Mea culpa

Well, I once again have been a bad blogger. Work has just been so busy lately that I haven't had the opportunity to post regularly, but I will try to get better. After all, this is my journal.

In my defense, I would like to point out that I've kept this journal going for almost three years now. I think my record for a journal prior to that was about 4 weeks.

While I am at making this long overdue blog post, I would like to thank Anmiryam for being a super fantabulous Secret Pal for the SP4 round. It took me a couple days to open the box but once I did I was very pleasantly surprised! More details to come once I find the pic I took when I received the package.

Speaking of pics:


I love this quote - it is so me. This is a proverb etched in a paving stone at the Arboretum (I think) in Dallas, Texas -- I went up a couple weeks ago to visit a friend who has moved back there.

In knitting news, I finished one sock in Regia Stretch, and now I will frog it because it too is just a little bit too small. I need more practice at the measure-as-you-go concept; apparently I am stretching the piece too much and so it fits, but a bit tighter than I like. I also finished a shawl crocheted from Lion Suede by Lion Brand -- pics to come as soon as I weave in the ends.

P.S. Happy Birthday, Lisa!!!!
