LRHS: March 2015

Tuesday, March 03, 2015. They say. Not me. Snow Sand. Snow melts. Sand never ever goes away. Plus, it's hot at the beach. I'll take the snow any day. And as you can see below, we've had a fair amount of it lately. We've been doing lots of wintry things. I took the Girl Scouts ice skating one day. It was a blast. I was the only adult to skate! All the other moms sat on the bleachers. I don't know why. Skating was so much fun! While Kev was gone, we had some Mommy and Daphne style chili. On one of the rece...

Friday, March 28, 2014. Yo Yo Mommy, April 2008. Oh my gosh look at Daphne's cheeks! She was so dang cute. On Monday, I went to a Sip-n-Sew (and Knit) at the Bean Bar. I started a project with linen yarn on tiny needles, and learned to do "double knitting." Eventually, this will become a lavender sachet pouch. Double knitting is pretty amazing. I don't know how anybody ever came up with it. On Tuesday, it snowed. Again. And I made a really good sandwich. She made a face zipper pouch. I love it. On Thursd...

LRHS: October 2013

Thursday, October 31, 2013. Carved the pumpkin and harvested the seeds. Did some knitting. Cleaned the house. Made Daphne a spy badge. Bring on the candy. Tuesday, October 29, 2013. I have some catching up to do! I can't help it. I've been sick. But let's go back a bit. Twas the night before Rhinebeck, and we tried our beer! It wasn't quite officially ready, but since I was about to go out of town and all, we tried it anyway. And it was really REALLY good! And look how pretty it is, too! And lots of this:.

LRHS: Summer - The Good
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2015/07/summer-good.html
Wednesday, July 15, 2015. Summer - The Good. So, in spite of the situation with the lice, summer hasn't been ALL bad. We harvested Murphy the cabbage, and donated him to the local food pantry. Sour cherries appeared at the farmers market, and so there was delicious sour cherry pie. Daphne and I took a road trip to Indiana, which was lots of fun. We went blueberry picking at my favorite blueberry picking place. Blueberries are the best thing about summer. Daphne started drum lessons. She's good! So, summe...

LRHS: February 2015

Wednesday, February 11, 2015. A Few Quick Hits. The girls were recognized by the Mayor and Town Council last night for helping decorate the town at Christmas. It was cool. The girls were really proud, and our awesome Mayor took a lot of time out to spend with them. Daphne has decided to make origami Yoda Valentines this year. It's a lot of work, and probably some of the kids won't know who Yoda is. They are really cute, though. Handmade Valentines are good. I started knitting some socks. View my complete...

LRHS: November 2013
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 24, 2013. Well, it's a few days before Thanksgiving, and I am thankful to be alive. Sounds a little dramatic, huh? Thank God we don't have an Elf on the Shelf! I don't think my heart could take it. Also, my school volunteering responsibilities are much smaller this year. I am working on saying no to things and asking for help more often. This is all good. Saturday, I got to spend some time hanging out with Kev. Even though most of that time was spent stuck in traffice and driving aro...

LRHS: May 2015

Wednesday, May 27, 2015. I am not Martha, and I Dont Care. Today, I saw the word "tablescape" on an Instagram photo and it sent me right over the edge. Granted, the table in the photo looked lovely, but seriously. I can't take any more. All of this Pinteresting and Style Blogging has gone too far. Tablescape. You wanna see a tablescarpe? Look up there. That's our dining room "tablescape," with its mis-matched napkins and Daphne crumbs and homework papers. I love my dining room table. Wanna know why?

Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Guess who is in there? Yep Mouse Number Seven. I'm too freaked out to open the drawer and look, but I KNOW because I can hear him in there, trying to escape from the trap. Little scritch-scratchy sounds, slowly driving me insane, like in the Tell Tale Heart. Kev isn't here. He had to work the night shift last night to support the launch (finally! Because that is what I need. Then I could stop worrying about mice crawling on me or scurrying across my feet. I'm only sort of kidding.

LRHS: January 2015
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 26, 2015. All of these snow days and delays and teacher work days and MLK holidays and things are making it really hard to get in a groove. Even though I got Christmas taken down and put away, there are still piles of homeless things everywhere. A giant purge is in order, but that will require a chunk of time alone in the house, which is very rare these days. Daphne is home now, drawing a treehouse while I blog. But she really wants to play with me. And how can I tell her no? I am SO in!
