5 CommentsRestful reading time helps with crazy days
4 CommentsMonday was bad for me. Good Mondays come after Sundays where I get to prep for the week. Food prep, menus and writing my weekly plan all add up to be what makes a Monday good for me.

Handmade Knit Hats and homemade Christmas gift plans
1 CommentEvery year I have a goal to make as many homemade Christmas gifts as possible. I confess that in the past few years I’ve not make ANYthing! Great plans but no results.
THIS is the year I am going to learn to knit. I’ve wanted to learn for a long time but I’m sooooo excited to make this one of my winter projects. MANY of my ongoing projects are huge and take a lot of time to finish! Rag rugs, cross stitch, quilts and scrapbooking are just a few I am working on a little at a time.
