Sweeney's Mama: Chemistry
http://angelarothwell.blogspot.com/2011/09/chemistry.html
Saturday, 24 September 2011. Did you know that this is the Year of Chemistry. Well, it is. And to celebrate, the Royal Society are behind a project called Knit the Periodic Table. Yes, you read that right. A bunch of us needle wielders have knitted a square each. Mine's Uranium. I chose it. Here it is, at top right, with a bunch of other great elements . I'm looking forward to seeing it all put together. Typically, I have no clue when that might happen, or where it'll be . 25 September 2011 at 10:48 PM.

Sandra's garden: April 2009
http://sandra-in-the-garden.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Not high tech, not high spec. One woman's journey outside of nappies and dishes and into tulips, borlotti beans and compost recipes. Tuesday, April 7, 2009. Letters from Wetville - new blog. It seems time for a spruce up, a tighter focus. Or something. I feel like my blog has become a bit like parts of my garden. Sprawled out with weeds everywhere. No longer with a clear function. So this is my attempt at a slightly altered direction. Saturday, April 4, 2009. While I had the gardening window, I also weed...

Sandra's garden: August 2008

Not high tech, not high spec. One woman's journey outside of nappies and dishes and into tulips, borlotti beans and compost recipes. Friday, August 29, 2008. I just entered the NZ Gardener get growing. I also remember going to that same creek with my brother and Grandad and catching eels. Hoping to take my own children up there to play next school holidays. Thursday, August 28, 2008. Yesterday I bought a new knife. It is made in China by Kuhn Rikon who originally hail from Switzerland. It is very...I mad...

Sandra's garden: January 2009
http://sandra-in-the-garden.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Not high tech, not high spec. One woman's journey outside of nappies and dishes and into tulips, borlotti beans and compost recipes. Saturday, January 31, 2009. To freeze or not to freeze is a discussion we seem to have at least every year at my place. Do we need a chest freezer? No Would a chest freezer be very useful? Yes Can we afford one right now. No. So I guess we'll shelve that one until next year. And hope she forgets about the area. Intestinal flora is getting the good treatment. I made some bee...

Sandra's garden: Agent Provocateur
http://sandra-in-the-garden.blogspot.com/2009/03/agent-provocateur.html
Not high tech, not high spec. One woman's journey outside of nappies and dishes and into tulips, borlotti beans and compost recipes. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Isn't that from a movie? It conjures two images for me. Firstly of some incredibly sexy French woman from a James Bond movie. Or secondly when I think of 'provocateur' I think of the history of the seedy Soho area in Inner London, the Seven Dials and the prostitutes who propositioned. Forum: The legacy of neo-liberalism.

Ordinary Situations: I need another weekend to recover from this week!
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-need-another-weekend-to-recover-from.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. I need another weekend to recover from this week! This week has been a strange one. I had been planning to visit him the day he died. I wanted to sing him some songs in the hospital. He died a few hours before my planned visit, and I was really upset that I hadn't sung those songs to him - a hymn called come back to me, and some old songs like 'don't sit under the apple tree'. I love that story and I know that it's one I'll tell our children and keep in my heart forever. Our niece pu...

Ordinary Situations: Modified exercise and sport for above knee amputees
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2010/04/modified-exercise-and-sport-for-above.html
Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Modified exercise and sport for above knee amputees. My best to gather information, mostly from the net, about normal sports or exercises that have been modified to suit amputees. Probably mainly above knee amputees just because it's what I know. I want to teach myself - and then record my results - for yoga, tai chi, martial arts, swimming styles (this at least I already have experience with), gym techniques, cycling etc, but all. However, as far as I'm concerned, my. Research r...

Ordinary Situations: August 2009
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 2, 2009. TAFE - constant state of stress. No structured 'exam week' - instead, an exam every week or two, with assignments and prac reports galore. Never a chance to wind down, even over the holidays we had a TONNE of study and homework to do. Feeling utterly overwhelmed, not enjoying myself much anymore, just trying to get it finished. What is this word you speak of? I have been a craptastic mate this year, pretty much disappearing off the face of the earth. Every time I. I had done so we...

Spinning a Yarn: Renovation :: Studio Space
http://spinningayarnblog.blogspot.com/2012/09/renovation-studio-space.html
Thursday, 20 September 2012. Renovation : Studio Space. I have a few more renovation pictures to share, of the house in Auckland. This space has been a good record of all the work we put into our first home, and I'd like it to be complete. This is Muriel, who you first met here. Muriel came with the 'games room' which I turned studio. Those who know me or visited my studio, know this was a 'creative space' which is a polite euphemism for hellishly messy most of the time. We have a date this week! I love ...

Spinning a Yarn: Little Lady Knits
http://spinningayarnblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/little-lady-knits.html
Friday, 10 May 2013. I've been spending some time on Ravelry lately looking at all the lovely patterns there are for little lasses and lads. We haven't found out what flavour the baby is, so I've (mostly) been making gender neutral knits in gender neutral colours since we found out we were pregnant. Here are a few of my (current) favourites for little girls. I've actually knit this one! Pattern available in baby and toddler sizes- look for the e-book with both patterns in it. 6 months to 10 years sizes).
