A Bug's Life: April 2013
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Thursday, April 11, 2013. A Post in Which I Unload My Mind About Books. I read a lot. No, really, I'm serious. I read a lot. I've always read as much as possible; genre didn't matter. I read classic fiction, historical fiction, mystery fiction, biographical fiction, romance fiction, comedic fiction, legends, mythology, fantasy fiction and science fiction. Reading is so good, right? Why would I feel guilty for it? About a year or so ago, I couldn...

A Bug's Life: Spinning Along
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2014/04/spinning-along.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Tuesday, April 29, 2014. I have a new addiction. The little bitty skein is the first bit of yarn I ever spun on a wheel. The crazy colored skein that looks like something Captain Jack Sparrow would wear in his hair (according to my husband) is the first plied (plyed? This is my second plied (that spelling just looks so wrong! I have no idea what to do with the yarn I'm making, but right now, I don't care. I'm just having fun making it. YARRRRRN ...

A Bug's Life: May 2013
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Monday, May 13, 2013. The Most Common Miracle. Just because it's common doesn't make it any less of a miracle. Have you ever been present at a birth- or given birth yourself? Then you probably know what I mean. Last week, I had the most amazing opportunity to witness the most common miracle. And I have to tell you, it did not seem the least bit common. It was just as beautiful, just as amazing, just as mind-blowing as the first time I wi...No, r...

A Bug's Life: March 2013
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Wednesday, March 20, 2013. I am so excited. I have finished a project that I have been working on for over 2 years. Well, ok, it's not really completely done, but the hardest parts are done. I have knit and written 24 original patterns for a big pattern book. I know it's still quite a ways away from being in print, but my big part is pretty much done. And I 'm very pleased with the end results. All 24 of them. I hope you will be too. Knitting Yo...

A Bug's Life: September 2013
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Tuesday, September 17, 2013. I was hoping the summer would slow down after we moved in to our new place. I was so wrong. The blog silence has not been because I have nothing to write about. The blog silence happened because I have been so incredibly busy with so much that I have absolutely no time to write. In the interest of that time- and space- I'm going to try to briefly summarize the last 2 months. 4) Taekwondo has been great. Sweethear...

A Bug's Life: Snow Days 2014
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2014/02/snow-days-2014.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Monday, February 10, 2014. Last Thursday, it started snowing. The kids were thrilled. We don't often get snow in this typically rather wet part of the Pacific Northwest. Snowmen were built, bikes were tested for weather-worthiness, and fortresses were constructed. Saturday, the freezing rain came, and the fortresses became almost indestructible (and in-constructable as well). Snow days are good days. :D. February 20, 2014 at 8:50 AM.

A Bug's Life: Huh.
http://lobug.blogspot.com/2014/02/huh.html
In which Lobug talks about her life, loves, and obsessions. Tuesday, February 25, 2014. Random little things that have been making me go "huh" lately:. 1) Cutting my littlest one's fingernails, I find myself realizing that I used to cut my other kids' nails too; and I don't even remember when that stopped. Nostalgia hits a mom at odd moments for odd reasons. I wouldn't want to cut all their fingernails now, but I miss doing it. Why do I miss doing it? 4) I am continually amazed at little "coincidences".
