New picture of Nathan.
And so this isn’t completely off-topic we have three people left for which to buy Christmas presents. And we have a five month old baby who refuses to sleep. Ever. I’m pretty proud. Of the shopping, not the not sleeping. Oh, and everything that has been delivered? [...]

1.  What is the one knitting accessory you could not live without? A wee pair of scissors that fold up.  They fit perfectly in the zippered bag I keep my circs and they’re small enough blades to bring on planes.
2.  If you’re heading on vacation, do you take knitting with you?  If so, how much [...]

Bah. I need to pick up my knitting needles. I’ve started a couple things, but then I set them aside as I’m afraid I’m jinxing the PineNut’s health. How goofy is that? Like I’m going to miscarry because I made a hand knit sweater in which s/he can come home. [...]

Every once in awhile I forget that I am pregnant. Then the queasies hit and I think I have the flu. Sure, it’s just for a few seconds, but my first thought isn’t morning sickness. When I cry at commercials I start to berate myself for being a goober. Then I [...]

So. Lot’s of crying last night. We watched the season premiere of Grey’s Anatomy – after marathoning all of season two in seven days, people. Seven days. We are rulers of all couch potatoes!

Last night we went to three Target stores looking for the second season of Grey’s Anatomy. We finally got home after ten and promptly sat down and watched three episodes. I love this show. We only have twenty-four more episodes get through before next Tuesday’s premiere!

Do you see my joy? Throw out today, and really I don’t believe it is going to get to be that warm today as it’s only 63 right now, and we’re not even looking at 75 degrees for ten whole days! I love me some autumn! And the trees on our [...]

The plague is still holding strong. I’m winning though; I haven’t even napped today! What it has done is given me time to finish up a carpetbag I started over the 4th of July holiday. It ended up being almost 20″ tall and over a foot wide. Let’s see how much [...]

My secert pal sent me the most amazing box full of PINK! There was much squeeing, until I started coughing and then there was a nap. I have the black plague tinged with the bird flu. I’m the first case of it ever discovered. However, when I’m a little better I [...]
