Yarn, RAKs, and Kind Gestures
Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone. I’ve written before about the online knitting group I belong to. It’s a community of knitters, crocheters, weavers, and all-around crafty yarn people that live in a whole variety of countries. But we don’t just chat in the group. It’s actually a swap group… →

I Do What I Want
What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being? Health and well-being today, huh? Well, I can tell you what I don’t do, and that is simply this: I don’t do what I don’t want to do. And I try to drink enough water. Plus I take a multivitamin every day now. After… →

Yarn Friends and Travel Plans
What are your future travel plans? My future travel plans?! Would you also like my address and code to my alarm system?! With that said, I won’t go into specifics about any itineraries that are coming up. But just know, once this summer program that I supervise ends in the middle of August, I have… →

All Things Yarn
On what subject(s) are you an authority? I had to look up the definition of authority for this one. What does it mean exactly to be an authority on something? Google says it means you “possess expert knowledge, experience, and credibility in that area, allowing for informed opinions and influence over others.” By that definition,… →

Gladiator, Ethan, and Self-Care
How do you practice self-care? Cicero is not wrong here. Sometimes we do what we want and sometimes we do what we have to. I don’t think self-care was a concept in the gladiator days of Rome, though Maximus did ask him if he thought it was hard to do his duty. It’s hard for… →

What countries do you want to visit? I have a very simple answer for this that I will immediately retract, and that is, ALL of them! Though not really ALL of them. I have great enthusiasm for visiting other countries mainly because I have never been to another country. In fact, I’ve never been off… →

And So I’ll Sit
Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life. Simple things bring joy to my life. I don’t need anything big, complicated, or expensive to bring me joy. In fact, I’m doing that simple thing right now. I’m sitting. It’s a cool morning and my husband and I are sitting in the… →

I’m Crafty Like That
I think I’m good at a lot of things. I think I can write pretty well. I’m good at keeping things organized, maybe a little too organized. I can remember names of actors that had exactly one line in a movie that my husband and I loved that we saw on our third date 25… →

I Just Like Stuff
Do you have any collections? I’m one of those “stuff” people. I like stuff. I have tacky knick knacks lining my bookshelves. I’ve always been that way. So it’s not surprising that I like to collect things, or at least I did. I used to have a pretty sizable collection of snow globes. I loved… →

The Unique Nun
Which aspects do you think makes a person unique? What makes a person unique can’t be boiled down to a certain aspect. It’s all the things—how someone thinks, what they believe in, what their hobbies are, the things they say, etc. And it’s the distinct combination of those things that really bring out the uniqueness.… →
