Singularly unexciting

Go read a very eloquent post that Christine of Knitting on Trial wrote about the essence of blogging.

Lorinda is having two contests – leave comments about your favorite holiday tradition and your favorite holiday memory by December 18. Knitterly prizes for knitters, non-knitterly prizes for non-knitters.

Ok, although I usually don’t do memes, I thought this was fun – I first ran into it over at Maryse’s: What was the first sentence that you posted each month of 2006? (I learned that my first sentences were almost uniformly boring! Yikes.)

January
I’ve read a lot of knitting resolutions over the past few days, which got me thinking about what my knitting resolutions might be. Pumpkinmama’s list finally inspired me to stop thinking and start listing.

February
Thank you all so much for your well wishes!!
(I had the flu for the previous 3 days!)

March
As you might’ve read on Scout’s blog, she and I are working on an early October meetup in New Mexico. New Mexico is one of my favorite places – I spend an amazing amount of time gawking at the sky.
(*sniff* The meetup that didn’t happen due to a sick Chaos)

April
This starts with five overview shots and then a few detail shots of some of my favorite things.
(This was for Flash Your Stash.)

May
Not blech regarding the weekend, which was very fun, but blech is how I’m feeling today.
(Just back from the Midwest Master’s at Neenah, Wisconsin.)

June
You might become confused while reading this post and think that we’ve skipped right over June Blue to July Purple in Project Spectrum.

July
My Saturday sky is unsettled.

August
You might’ve noticed that things are changing around here.

September
Domesticat is having a contest to celebrate her second year of knitting and that she and Duck are moving.

October
Megan is participating in the Tour de Cure.
(I started to fear that contest announcements would be the rest of my first sentences…)

November
Hope no one’s got a Halloween sugar hangover this morning!

December
Xanthan gum!

Ok, for surviving all of that, I present Sir Wooliam and Wee Wooliam, in the window of a Pendleton store.

Not enough compensation? Well, ok then…

  1. Oh my god. I love that Wooliam. That’s the kind of thing my mother would have bought in a heartbeat. Love it!

    And I remember almost every one of your first sentences. Especially February — I remember you being sick and not posting for a few days and then I think you posted as Chaos, saying you were sick and to leave a message after the tone. Or maybe you didn’t and I’m just really screwed up. LOL!

  2. Chris- You mean you left the Wooliams there? They would have come home with me.
    Cats are very talented like that- they can do anything from an upside-down position.

  3. Why do you do such things? You know I’m weak! Well, they didn’t have Sir Wooliam and Wee Wooliam in their online store but they were haing a sale.

  4. Okay. If I got one of those Sir Wooliam things, it would be all over my house in very minute pieces by the end of the day. Gawd, would the dachshunds ever love one of those…….

    thanks for the shout out……..I’m blushing….

  5. Sir Wooliam and Wee Wooliam are so cute! I know if I brought something like that home, Zoe Ferret would steal it. But Chaos is cuter because being upside down is always cuter.

  6. I love the variety you put into your blog. There’s always something intriguing — cute things, deep thoughts, and of course…a bit of Chaos and Mayhem.

  7. Aw, Chaos looks so hug and kissable! Yeah, what’s with leaving the Wooliams behind? They would have come home with me to promptly freak out the little Dudes!
