Get crackin’, woman!
The Dallas Stars have their first preseason home game this week. (Incidentally, the last Texas Rangers game we’ll be going to this season is the following day. Two sports. My two favorite sports. Two days in a row. Woo-hoo!!!) I picked out the top (fingertip part) of the team-color mittens I knitted last year in […]
Surprise Self Striping Yarn
I’m knitting these socks in Trekking XXL, using a chart successfully for just about the first time ever. Well, successfully except that I saw-then-forgot a note about knitting two to change the starting point for the second repeat of the leg chart, so the bottom part of the leg design isn’t exactly centered on the […]

I have early Wednesday mornings set aside for blogging (in a time slot that used to be a networking group but is now only a social get-together-for-breakfast-if-anybody-shows-up thing), and I take my little Dell 9″ Inspiron to Central Market Cafe to do it. But in one […]
I have to say…
… that things do or do not work out, and that’s just the way it goes. Sometimes the time you have set aside for blogging turns out to be really productive and you get lots written. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes other people actually show up to the networking meetings you’re ostensibly attending, and you spend […]
