Knits With Cats
Knits With Cats
I'm a senior technical project manager at work, a knit project starter at home and a list-maker everywhere! I'm married and have too many cats, lots of books, almost enough rose bushes, and way too much yarn!

This month I've been plugging away on another sweater from Saturday Sweaters. I did the first and second sleeves while travelling at Christmas, and started the back just after New Year's Eve. The sleeves were the gauge swatches, a

This year I will lose weight. No trying to lose weight, hoping I'll lose weight or planning to lose weight. I WILL LOSE WEIGHT.And I will keep myself honest by reporting pounds lost weekly on Monday in my online journal, which i

Today I looked all over for Sweetie-cat. She wasn't in any of her usual nap spots, some of which are hard to get to because I'm rearranging the guest room / knitting and sewing stash room. I've made good progress, and the new

Over the holidays, I ventured into my Mother's living room and saw this: My niece is knitting! (Not only is she knitting, she's wearing slippers I knit for her!)Several years ago, at least 5 I think, I made all 5 of my nieces a &q

I've spent my spare time this weekend finishing the yarn inventory. There might be a stray skein that's not counted, but it would surprise me. I counted yarn in the front room - parlor, the master bedroom, my home office, the atti

2006 in Review
Tuesday, 2 January 2007 4:00 P GMT-08
What did I accomplish in 2006? That depends.Weightwise, nothing. I didn't lose the 25 pounds I wanted to lose, but I didn't gain even 1 pound. That's got to count for something, but it's not really an accomplishment.
Goals, Not Resolutions (Again)
Monday, 1 January 2007 1:29 P GMT-08
