Sometimes getting into a groove on a project is a problem.  I’ve been wanting to make the Lacy Top Cardigan (designed by Doris Chan. PDF pattern is available for free download on Ravelry.com ) for my SIL ever since we saw the pattern while shopping together in 2007. Yes, two years.  Well I’ve started on it.  Really.  And it’s an [...]

While it was snowing in Atlanta last week, I was sipping Mimosas here…
As we were getting up to go to the airport, the ELPH’s cell rings.  It’s Delta informing us our noon flight was canceled.  Never fear, they’d scheduled us to go out on the next flight at 2 o’clock.  Yes!  two more hours in [...]

You might have noticed my Ever Patient & Loving Husband and I live on a lake.
It’s a very pretty lake,
very clean
and clear.
We enjoy it as often as we can.
