I like to think I am industrious in spurts, and I often find myself looking for excuses to just laze by the fire with tea and my cat ;) <br />xoamandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09481345314712596782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309722443288951322.post-51622434004585508372017-11-10T19:40:35.250-05:002017-11-10T19:40:35.250-05:00thank you ,Terri~ I really appreciate your kind an...thank you ,Terri~ I really appreciate your kind and thoughtful words. I do stay busy, for sure, but I also work pretty diligently at keeping things at a not-overwhelming level. And I often feel like a child in the way I am always, always searching out the pretty little bits in the day-to-day. <br />:)amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09481345314712596782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309722443288951322.post-8621808439830324472017-11-10T19:38:34.495-05:002017-11-10T19:38:34.495-05:00thank you, thank you!

I need to get another something on the needles- I do love having some knitting to pick up when I feel like it (but am nowhere near as dedicated (or talented at it!) as many knitters I know). And yes- FINALLY. took three weeks after I was supposed to start getting it. Alas, here I am again- it is Saturday night and last week's Sunday Times is still much unread. sigh.amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09481345314712596782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309722443288951322.post-43303802904531204912017-11-10T19:36:29.340-05:002017-11-10T19:36:29.340-05:00thank you!
