    Has it really been a year?

    I can’t believe it, but we have finished our school year. Last Thursday was my last day with students and last Friday was my last teacher workday. I’ve been vacationing at my parents’ house, but will be going back to my house tomorrow morning at the crack of dawn. I need to pay bills and…

  • Here Goes Nothing

    Here Goes Nothing

    December was a long month for me. I did manage to get a few notable things done, including the Santa Whiskers cookies below. [Update: I can’t get any of the pictures to display. They were taken with my iPhone XS Max and I’ve converted the file format from .HEIC to .JPEG but no luck as…

  • A Crafting Update

    A Crafting Update

    Life has kept me busy.  Between work and school, I’ve neglected my crafting.  I’ve made a few things that I don’t want to show here because they are gifts, but overall I hadn’t touched knitting for quite some time.  I’ve got projects that need to be finished.  I’m looking forward to getting in my new…

    And Just Like That, It’s Over

    The semester, that is. I can’t believe I only have one semester left of graduate school standing between me and a degree.  I’m so looking forward to being done, mostly. Even though I don’t know what will happen after that.  The million dollar question. Here’s some snippets of what I’ve been up to since the…

    Cricut Easy Press Review

    I have had a fun time with the Cricut Easy Press.  In previous posts, I’ve mentioned the tea towels I have made and it has been super easy to get the vinyl to go onto the tea towel.  I’m not sure how well it will last, since I haven’t washed or dried any of them…
