My Thimble Collection

I’m not much of a decorator — my sister got all of that gene in our family. So while I love looking at stuff other people have done, I never seem to do much of it myself. My youngest daughter travels a lot, and she buys me a souvenir thimble everywhere she goes. I also […]

I seem to always start January off with a flurry of activity. Maybe it’s because winter keeps me inside. Maybe it’s because The Final Countdown inspires me with a fresh start. Maybe it’s because I’m all excited to get some stuff done and off my to-do list. I also usually time travel back to find […]

So Far This Summer

I thought I’d pop on with an update on what I’ve been working on this summer so far. I was moving several things along fairly well, once my slump was over, but got immediately waylaid by elbow replacement surgery, which I was not expecting to have to have. But here I am, back at square […]

From the Desk of T-Rex

The saga of the broken elbow continues . . . It’s been a long haul. Nearly nine months since I very un-gracefully changed my life in the blink of an eye! Are you sick of hearing about it? I’m sure sick of talking about it, but it seems to want to consume my life right […]

Full Disclosure

I’ve tried to write this post three times. I don’t like spreading bad news, and I really dislike when it appears that I’m looking for sympathy — I’m not! But in the interest of keeping things real, I felt compelled to come clean. So . . . last Thursday morning, bright and early, this happened: […]

Chipping Away

Do you wanna see some of what I’ve been working on lately? I’m a flitter by nature, so my projects are all over the place. Plus . . . I’ve been cleaning out a lot of long-forgotten spaces, and I’ve unearthed a lot of long-forgotten stuff! (If you read clear to the end, I’m sharing […]

Hibernation Sewing

It’s been bitter cold and snowy here, and altho we don’t have it near as bad as folks further north, I still don’t like it much! We’re finally gonna have a high temperature above 0 degrees today for the first time in days, even tho as I write this, it’s still only -4 out. But […]
