Wow, what a change from yesterday @ 40 + degrees to this morning. I thought Bruce was kidding when he said he couldn’t get the door open this morning. It appears the wind blew lots of snow and ice against it and we are trapped! He is going on a crash diet to try and [...]

I’m a member of Ravelry and I recently joined an International swap. I am swapping local yarn for Austrailian yarn, my swap partner Roseanne, is from Bairnsdale, Victoria, Australia and we have been corresponding this past month.

Yesterday was my day off so I was spared the thrill of driving into work again along with the idiots on the road. Bruce shoveled our driveway 4 times at least yesterday and this morning was doing it again at 5am.
I wish I had an airhorn that I could blow when I drive past those [...]

At long last, here is a picture of the Alpaca that I am favoring. He is all white with blue eyes and will have his first shearing this May. I just want to make sure that this is something that I really am serious about. I love knitting with Alpaca and he will be boarded [...]

Here we are just one hour after being born. At this point Aimee is still in the recovery room and the nurse has gotten a blood type, weighed, measured and bathed Hanna. She was so calm and peaceful throughout the entire process. Hopefully she will remain that way.
Her sister on the other hand has been [...]

Hanna Mae Kievit, born 1/17/08 @ 8:01 am, 7 lbs. 1 oz, 19 3/4″ and she is absolutely beautiful, of course. Truthfully, the worst part of it was having to share it with my ex-husband, who never shuts up. He constantly runs his mouth and repeats himself all the time. It’s like an old record [...]

Hello readers,
I’m sure I’m surprising everyone with this post, but I decided I would get instructions on how to get online before Aimee disappears for a couple of days. I should have gone out and had my dentures relined while I waited for the internet to finally come up, but I sat her mulling over [...]

I admit I have been quite a slacker lately when it comes to writing. After I check my email I check my friend’s blogs to see if they have written anything lately and am disappointed when they haven’t. I don’t have much room to talk! So, this is my attempt to catch everyone up on [...]
