Spread the loveI have been dwelling on what topics to discuss for months, and how to write out the thoughts that appear in my head. Sure I could report on the woolly gatherings and adventures, yet sometimes I want to write something from the heart. Recently a friend had forwarded a quote to me by…
Spread the loveToday was a great day for the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (aka: Virginia Tech). The Hokies rebounded from the beating they received from Miami two weeks ago and POUNDED our arch-enemy, the University of Virginia. Not only did we win hands down, but Miami also lost to Georgia Tech. That gives…
Spread the loveBefore starting the History Unwound Retreat (which is scheduled for March 13-15, 2015 by the way), I have always been fascinated by period fashions. Whether it be 12th century Japanese robes, 20th century fisherman sweaters, and ancient Viking dress, I am intrigued by not only the “what” but also the “why” such items…
Spread the loveHey there! Bet ya thought I was going to stop writing for good, huh? Here is the quick (okay, not so quick) and dirty lowdown of the long weekend for you all after we dropped off the bunnies at the petsitter. And on Friday, I received my Project Spectrum postcard from my partner…
Spread the loveTuesday during lunch I finally finished Aidan’s booty “shoes” which only needed to be seamed and laced. I began using the Uggs Baby Booty pattern on the “Oh Baby!” Knitty Gritty episode, but I ended up revamping the entire pattern and making it my own. They were part of my “Show and Tell”…
Spread the loveWednesday night on the tenth proved to be a very fun and educational round of learning. After being introduced by Vickie of Island Yarn Company to their fabulous president Kate, I joined the Metro West Guild and attended my first meeting at the public library in Needham, MA. The group was a lively…

People are SICK!!
How distressing – I am so sorry.
We’re all just stunned.
I can imagine what Blacksburg is going thru – we’re 50 miles away!
(((hugs)))
Yikes! How scary!
That is horrifying! Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, families and students; I can’t even get my mind around the whole catastrophe.
You have my sympathies. It was a shock when it happened in Great Barrington, too. And you know you can’t do a damn thing about it having happened, really, other than try to help others deal, and yourself.
That said, anything I can do?
What an awful story. My thoughts are with all the victims.
I saw this today on the Internet at work. The numbers kept going up and up and the day went on.
They are still trying to identify bodies. Can you imagine if you were a parent waiting to hear?
This is so awful. I’ll do some chanting for them (and you) at the Zen Center tomorrow night.
Ugh! Horrible! Sorry…don’t know what else to say…
I’m so sorry. Listened to the NPR coverage yesterday in stunned silence. Can’t grasp what went on in his mind. So many families grieving…
I can barely fathom this tragedy as an unconnected stranger. You must be in a rough spot. [hugs!]
I’m still in shock. How can one person kill 32 others at one go?
My prayers for the innocent victims.
Oh, no! Such a scary event made more horrible because you have a connection to the place. I’m so sorry. Take care.
Oh my gosh, I had no idea you are an alumni from there. It’s such a sad and disturbing story – and I’m sure it’s a million times worse for all who have gone to that school. Take care of yourself.
It took me until this evening to remember who it was that I read who went to VA Tech. I’m so sorry for how it’s going to change how you feel about your school.
So senseless…tough to wrap my head around this tragedy. Hug a lot of bunnies.
Oh, Kimberly, I’m so sorry. I was worried about you and the storm when I didn’t hear from you (about that silly sock yarn swap) so I checked your web page. I hope you don’t mind. This is such a devastating, impossible thing to understand. What a tragedy.
=( This is absolutely dreadful. The shock must be immense for you since you are much closely connected to VT.
I have no words….
Awful and unexplainable.
