That was the sentence just yelled to me when I answered the phone. Yes, it was me, but not the Bonnie the super old caller was looking for. Anyway. House progress chugs along. Right now I have a couple of guys out my window working on putting in a new gas line. I'll get to …

snapshots
I'm going to focus on the positive. Maybe tomorrow I'll talk to you about the water heater fiasco. Yesterday I went to Corvallis and had lunch with Sarah (so fun thanks again Sarah) and picked up the rest of our newborn diapers. Here is what I wrote about when we first chose to cloth diaper. …
Knitting it up
First of all a winner: Jen Gough I drew your name so email me your address (link in the upper right) and I'll get this book off to you! Second, I couldn't figure out how to choose between all my new yarn. So I dug out one of my older skeins of Sundara, I am …
Even more yarn… and a give away
Sciarrino and I had so much fun yesterday going to the Blue Moon sale. The only bummer was my neighbor being too sick to come, though I appreciate her not wanting to get me sick! The Socks that Rock part of my haul: There is so much yumminess in that basket! I think I got …
Sundara – yarn from heaven
Oh man am I smitten. Way back in October I signed up for a couple of Sundara clubs. Yesterday my yarn came. After asking the guys if my mailman had come yet about 16 times Harvey walked into my room and handed me four boxes. I ripped into those suckers like a crazed kid at …
Dailies
I know I'm not the only one doing the December Daily thing with Ali. But I thought I would share my (really simple) take. Each day is like the one on the right, with a simple band of Ki Memories attached by staples, and a number stamped on Bazzill (orange peel texture, my favorite). I …
Progress… on all fronts
This past weekend was the most relaxed I've been since the remodel started. We started out having thanksgiving at Brett and Michele's. Ah the wonderfulness of a casual holiday. And of course my wonderful god-daughter V who couldn't be more adorable. Unfortunately I was so relaxed I took zero pictures of the day, oops! I …
Free Association Wednesday
frenetic I know, when is the last time I did one of these? I'm finally using Dianne's word from the last free association. Remember it's easy to play along just comment on the first thing that pops into your head, a story, a word, a …
Monster Shower
Yesterday Sciarrino through me a monster baby shower. It wasn't actually monster huge, but literally about monsters. You may have seen this link in my side bar. Bj and I loved the monsters so much that Sciarrino came up with the idea to throw a shower where we made them. Her place looked so cozy …
New…improved…WATER!
This sums up my life right now pretty well: Remember how I said "It should be signed off on tomorrow so that we can finish sheet rocking," yesterday? Well it did get signed off on, but we couldn't sheet rock because we ran into a little problem. Turns out when you upgrade almost all your …
