I have not been faithful in keeping up with this journal. Sometimes life gets in the way of good intentions. I will get back on the ball soon with more crochet talk but, in the meantime, share a chuckle with me. I don’t often laugh out loud while surfing the ole WWW, but this is [...]

Regardless of your political leanings, you have to admit that this guy is brilliantly funny. Enjoy.

Sometimes, words are not enough. As I watched the following video, I was brought to tears at the simple majesty of the spectacle. Please share a moment to witness absolute beauty.

It is currently 5:00 pm and the thermometer is registering 86° F. This may not seem unusual or astounding in your neck of the woods, but in my little corner of the universe, about 10 miles due east of the Golden Gate along the shores of San Francisco Bay, it’s hot at hell. You [...]

Mother’s Day is always hard - and Christmas and her birthday and any other day we shared in a special way. She was my age now when she died. At the time, 58 seemed old enough, but not old enough to die. She left so many questions unanswered and sentiments unexpressed. The last time [...]

OK. Here’s the rub. I am an admitted snob regarding the English language. Errors in grammar, punctuation, pronunciation and spelling drive me around the bend. I readily confess that I am not perfect. An occasional gem of grammatical inaccuracy will escape my lips. I have often experienced a brain cramp which inhibits the correct spelling [...]

I have no particular reason for including this photo other than it is of a place of great significance in my life and I have spent many blissful hours crocheting while soaking in that scenery. If any one of you recognizes that view, let me know. We need to talk.

I’ve been wondering whether I made the right decision in returning to the chorus after the extended LOA. In my 25 years of association with the chorus, this is really the first time I have actually considered leaving. It’s not exciting for me anymore; it’s not as rewarding as it should be. I feel [...]

I am in a quandry as to which direction I wish to take this little enterprise. It is tempting to focus on crochet, since it has become my livelihood; but I find writing of crochet to be rather dull and limiting, at least for me. Should I make this more personal? Should I risk exposing [...]
