I’ve been busy trying to rework my week to fit in some workouts at the gym. I did manage to get there three times this week, including taking a spin class. I wish I was talking about spinning fiber, but no, I took the kind of spin class that makes it hard to sit down [...]
I think I’ve figured out something profound. I really hate doing the same exact thing twice. Now you may be asking yourself, how could I possibly knit if I don’t like repetitive things? But it’s a different level of repetitiveness. I don’t mind knitting two stitches, but it’s like pulling teeth to knit two socks. [...]
I was going through some images I took this past month, and I found a picture of Carrie with her sunglasses on – the same sunglasses I bought her last year! On the left, Carrie at 4 months sporting her sunglasses; on the right, Carrie at 17 months with the same sunglasses. (They’re a little [...]
We’re going on a big family vacation with Denis’ side this summer, to Florida – mainly Disney, although we plan to hit Sea World and a couple of other places while we’re there. Even though I still have more than three months to plan, I’m starting to think about various things we’ll need to bring [...]
Dear Carolyn, Spring is right around the corner, and you’re becoming so much more aware of the world outside our house that I can’t wait to share the new leaves on the trees and the bugs in the garden with you! Cars, trucks, buses and airplanes go by and you hear them and scream (and [...]

…Back to my regularly scheduled crafty blogging! Maybe. I haven’t really managed to get back into the knitting groove yet – I took a nearly two week hiatus from all things crafty and it takes a while for me to find the motivation to start back up. So instead of knitting, I’ve been thinking about [...]
In honor of it being St. Joseph’s Day, we held our 5th annual St. Patty’s Day party. But, to appease my Italian heritage, we put out some St. Joseph’s bread and I baked Italian cookies (with shamrock sprinkles, of course) along with the corned beef and some twice-baked potatoes. Jenny took way more pictures than [...]
The show went really well this weekend. I’m proud of all the kids, and will miss all the seniors graduating this year. I can’t wait to find out what show they’re doing next year (and I hope they invite me back!) The producer gave all the adults that worked on the show a thank you [...]
