Made With Love
I was sitting on the couch beside my dogs last night. It was a rare event that Millie (the brown one) wanted to sit on the couch with me. Our evening routine is that Ethan is with me on the couch and Millie is with Josh on the loveseat, which sits perpendicular to the couch.… →

From Scratch
What skill would you like to learn? You know, I’ve always wanted to learn how to play the piano. I can play the trumpet and know how to read music. I figure playing the piano is a lot like typing without looking at the keyboard, which, let me just say, freaked out a lot of… →

Having the Patience
What’s the trait you value most about yourself? My husband will vehemently disagree with me on this one. In fact, he disagrees with me on this all…the…time. But! I really value my patience. To be fair, I’m not patient about everything. Which is probably why my husband thinks I’m impatient…even though it’s not my fault… →

Seeking an Influencer
What brands do you associate with? What an oddly formal sounding question today. This is giving social media influencer vibes. Like those people who are given products to push on their videos. I’ve already written a post similar to this question at one point. I remember telling you about my favorite running shoes and why… →

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,… →

Let’s Just Go!
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… →

An Imitation of a Collectible
On Saturday I have what I hope will be my final tattoo appointment for the blue flowers I’ve been getting inked on my arm. If I hold out long enough and don’t tap out, it can be the last session. If it is, and even if it isn’t, I have a gift for my artist.… →
