The Woman’s March focus this week is “Reflect & Resist”
In that same vein… here are some things to reflect on this week…
Sometimes the (continued) brilliance of knitters astounds me, but this is insane! Because of this, I have added “take at least one class with Mary Scot Huff” to my list of things to do before I die…
Life has been super stressful with the daily barrage of nonsense coming out of Washington, so I was thrilled when The Night Gardner was available from my local library. Reading it has brought Maximum Stress Reduction… I highly recommend it! I have read it twice so far and it is a lovely, lovely book! Feed your inner child this week – read a kid’s book!
Sweater knitting continues but, sometimes it does not go well…
I will let you know how that blocks out, because I am not ripping back again!
That is all I have for today, but please – tell me something random that is happening in your world today.
Hmmm, random….just finished “The Summer Book” by Tove Jansson and highly recommend. Love Mary Scot Huff’s idea of 2 sleeves as a tube – amazing. And her sleeves? Gorgeous to die for!!!
Random in my world today includes mopping up a flood and fixing a toilet . Everyone in the borough has to have their water meter replaced, so I made my appt., the guy arrived an hour late, replaced the meter, but when he turned the water back on there was a fountain from the toilet and several inches of water on the floor. He’s told me the part I need to replace and assured me it’s an easy 10 minute job and I won’t have any problems. I’m always skeptical when someone says that … if I do manage to fix it, I’m heading straight to the library for The Night Gardener. Thanks for some good random stuff!
Sleeves…in my next life. Night Gardner…on my list! Reflect & Resist…forever! Random: Trying to explain to Norman the difference between the iPhone and the iPad…
Cheers~
Random for me today was a call from my youngest niece to join her for lunch today before she returns to school at the end of the week.
Random today . . . am I getting a cold or is this allergies? Hmmmm.
My random thing for today is wondering if I can talk my husband into getting another dog once we come back from a trip in April.
I’m putting this book on my list. I recently read “The Girl Who Drank the Moon” and highly recommend it!
Those sleeves! Brilliant!!
Blocking is magic. All will be well. 🙂
(Or, as I like to say, well ENOUGH.) XO
And those sleeves are just awesome.
Something random? Well, for the first time in I don’t know how many years, I went to bed and woke up in a house completely empty except for me. It was nice to have time to myself but also very weird!
wow, those sleeves are brilliant. (but I have ZERO desire to do that 🙂
random thought – it’s going to be sandals weather here this weekend; can I squeeze in a pedicure before then?
I promise you that those stitches will block out. I swear! Random…hmmm, well I’m getting used to my new computer and learning new stuff every day. I am looking forward to spring and my hair looks good today!
