Purrlings: Sewing Cabinet Success!

http://purrlings.blogspot.com/2012/01/sewing-cabinet-success.html

A home for knittery, nerdery, and feline tomfoolery. January 09, 2012. I’m trying to turn over a new leaf this year, with a much more consistent attempt at recording finished projects. There was a burst of productivity at the end of last year, so I’ve got lots of catching up to do to help me along! Notice the nicks along the top and inner corners). After (though a bit blurry). Dad the handy man helped me by making some custom fit shelves from some scrap wood:. Fun with fabric and spray adhesive! I had do...

Purrlings: February 2010

http://purrlings.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

A home for knittery, nerdery, and feline tomfoolery. February 24, 2010. I’ve been a knitting fiend lately. Every spare minute after work has been taken up by yarn. I need to keep knitting, as fast as possible, because I have 5 days left to finish this current project. Why 5? Because I need to finish before the end of the closing ceremony of the Olympics. But for now, before coverage starts again tonight? Must keep knitting . . . February 05, 2010. Old t-shirts, your days are numbered! I tend to be a keep...

Purrlings: Christmas close-call

http://purrlings.blogspot.com/2012/01/christmas-close-call.html

A home for knittery, nerdery, and feline tomfoolery. January 03, 2012. Human, you are mistaken. This is my nest, not your fabric. This year, I should have known better when not a single ornament was drowned, taken off the tree, or disturbed in any way. She was buttering me up – for Nicholas. After searching all around and in my chair, still no needle or thread. I tried to check Nico’s mouth, but he wanted absolutely nothing to do with that, thank you very much! Moral of the story? Once cats start eating ...

Purrlings: May 2010

http://purrlings.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

A home for knittery, nerdery, and feline tomfoolery. May 04, 2010. Books Make a Difference. Yet many do not have that world available. Cities are shutting down libraries due to budget cuts ( Philadelphia. I'm looking at you, and you won't be the last); and families need to buy food and secure housing before such luxuries as books can come into play. So I'm supporting the Books Make a Difference. Campaign, and by spreading the word I'm donating a book. May 03, 2010. Odd reactions to stress. Now I’ve...

http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2013/01/100-words-4.html

Sunday, January 13, 2013. I chose 7 adjectives and 7 nouns at random from the dictionary. I matched up one of each for seven days. Each day for a week, I will write a 100-word story using and/or inspired by (loosely or closely) each word pair. 8211; planar: of or pertaining to a geometric plane; flat or level. 8211; half-back: one of two backs who typically line up on each side of the fullback; the main ball-carrier in football. Apparently it wasn’t a game, it was a campaign. 8221; she asked. A poem a day.

Heather In Progress: September 2012

http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, September 23, 2012. A November sunset (taken somewhere around 2003-05). Autumn on (the college) campus (taken somewhere around 2003-05). I'm looking forward to:. Scarves, hats, armwarmers (all knit by me). Knee socks and tights*. Hot chocolate at any hour of the day or night. The smell of frost in the morning. The general feeling of coziness and wanting to stay indoors. Being toasty warm under lots of layers with just my face cold in the air. Blankets- more on the bed and snuggled up on the couch.

http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2010/06/some-things-i-have-been-doing-lately.html

Monday, June 07, 2010. Some Things I Have Been Doing Lately. Playing fetch with the doggie. Buying stuff at a yard sale for my classroom. Buying stuff at a yard sale for a friend who gave me money with that express purpose, because she knows I'm so good at it. Riding my new bike to work (about a mile) and just around a little. Her name is Mabel). Reading The Fellowship of the Ring. Doing Wii Fit yoga, strength, and balance (I get enough cardio at work! Typing letters on my typewriter. Sleeping in a little.
