alternately titled: Toothpicks, Dental Floss and You.
Only that would sound an awful lot like a toothpaste commercial, or an advertisement for a new dental procedure.
And frankly, I’d rather not associate my dental work with knitting, even if sock knitting ranks right up there in the painful department.
It’s a different kind of pain, one I’d [...]

Alternatively Titled: stuff I’d like to knit. As soon as I replenish my stash. I haven’t bought yarn since February of ‘09. Feels like a looooong time.
I’m loving the new yarns from Knitpicks. Since the closest yarn shop is 45 minutes away, the internet is my best friend.
I’d like to knit the monkey and all [...]

You think I mean Second Sock Syndrome, dontcha?
Well, I don’t. I really really really don’t like sock knitting. Maybe it’s the small yarn, or the teeny tiny needles, or my very short attention span. But whatever it is, it’s not my thing. (Shannon, uber-sock-knitter, just won’t understand this whole thing…)
What I really mean is Saggy [...]

This is the sock after I ripped it out. This was the WRONG way to do it. Really wrong. Took me HOURS to untangle that curly little mess.
I was tired of feeling defeated by the sock. SO, Here’s my sock sock-yarn-turned-hat. This was taken at the [...]

…And it wasn’t even on yarn.
Go see this movie. It puts the marriage relationship where it should be–the highest priority behind a relationship with God. Not a second or third class relationship, behind that of your friends and your dog. Just behind your relationship with Jesus, Your spouse should be your highest priority and your [...]

My son always gets the bad end of the deal. His sister is MUCH more vocal than he is, and he is much more polite polite-r than most kids, so he gets a bad deal, almost every time. They both want a hat. But she’s whinier, and louder, [...]

We saw that movie about the girl football player. I would have liked to have taken
