Schedule Shift Notice

Until April 12, 2010 I will try a revised schedule to hopefully improve writing and free up a bit of time for my back-logged Work and for pesach preparation.

The schedule is as follows:
The posts will be split over two weeks, with a kitten post every Friday.
Week one: Monday books, Wednesday fibre, Friday kitten.
Week two: Tuesday cooking, Thursday words (house, garden, travel, &c), Friday kitten.

repeat until April 12th at which point I’ll decide if I’m going to continue this revised schedule or return to daily posting.
