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.

The shelter where I adopted my Shadow finds unique ways to find help thanks to the outreach available with […]
  • Please Support Haiti
    Please support those in need in Haiti and all over the world. I think that Stephanie Pearl-McPhee has added a good and very timely reminder for donations pouring in right now. Her words are specific to Médecins Sans Frontières but I’ve seen similar options on other sites as well. There are directed donation sites set up for Haiti on all of their websites, bu […]
  • scarves needed
    December 15th deadline for the OFA red scarf project. Please help. I’m terribly behind in posts here, hats there, and scarves everywhere. Do what you can. Consider this my pathetic attempt. […]
