Too tired to post much, but here are some pix I took!

Iceland in August
It was warm, soothing, and the whole ritual of washing, then soaking ones body, then washing again is the perfect remedy for a long flight!
Are you HOT? How about some ICE?
It’s been medically proven* that after making reservations for a cool vacation the average body temperature will lower 2-7 degrees. Seriously!**
I cheated
I couldn’t stand being away from home another day, so I drove an extra two hours today to get back to St. Paul, and I’ll drive 2 hours tomorrow to go back south to Iowa and teach at Blue Heron Knittery. Silly? Yes. Especially with the price of gas what it is. But I missed…
Last Days on the Road Trip
I wasn’t the social butterfly I’ve been in the past – in fact, I spent more time napping at this TNNA than ever before (damn you, fibromyalgia!) but I DID spend a good amount of quality time making connections and touching base with folks I NEEDED to speak with.
I live for ‘scopes like this…
And now I’m off for yet another day of driving where I will see and hug many friends at the end of the road! Loopy Yarns in Chicago, WATCH OUT! [ www.loopyyarns.com ]
Rain & Pain & Knitting Gain!
I was ostensibly looking for tonic water (my roommate brought gin, which is why I love her…) and I found it at the United Dairy Farmers.
But I became so carried away with the warm, fragrant evening and rode in silly circles with my headlight flashing and a dopey grin on my face.
Finding the Joy
No matter how much work I have, there is always a small corner of joy when I’m knitting. The rhythm, the fiber, the repetition calm me, and if I’m able to divorce my nervous mind from the looming deadline, I can enjoy it thoroughly.
Barreling Through
Design is another word for organizing visual inspiration. Organizing the work is what makes life beautiful in the middle of the nutty chaos.
Busy is Good, Right?
Run, run, run, [screeech! Thump!] Run, run, run, [screeech! THUMP!]
