Yes, it's good to be home, no matter how much of a disaster home is right now. Bj and I got home very early on Saturday morning from a trip down to California. We went down to take grandpa's remains to rest with his wife at Riverside National Cemetery. It was sad, as I knew …

I couldn’t live like that.
So yesterday we had our windows dropped off by a friend (who sells windows, convenient, no?). I was showing him around and I said, "I just can't wait until everything is clean." And he said something like, "Ya, I couldn't live like this." That's when I realized that it really is crazy. I'm freaking pregnant! …
Thank you so much!
Spell check not working (actually over working, every word, EVERY ONE came up as mis-spelled), so read at your own risk. 🙂 First of all a huge thank you to everyone that has sent well wishes our way in the last week (and month really). We have loved reading them, and have felt overwhelmed by …
The other BIG thing
Oh ya, about that. This is what our attic looked like about a week ago. We started demo with out our permit (not illegal or anything, just risky because you can’t actually build until you get the permit). Guess what? Our permit had hold ups, we had to get new drawings (which was terrible because …
Update… we ARE crazy
I probably won’t be blogging for a week, unless the "spotty Internet on the island" comes through for me. That’s right Bj and I are headed to North Carolina. We’re still going to Learnfest. It is a bit crazy. Grandpa was super sweet last night when Bj went to hang out with him at the …
Master Disaster
Oh blog, I’ve been avoiding you. I love cheery little posts and things of that nature. It seems that things have been getting a wee bit out of control over here. Grandpa, remodel, even knitting = problems. First up grandpa. He was recovering from his hip replacement fine for a few days, we knew he …
No Shoes… I mean it!
Today I had a very productive day… of the not so fun kind. Last week I had tried to scrub my floors but for some reason I just could not be at all comfortable bending over, kneeling and doing it then. I believe I called Bj at work and sobbed that I was a useless …
Thanks Brent!
Yesterday morning my brother called to tell me they had just been to an estate sale I should check out, full of sewing and crafty goodness. So Bj and I decided to take our walk early and go to it. Boy am I glad he called us, the house was a weird sort of time …
Baby Love
Since I’m not done with the "yarn that will never end" I thought I’d share some lovely little things that I’ve gotten lately. My dad and brother might be more excited than anyone about the little one. My dad got baby that little mini Roots shirt. I think the days of him coming back from …
Spinning and Digging
Super busy crazy weekend. Good though, wedding + visits always equal good. On Friday night Sciarrino took me for an early birthday present to Eugene. We went to see this. So wonderful! Beautiful stories of birth, and strong woman we are not afraid to enjoy it! We also went to a fabulous yarn shop (check …
