So, I’ve rearranged the furniture in every room in the house, painted some, and cleaned out closets and dressers. I’ve made lots of new friends and see them and my ‘old’ friends more often. I’ve taken up walking when I can’t concentrate or need to clear my mind. Reading and thinking have and continue to [...]
Still lots of reading and thinking and working through pain-filled thoughts. It is still difficult to concentrate on my work during the day. The papers should be ready to sign soon. On a happier note, I put little Bug on the school bus for the first time this morning. She said she had a ‘fabulous’ [...]
Reading and thinking lots… trying to order my thoughts and work through the bad stuff that is happening and look to the future. I feel good most of the time, but have moments of intense sadness. Of course, Little Bug is the sunshine in my days. Today I am playing hooky with her. Currently, [...]

I thought I’d try to post a little more. Mostly, I am a photo-inspired blogger, so I’m participating in the post-a-week “thing” at wordpress. One of the topics for yesterday was about concentration. I can be very focused and actually work better that way. Multi-tasking dilutes my concentration and I am especially distracted by sound. [...]
The pattern is from LionBrand – Happy Reindeer. Bug got Rudolph for Christmas (out of Red Heart soft). I modified it to make a kitty (Caron simply soft) for one of Bug’s friends.
Well, Christmas and New Year’s Day is done and we’ve put away all the Christmas decorations. It is sad, but also a bit liberating. The decorations take up so much space and now that they are away and things from the past year are cleaned up, I feel I can breathe much easier now. There [...]
