Friday, April 04, 2003 We had an ice storm last night that left a thick glaze on every surface, making driving Mona Lisa to school this morning a perilous venture. As we drove, we saw a crow crossing the street. It was walking slowly, in a very dignified manner. It caught our attention as much because of its poise as because it was strange that it was not flying. Slowly, slowly it crossed, head held high. When it reached the curb, it stepped up confidently and promptly slipped off and fell back into the street. It quickly but furtively looked around to take stock of any witnesses to its indignity. We feigned interest in the stop sign, a green shutter, a passing car. We've all been there and bless the strangers who do not acknowledge such events.posted by Andrea at 11:52 PM Thursday, April 03, 2003 Work continues on the blue sweater for The First Born. I am working with Douceur et Soie, which is an absolute delight. It has such a beautiful hand but the sleeves are progressing slowly. At the rate I am going, this sweater will not be done until May and the way the weather is going she may still want to wear it then because it is so cold! Actually, it is so light that it may be a good spring weight even in normal spring weather.posted by Andrea at 10:40 AM Wednesday, April 02, 2003 There are so many amazing knitting blogs out there! I hate the way that work keeps getting in the way of all the fun stuff like knitting and reading/talking about knitting and upgrading my site to have a blog roll and photographs and all of that great stuff but maybe this weekend. It could happen.posted by Andrea at 12:53 PM Sunday, March 30, 2003 I have been to Disney parks twice. Both times were as an adult, neither time involved a child and I did not pay for either visit. Last March I was in Tokyo Disney, this year in Orlando. A few observations:posted by Andrea at 7:34 PM ;id=345;action=next">Next ![]() ![]() |
