Woodchuck Acres: Satiated and saturated
http://woodchuckacres.blogspot.com/2015/08/satiated-and-saturated.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2015. When I read about a Chicagoland garden tour on the gardeninacity. Blog, I decided it sounded like a good excuse to get out of town. The tour is a triennial event sponsored by the North Park Village chapter. Of the Wild Ones. And features member gardens as well as community gardens. I went in hopes of garnering some fresh ideas for my yard and came away with a brain overflowing with possibilities. The Loyola Beach Dunes. My garden is full of fences, so I was glad to see I'm not t...

Woodchuck Acres: A mighty fortress is my garden
http://woodchuckacres.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-mighty-fortress-is-my-garden.html
Thursday, July 30, 2015. A mighty fortress is my garden. I wasn't too upset about the broccoli, as I had harvested the main heads a while back and the side shoots were petering out. But the sweet potatoes - argh! And, to add insult to injury, *something* chomped the branches on one of my new cherry trees. Double argh! I planned to protect them from winter injury by rabbits but I did not expect to have to worry about summer damage. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Fort Wayne, Indiana, United States.

Woodchuck Acres: Who needs television?
http://woodchuckacres.blogspot.com/2008/12/who-needs-television.html
Saturday, December 20, 2008. A "free" day can hang on some like a burden, but not me. On the one hand, it's an opportunity to do nothing, and I'm always up for that. On the other, why waste it? My free day included a project, a chore, and an emergency. The original plans for the new room included a spot for the litter box, but I did not want it out in the open. Enter the "cat washroom" from Plow and Hearth. It arrived the other day, but some (all) assembly was required. But what the hey. Now, the chore.

Bitten by Knittin'...: Thought process
http://bittenbyknittin.blogspot.com/2015/03/thought-process.html
Thursday, March 12, 2015. Even though I am not knitting DK boot socks right now, I like to have a pair of socks on the needles at all times. At first, I picked out the pattern for Errant Socks (from Mason-Dixon Knitting Outside the Lines. But since I had already started the toe, I stayed with the more rounded one from the Errant Socks pattern. Does this make sense? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Between Rome and Paradise.

Bitten by Knittin'...: I Hate Borders
http://bittenbyknittin.blogspot.com/2007/01/i-hate-borders.html
Thursday, January 25, 2007. To be my favorite store. Books, music, coffee - what more could a body want? Well, last night I discovered that a little organization would be nice. What happened was this: Upon the recommendation of forum readers at Knitter's Review. I went in search of. Borders' online inventory indicated it was in stock, and I checked again when I got to the store. But, even with two of us looking, we could not find the book. I don't like Barnes and Noble. I agree finding a needle in a hays...

Woodchuck Acres: Starting to feel like summer
http://woodchuckacres.blogspot.com/2009/06/starting-to-feel-like-summer.html
Sunday, June 21, 2009. Starting to feel like summer. There is something in the air, a shift in temperature and humidity and universal vibe, that occurs in June and that makes us say, "NOW it feels like summer! It is still not brutally hot or suffocatingly humid, but it is also no longer springlike out there. Or maybe it is the firecrackers. The latest love of my life is this:. The daylilies are starting to bloom. This is Stella:. My love/hate relationship continues with my neighbor's mulberry tree. I...

October Rose: A resolution with a plan for 2015
http://octoberrose.blogspot.com/2015/01/a-resolution-with-plan-for-2015.html
The rest of my life. Thursday, January 01, 2015. A resolution with a plan for 2015. When I retired from my job (which, by the way, I do NOT miss at all), I decided not to take on anything new for at least six months. That turned out to be a good thing, as the final remodeling of the house was underway and continued to be underway for what seemed like an eternity. Once that was complete. I settled into what I had planned to do all along during retirement. And very soon became a bit bored. Monday evening, ...

October Rose: To sleep, perchance to sleep
http://octoberrose.blogspot.com/2009/09/to-sleep-perchance-to-sleep.html
The rest of my life. Friday, September 18, 2009. To sleep, perchance to sleep. The new mattress was delivered last Saturday morning. Good-bye, saggy pillow top, hello Therapedic New Castle! Already my back feels better. I also can sleep on my left side without feeling like my lungs are being compressed, something I have not done for quite some time now; I blamed my scoliosis but I guess it was just the mattress. I hope not, because now that the new mattress smell has dissipated, I am liking it. A lot.

October Rose: Homewrecker
http://octoberrose.blogspot.com/2015/07/homewrecker.html
The rest of my life. Saturday, July 11, 2015. I've been calling the cat-with-no-name. Beau", which rhymes with "NO! Some days, Finn and Beau get along fine. Other times, I think Finn is going to kill Beau, pinning him to the floor and administering some punishing bites. And yet, Beau keeps coming back for more. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Between Rome and Paradise. How I almost killed my dog. SCOTUS, I respectfully disagree. Six weeks since my last post, time for another. Happy anniversary to us.
