Fear

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Moving a little slow so far today. I am guessing it is due to the cooler temperatures and fresh sheets on the bed. That combination is always more snuggly. I did watch the sky lighten into the morning's pastel hues. Even though we did not get additional snow this week, the fiery skies of autumn have given way to the gentler winter hues. What did we do this week? It was back to campus and schoolwork for Amanda last Sunday. The quiet after the holiday was a welcome sound and she dove right back into her to-do list. The biggest item on it has been sent off and fingers crossed that it comes back with...

The holiday

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I am sitting by my chilly front window watching the sun shine on the wealth of snow we have. The weather decided it was time for winter to show up! Forecasters predicted three inches; we got eight. My street is snowpacked. Hopefully the main roads are clear for someone to head to school tomorrow. Guess we will see who is driving.  What did we do this week? Holidays make things a little different. Amanda had two days of classes and then headed to Long Island to spend the time off with her friend's family. Sounds like it was full of food, family, shopping and fun. They are headed back to campus today to finish out...

Cycles

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! What do I say about today? The temperature is just right outside. In fact, I turned off the heat and have the window open to feel the light, crisp breeze float over my toes. The sun is shining bright this morning and for the last few days the sky has been a brilliant shade of blue. In a way I would love to capture it for a yarn color, yet I also don't want to diminish it to something ordinary and everyday. I wasn't out of bed early enough for the sunrise today, but Tuesday's skies did not disappoint. What did we do this week? The grind of the semester is starting to pile up...

Time

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Mother Nature decided to shift the weather back to fall after our yearly Halloween snowstorm. I suppose you could call it flannel season. It's not cold enough for the heavy coat yet too cold for just a t-shirt. So, a flannel overtop takes care of everything. What did we do this week? Amanda didn't have to go off on professors that didn't hold up their end of the grading for a group project. I don't know if this is good or bad. It would have been interesting to see what happened if she had to bring her assertiveness to the table. If she ever gets tired of building devices in the future, she could make...

A spiral

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Today is the time change and while I'm sure several will be enjoying another hour of sleep, I get to enjoy another hour of craft! It's not really another hour as time is a social construct. I will enjoy getting to see the sun rise more often. What did we do this week? Amanda is in the slog portion of the semester with due dates almost every day. She believes that her Circuits exam went well and gets to register for her final undergraduate semester on Monday. I am hoping the new class we found called The Psychology of Games is interesting. Letters of rec have been requested and applications for graduate programs will be...
