Three years, one month and 25 days ago it all started here. Somehow in the midst of moving cross country I completely spaced and forgot to celebrate my third Blogiversary. Thanks to all of you who read and comment! Here’s to another year!
Geocaching Saturday
Despite the fact that it’s not quite warm enough yet here, it is officially spring, and Wes and I decided to celebrate that fact by exploring Kansas City a little and geocaching today. We headed out to try and find a number of caches in the Olathe Park series. In general the parks in Olathe [...]
Little red knit.
Hot off the needles, and fiery for the last days of March for Project Spectrum, I give you my new red cardigan, Ariann. This was a fun knit and I love the yarn. I especially love the color – it’s such a deep, true red, without being orange-y or fire engine-ish. The Specs: The Pattern: [...]
The newest candidate for the Darwin Awards
I heard this on the radio today and could not believe it. The DJ got it from Fark.com, but I found the original article <a href="http://www.kctv5.com/news/15698864/detail.html”>here. Deepwater Man Fatally Shoots Wife While Installing Satellite TV DEEPWATER, Mo. — Officials were trying Tuesday to decide whether to file charges against a Missouri man who fatally shot [...]
PHAT Carpentry Skillz
When Wes got home Friday night, after a beautiful 60+ degree day, he suggested that maybe we should head down to his mom’s this weekend, work on some more furniture and maybe even bring home his motorcycle. Unfortunately today it was in the 40′s and flurrying so no bike, but we did have a good [...]

So I was on the highway yesterday and I look at the semi next to me and it is a truck FULL of pigs. And my first thought isn’t “my aren’t they cute?” (They aren’t.) Nor is it “oh geez I wonder if where they’re going!” (I don’t want to know.) My first thought was [...]
Data entry is my middle name.
Today I went down to the Plaza to temp for a lending institution. It turned out that I got quite the education today, as my data entry project was in the collections department. Now in the past I haven’t had a great opinion of collections agencies or practices. I certainly heard some interesting things today, [...]
Knitter See, Knitter Do
A few days ago as I was perusing my blog feeds, I came across a little post from Lime & Violet. They declared this dress the must have prom dress for this year. Now I love a sock monkey just as much as the next person, but…. SERIOUSLY?
Work in Progress
Today’s post is all about works in progress. Right now I have quite a few going, and I don’t know how soon too many of them will be done, so in my antsy state, I photographed what I’m working on. First of all, I have again joined Project Spectrum. Project Spectrum is the brainchild of [...]
Easy.
I’ve noticed of late that I haven’t been posting as much. I attribute this to a few factors. First of all, I’m not as blessed with internet access as I once was. I’m learning in this world of temping that internet access is definitely not standard, though phones and filing definitely are. Second, I find [...]
