is it love at first sight?

outside right now there is a slight spattering of snow. it is 35 degrees, so there is a fair amount of slush too. but when i walked out to to car to close the sun roof (it was slightly ajar), there was the most delightful crunch crunch crunch under my boots. me thinks i might like winter.

okay, so i remembered my blogaversary, and then promptly forgot it. so i will talk about it now.

yeah! it has been one year! i need to update the uber, and see where i am at with its standings. it feels like i have done a lot, but i don't know...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

it is a lovely cold day in connecticut. i will start cooking soon, and bust out the comal to heat up my tamales. yum! i hope that everyone has a lovely day, and that we are all thankful for what we have.

for me, i am thankful that i have a fabulous family! nuclear and extended! i am thankful that my kin was spared in the sylmar fires, and although my grandpa was evacuated, i am thankful that he is still around to be evacuated. i am thankful that during this time of economic woe, my husband has a good job, and is able to provide us with the things we need, and a lot of things we don't need. i am thankful for my friends. i am looking forward to the day when we all go nuts at the same time, and relish in the conversations where we make these plans. i am thankful for my health. i am thankful for the fiber arts that have kept my stresses down, and my creativity up. i am thankful for good neighbors. and i am thankful for those that are serving their country, and are away from their families. sometimes i forget that Pat could be underwater, far away, instead of with us, playing and having a good time. i will try to be more thankful that he has witnessed the birth of both our babies, and been around to see them start their cute little lives. i am thankful.

three months...

done! i finished august september and october. HOORAY! i think i will be updating the old uberlist soon, too.

what a bad blogger...

i just found a post, languishing in word. it was from june. go see it... i'm too lazy to link it.

wow!

okay, so i was looking through all my flickr sets, and my blog, and i came to the realization that i haven't written about a lot of stuff. sooo... i am going to make it my goal to back blog. maybe all the way through april. i think if i take it a bit at a time it shouldn't be too bad. then again, maybe i am crazy.

btw i just finished september.

september and october update.

since there has been a time change i am up early and the kids are sleeping. i have already picked up the house, and had a cup o joe, AND worked on a scarf a bit. now i will blog!

looking at my lack of blogging, it seems that i might need to catch up with all summer. maybe this will be a week long blogging event.
