kittens & crochet
Based on the title of this post, I’m officially turning into my great grandmother. I don’t mind that too much, though, because she was a pretty awesome lady. Anyway, if you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you know we adopted a couple of kittens last Saturday. It was something we’ve been thinking about for […]

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving! We spent much of the time hanging out in our jammies at home. It’s really what we all needed after a busy couple of weeks and right before we run the gauntlet of Christmas parties, concerts, and other holiday happenings.

basket full of yarn & crochet update
So, I have fully embraced the crocheting thing! I made three trips to the craft store last week, which is no small thing because I couldn’t drive. I had to ask someone to take me and witness me exploring this new world of yarn. I’ve actually always been drawn to yarn and have found excuses […]
