What were you thinking?

DH and I took a trip up to Friday Harbor this last weekend and while waiting for the ferry to get off the island there was this:

See the crosswalk?  Well that’s at the back of the queue to load the ferry boat.  See the cop?  he’s standing in the middle of the street directing traffic.  [...]

Snow in Seattle in April???

Yes the title is correct, it is definitely April, all my calendars agree, it’s 4/18/08 and it’s snowing outside.  Not just coming down, but it’s actually on the ground too, and sticking.  Unheard of in Seattle this time of year.
And yet the evidence

See the white streaks, that’s snow, and it’s showing harder now then when [...]

Busy busy busy but I have news.

A little over 11 months ago, I took a 1 year contract position, which is due to end at the end of March.  Well that contract will be ending just a tad sooner than originally anticipated as I was offered the same position, but as a full time employee, and I’ve accepted, so I’ll be [...]

Ramblings about Madrona.

Sorry all, I totally spaced the camera again, so no pics from Madrona.  I did come out alive but I’m not sure my wallet survived day 3.  I swear I’m going to get around to taking pics, hopefully some time this week.
 So Day 1 I took a Make it Fit class, who knew so much [...]

Madrona check in…

Can I just say wow.  My brain is fried from yesterday’s Make it Fit class, I’m still absorbing what I learned but I swear my brains are still leaking out my ears.  Today’s Worsed and Woolen Class, great counterpoint to yesterday’s class.  The Make it Fit was more of a structured class, where information was [...]

Make it melt make it melt make it melt

 Please make it go away.  I decided it would be safer to leave work early and work from home the rest of the day… Oh how right I was.  It took me about 20 - 25 min to get home….but take a look at this.
5″ of snow sitting in my driveway!

Heck, this isn’t even my [...]

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

But first, if you’ve sent me a comment to my last 2 posts, I did see them, but my email notification was broken, I’m really not ignorning you.  I did manage to get that fixed :).

This is taken in the Loading bay at work.

This is from the window in my office near the desk.
I would [...]

DH has leard a true appreciation for yarn

DH has a true appreciation for fiber, everytime I bring something new home, he fondles and cuddles it like a true knitter.
I caught this pic of him and one skein of yarn on New Year’s day.  Yes he really did try and keep the skein of yarn.  He’s been known to do this not only [...]

Drive by weekend blogging.

Went to see Harlot Friday night, got pictures even, none with me in them so I have no proof I was there, but I was.  Got to meet Stephanie in person, and she even pet my Buffalo, more on that and pics later.  Mr. Pink met the Harlot and I even have pics, on the [...]

So much for What’s in the works wednesday

Clearly I missed what’s in the works wednesday again, so here’s a recap of what I’m working on.
Flight of Fantasy shawl, I’m knitting along on it and making progress.  I think I’m at the half way mark, the rows are now up to over 200 stitches.  I finished the 3rd pattern set Wednesday night.
Marlinda socks [...]
