, the interview is here. Also, the yarn club is up for subscriptions, just click the “buy now” button in the sidebar of that link.
New Year, New Plans
I could really just throw last year’s 3 goals up again and tell myself “Stick with those, they worked for you” but I like to take the new year as a time to assess how far I have come, and what my plan for the future is. Not so much resolutions as assessment of where […]
I Need Your Thoughts and Prayers
My Aunt has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. At this time we don’t know how far it has reached, she has a diagnostic test next month, but if you could all send your prayers, good thoughts, best wishes or whatnot, I would appreciate it. M
Clearing Cobwebs
Re-entry to the workforce yesterday was brutal, and then I woke up this morning at about 3:30 am thinking (in my obsessive way so that I could not get back to sleep) about how the only thing I could think of in the grocery store that has no marketing campaign is ammonia. Ammonia: distilled from […]
Happy Holidays
A bit behind, but I’ve been enjoying my time off work and celebrating by doing almost nothing 🙂 The Borg Fan Collective and Stargate Atlantis: Season 2 have been good standbys for some much needed vegging, but I did manage to drag myself into something other than pajamas and to the post office to mail […]
More FO's
I’ll post more of the FO’s as I get them photographed and out of the queue. Again with the ravelry links and the laziness 😉 Clown Barf socks Summary: These were the socks that C basically dared me to make for him, and I have to say he has stuck to his word. When I […]
Shifting Priorities
Apparently, when I am stressed and busy, the blog is the first thing to go. I didn’t intend to be away for so long, but my entries would have been akin to this: “I am busy, and feel uncreative. I have more angst than a pimply teenager. Please excuse the whiney content. Blah blah blah… […]
The Slog
I feel like I’ve fallen off the face of the planet! I’ve had a couple of e-mails checking in with me, so I figured I ought to say something. I am alive, but really just off. You know what I mean? My life consists of going to work, high stress while I work, going home, […]
