thanksgiving
Posted by: cut the cord on: December 4, 2008
Whew! I am ready for this week to be over. Thanksgiving was great, but a little bit nutty. There was dress-trying-on, dog sitting, family visiting, two birthday parties, the annual 5K turkey trot in our neighborhood, and of course lots of good eating! My grandma helped me put my winder and umbrella thing up to [...]
craziness!
Posted by: cut the cord on: November 24, 2008
Things have been a little nutty since the engagement – we’ve been planning as best we can. We visited 4 venues this weekend and one in particular looks really, really perfect. Jason wrote a bit about it in our blog: http://bellsoftheball.wordpress.com.
Yesterday, Rufus’ trainer, Tati, came and visited us so that we could take him to [...]

Whew! Sleepy day today after getting up early to vote. I have my fingers crossed for a D victory!
I’m getting very excited about my upcoming vacations. I need a break! On Friday night Jason, Rufus and I will go to the lake until Tuesday. It’ll be nice and relaxing… and lots of time for knitting! [...]

Had to turn the heat on this morning – Rufus was freezing… as was I. Our walk was frigid – pitch black out since the clouds were covering the little sun that would have been there and raining. Oh, and like 40 degrees. BRR!!!
I finished Lane’s legwarmies last night and started on her mittens! Yay!
It [...]
Yellow Stocking Knitting DONE!
Posted by: cut the cord on: October 22, 2008
It needs to be blocked and the ends need to be woven in, but I’ve finished knitting it! I’m pretty impressed at how quickly I did it!
Next up, the green one. It’s green where this one is yellow, red where this one is blue, and blue where this one is red. Basically, I’m sick of [...]

little ditty
Posted by: cut the cord on: October 8, 2008
I have put a pause on my knitting the past couple of days because my fingers/hands/wrists have been hurting. However, I DID whip up this cute little ditty this weekend for Baby Belle (who has yet to be born… but will be here any day now!!!!):
I spent over $200 on yarn on Monday [...]
oh, Rufus…
Posted by: cut the cord on: October 2, 2008
This is why Rufus is just about as much trouble as a 2 year old:
This was my sock from Australia… which was made in Nepal… but nevermind that.
My socks are no more! I left the bedroom door open for literally 30 seconds – SECONDS! – and he ran in and did this. He’s like a [...]
DUMB! SO, SO DUMB!!!!

I know I just wrote a post but….
Oh. My. God. I just realized something: When I got rid of stuff to Good Will when I was cleaning out my old room, I gave away a scarf made out of REALLY cool yarn and an old sweater. I am so mad at myself now I don’t [...]
