I’m writing this post on Wednesday and scheduling it to go off on Thursday, as I have a one-post-a-day policy, but I don’t know when I’ll have time to finish this one. So I might be in labor right now while you read this. Or not! Or in a quantum state of both! Schroedinger labor! Anyway. … More Fine, I Give Up
It’s the feast of the Annunciation today. I’m still pregnant, though who knows if I will still be pregnant by the end of the day. Yesterday, our due date, came and went without much fanfare. I did find out I’ve been accepted as a postulant for ordination in the Anglican Diocese of Pittsburgh – a … More Still Spinning My Wheels – Proverbially and Figuratively
Less than twenty-four hours after the last count, the new shawl design was cast off and blocking. (And two awesome test knitters are ripping through it, so an early-to-mid-April release is looking very good. I hope for sooner, but I also hope to be otherwise occupied very soon.) This meant I was down to two … More Don’t Get Me Started
Happy Pi Day, everyone! “Fallin’ in Love Chocolate Mousse Pie” “I Don’t Want Earl’s Baby Pie” (What? It’s true. I don’t want Earl’s baby.) Both recipes from here. I’ve wanted to try these since I first saw Waitress seven years ago. In reality, the experience of both pies was somewhat marred by their both having … More 3.14.15
We’ve made it to thirty-eight weeks today. I have reached the point at which, when everyone asks me how I feel, the short answer is not “I feel fine;” it’s “I feel really really pregnant.” I sleep badly most nights, I have so much relaxin in my system that my joints are all falling apart, … More Come on, Baby
Lent should really be a time for moral inventory, for an “examination of conscience,” as has ever and anon been called in spiritual circles. I have had ample prompting to so examine myself, not because I have been incredibly diligent with my Lenten disciplines (I haven’t), but because God is letting life do that for … More Moral-esque Inventory
My epic colorwork blanket has been done! Actually, it’s been done for nearly six weeks! I finished it just a day or two before we shipped out to Iqaluit. I took the time to snap these few pictures, thinking I’d blog about it while we were gone (ha!). Then I thought I’d blog about it … More Color Me Done
Time for a guest post from my mom, Linda! It’s been a long time, y’all… but here’s an update on what my mom has been doing, as her natural dyeing interests have blossomed and bloomed into her very own company, ColorStorms! ~Rebecca It was the summer of 2010 while wandering about outside 6 times a day … More The Journey to ColorStorms
Since my last post about the gluten-free experiment, I have come to a point that I am no longer gluten-free, really at all. I had intentionally mainstreamed my diet, or at least been prepared to mostly mainstream it, so that on our epic trip to the Diocese of the Arctic, I could eat whatever was … More Mainstreamed: The End of the Gluten-Free Experiment
Because, don’cha know, 27 days before Baby #2’s due date is a great time to start designing again after a 3-year hiatus. Anyone have a burning desire to test-knit for me?
