So I stumbled into this really neat way of turning what seem like doodles into little works of art. It’s called Zentangle. I’m not very good at drawing. And the few things I’ve completed that gained any recognition at all have been abstract. Most of my time in school was spent doodling in my notebook […]
Rowley’s Bay
In July, we went up to Rowley’s Bay in Door County to celebrate Jerry’s mom’s birthday. It was a surprise arranged by Jerry’s dad (what an amazing husband/dad!) that the kids came up after they had already spent a day there. When Mom found out, it was certainly a surprise. We were waiting in the […]
In April
Organized Yarn
Finally! My yarn is organized! For my birthday my mom got me exactly what I asked for – stuff to put my yarn in! I took a couple pictures and thought I might post them for everyone to see as well as for her. The rectangular basket on the left contains yarn that has already […]
Havenwoods State Forest
It’s strange how you can live in a place but not visit all the fun places nearby. So, though we’ve lived here for several years we’ve never visited Havenwoods State Forest before. That’s why we went today to take some pictures. When we arrived, the sky was bright but overcast. We knew rain was coming […]
Springing Up
Our yard is seeing lots of new growth already! What a strange year we’ve had weather-wise. So I decided to take some photos of the spring growth with the new camera I got for my birthday! Here are some of the best photos. Powered by DM PhotoAlbums™ Full Screen

But since the brown grass is giving way to green grass and plants are starting to bud, I thought I’d take the opportunity to document […]
Update
There’s been so much going on! I’ve been working on knitting a couple projects that are promised to specific people. After that I plan on resuming work on my cardigan… I’ve also recently got a new job as a Pet Nanny at Milwaukee Pet Nanny. And I’m volunteering at the Wisconsin Humane Society. So my life went […]
New slippers for my chilly feet!
With the cooler autumn weather and my old nasty slippers, I thought I’d make my next pair instead of buying new ones. It was actually a really good decision. All I had to buy was the yarn, and one skein was all it took to finish a pair, so I spent less than $5 for […]
Cardigan Ready to be Reborn
A while back I started work on my first cardigan. I recently started working on it in earnest again and started to get somewhere, which is extremely exciting. However, I checked my gauge and need to start over… my gauge is too tight. At first I was really upset because I feel like I have […]
