Journaled this on May 2, 2010 on another site

I don’t know if I had ever shared this here, but way back when I was out there in soon-to-be-divorced land, and then recently-divorced-oh-my-god-I-haven’t-dated-in-ages world I was on a few dating sites. There was one dating site in particular that was excellent — mostly because I met a lot of nice

Why did I do that?

If you go back far enough on this blog you will see that my photos are missing.  That is because I made the decision to let my zenknit.com domain name go.  I guess I wasn’t thinking it all the way through, because that is where I had stored all my photos for this blog. I [...]

Long time no post and end of year

It’s almost a new year. I don’t know why a calendar date makes such a big difference. Perhaps it is the promise of a different tomorrow. I am just so thankful for each day and hope the next year brings many more moments of good things for all of us. 2010 was wonderful.  Full of [...]

A Slice of Romance

Summertime brings a lot of knitting during conversation.  Out and about – be it at the park, or coffeehouse, or waiting for the movie to start.  With summer I need something light to knit – so it is socks and shawls it is! I have a lot of nice sock yarn – too many hanks [...]

Stage Mother

Color me proud. My daughter  will be in an upcoming theatre production at Carleton College.  I am just beaming. A friend asked me if I knew of anyone that would fit this particular part, and I offered her up as a suggestion, no audition necessary.  We made arrangements for her to move into her role.

Joy, Peace, Forgiveness and Renewal

I love Spring and the celebration of Easter.  To me, Easter is a time of Joy, Peace, Forgiveness and Renewal.  It’s a wonderful mix my traditional Catholic upbringing blended with flavors of my many religious and spiritual experiences. One of the traditions of the season is going to the Marjorie McN

Catching up

Life. -sigh- If you are looking for knitting content, you will have to content yourself will looking at the photos, and hopefully near them will be little bits of info. Ready? Life is always wonderful – every little juicy bit, though sometimes I wish my life was a little less crying kind of juicy. P

A different kind of Holiday season this year

This year I am not in a mad dash to finish a huge pile of projects.  I have been busy with big life changes: a divorce and all that goes with that, getting a full-time job, meeting new people, dealing with illness in my family, friends’ life changes – you know, LIFE. And usually I would [...]

Rebirth / Birthday

I had a birthday on the 28th of September. Yeah me! Although I am only 48 – it was still an important one.  And now I am wondering, why do we make a big deal about the 10s?  Hmmmm, anyway, I celebrated for about 3 days.  2 days before and then on the actual day. [...]

I’ve lost that loving feeling

I have been unfaithful to my knitting. Very unfaithful. I have taken up with my long time love of books. I think it began when I was somewhat forced to go through all of the books in my house in order to decide which were mine, and which are my husband’s. It could also be [...]
