Tiny Tyrant: A Promise Made, a Promise Kept
http://pleiaden.blogspot.com/2012/05/promise-made-promise-kept.html
Knitting my way through major changes. Tuesday, May 1, 2012. A Promise Made, a Promise Kept. Today was one of the hardest days of my life. I had to say goodbye to the sweetest soul I have ever known. I got Cliff the Mutt when he was 4 months old. He was a pound baby through and through, since he was born there. I was the second family that got him. And I have been so very blessed for the past 13 years. He always slept with me. Cuddled with me and could induce the BEST puppy naps ever. When I got him home...

A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Monday, August 31, 2009. Baggo" was a blast! No, and I don't mean "Blaggo" our celebrity, impreached joke of a Govenor. Bill and I were invited to a couples party for "Baggo" on Saturday evening. Neither of us had ever played. There were 14 couples - (big group! The funniest part is what happens when you win (or lose as the case may be) -. Well, if you win alot (like ME! Everyone brought appetizers or deserts and there was lots of imbibing which is fun to watch the outcome ...

The Stitchin Corral: April 2009
http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Tuesday, April 28, 2009. I do like to spin! I am so enjoying my spinning wheel. I am pleasantly surprised, pleased as to how much I enjoy spinning - kind of like a challenge to be consistent, makes me focus and is relaxing all in one. I am playing with several different fibers seeing which ones I like more - the funny part is each time I spin a new or different fiber I like it 'best' until I spin the next one. In a hand dyed green multi colorway. The purple-ish is Angee fro...

A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Wednesday, September 16, 2009. Is it real or is it memorex? As I've blogged about before, Bree is an avid Indianapolis Colts fan. She is also an avid fan of anyone who beats the Bears. Bree and Mom have ongoing bets and the like over their favorite teams. So, Bree got a big surprise this summer. She got to meet Peyton Manning:. But, here is the real deal:. She has a signed autograph picture, she has a numbered trading card and these photos that she will cherish forever!

The Stitchin Corral: September 2008
http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Tuesday, September 30, 2008. I'm so bad about taking photos. Half the time I don't update my blog, because it is such a hassle to take photos, download them to my computer, edit them, load them into flickr or such then add them. So, this blog post is catching up on completed knitting pieces. My Dad would be proud - hahaha). She's already used it by taking it to her friend's house to do homework together. Glad she likes it! I picked up this new way of dyeing sock yarn - call...

A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Tuesday, August 26, 2008. After the 4H Fair was over and we recuperated - and got everything put away - which seems to take 2x as long as dragging it all out - my parents came to town -. Well Here you go:. My Dad (Bree calls him "Poppa") - surveying her technique! Bree showing Poppa how "strong" she is (She is going to kill me for posting this one - but oh well - too bad - so sad). She had a blast - She is getting so grown up! The kids (including my Brother) had a great tim...

The Stitchin Corral: June 2008
http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Monday, June 9, 2008. An anniversary of sorts. But, life marches on. And just to prove I have been doing something - here are a few pictures of what has been accomplished! The next is a pair of socks just for me! They are by Evelyn Clark - called Waving Lace and the yarn is from Jen and Knitting Like Crazy in the Crazy soft color called Mint Julip - and I must say, this combination of yarn and pattern has to be one of my all time favorites! And of course, Bree decided that ...

The Stitchin Corral: It is still September, right?
http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2009/09/it-is-still-september-right.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Tuesday, September 29, 2009. It is still September, right? I swore when I looked at the calendar that it was still September! You wouldn't perhaps guess it from our weather. The thermostat said 66. So, I have been spinning! I finished Joy's fiber - I think it turned out so pretty! I will see her Wednesday to give it to her. It is a bit more 'green' that shows in this picture (I have noticed that my camera does not photograph dark greens well - wonder why that is). View my c...

http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Thursday, October 15, 2009. Has it really been amost 2 weeks? Goodness, I had not realized that I had been so remiss in posting. I swore it was just a couple of days ago. really. Just shows how fast time is flying, I guess. We knew 2 people who were running in it and this is the Association that Bree will be running in next year, so we thought it would be good for her to watch. Lori had brought some wine that she had been talking about with a 'chicken' on the label, so we a...

The Stitchin Corral: Bree's New Saddle...
http://thestitchincorral.blogspot.com/2009/09/brees-new-saddle.html
A Collector of Craft Hobbies". Saturday, September 19, 2009. After 4 years of riding in her Lime Green Ostrich Seat Billy Cook, both Bree and Tess have outgrown it. Bree was 8 and Tess was 5. It started to pinch Tess at the shoulder blades causing 'dry' spots underneath the saddle pad. Once we realized this, we ordered Bree a new Original Bob Marshall treeless saddle like our trainer uses and several folks from the barn have ordered too! Here's the pictures of the new saddle:. Now I am jealous. It is sti...
