    F is for...

    Monday, 27 March 2006 8:46 P GMT-08
    "F" is for: FREESIAS! These line one side of the driveway, and they are wonderful!  The scent is incredible, the color so cheerful and the fact that I do nothing except enjoy them is an added bonus.  They start appearing

    New Beginnings

    Monday, 20 March 2006 11:34 A GMT-08
    Today is the first of 2 days at home before starting my new job; a job that will require my presence in the office virtually 100% of the time.  Indeed, a job with a commute: the old commute was 11 miles and 30 minutes, the new is 27 miles and 45

    Weekend Wrap Up

    Sunday, 19 March 2006 11:59 P GMT-08
    It was a strange weekend, but still good. Not a lot of knitting happened, but enough that I don't feel deprived.  Lots of car stuff, including a carbureuter fire, a replaced rack and pinion, numerous visits to recycling yards and a trip to Al

    Happy St. Patrick's Day

    Friday, 17 March 2006 3:41 P GMT-08
    (By the way, today's quote of the day is one of my all time favorites, so I'm repeating it here:   It's said that everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day, and some of us are (probably) part Irish the rest of the time too.  We Gough-Wilson'

    Beware the Ides of March (in a good way)

    Wednesday, 15 March 2006 11:59 P GMT-08
    Indeed.  Why do the Ides of March carry such dire warnings?  I blame it on Shakespeare and Julius Caesar, but my darling Mr. Ken blames it on me, and  my birthday which is indeed the Ides of March.  Of course, he says the fact tha

    Rainy Sundays and Antiques

    Tuesday, 7 March 2006 11:59 P GMT-08
    It's been a tough weekend.  Losing KittyHawk was a bad start - we know he was ready to go (we took him outside and watched him visit his favorite sleeping and play places in the yard, and when he was done he walked up to the door and went inside

    KittyHawk  1996 - 2006 KittyHawk is no longer with us.  Mr. Ken and I made the hard decision to have him euthanized Friday evening, and it was done at about 7 p.m.  I held him while our wonderful and compassionate vet administered the

    KittyHawk Update

    Thursday, 2 March 2006 8:48 P GMT-08
    It's official now.  KittyHawk's kidneys are failing or have failed.  He's lost even more weight and now weighs half of what he did a month or 6 weeks ago - 4.75 pounds.  He's never been a big cat, but this is downright tiny. We g

    Kitty Updates

    Wednesday, 1 March 2006 11:59 P GMT-08
    There's knitting to talk about, and D and E to post, but this is all about kitties, sick ones at that. KittyHawk is not doing well.  His abscesses are healing nicely now, and  he's taking (and hating) the heavy-duty antibiotic, but he's li
