Because I copy Jennie, a lot.

It's true, I copy Jennie often because, well she is one of my dearest friends on this earth and besides this is about a simple subject that does not cause me (much) agita. Unlike, you know, school, work, bills, BirthWays, Dance New England. Or in other words responsibilities. Yes, yes, I signed up for all of them (well not really having a job, that's just something I apparently have to do) and I love being involved with school, BirthWays, and DNE it's just that lately it all feels suffocating. I am sure some of you can relate.

There has been absolutely no progress on the secret project, alas. However there is much movement on T'Mane's swing top which is making me very happy. I don't think it will be done before TGF's brother leaves town. Oh, yes he's in town for work just for a few days, which is making TGF do proverbial cartwheels at the prospect of hanging with her bro.

Get Busy Lady! I have a goal to knit. Something. Without having someone show me and then messing it up and walking away from it. I will let you know when to cross it off.
