My goals for 2018 were:I hope to read new books, both fiction and non-fiction.I hope to see new movies & TV shows and not just rely on re-watching things that I'm comfortable with (but don't think this means I won't binge The Office or Dawson's Creek again - because that is ALWAYS an option).I hope… Continue reading Sustenance

Guinea Pig Sleeping Bags
I love my wee piggie. She's funny and adorable when she eats and makes me laugh when she squeaks for food. But she has this one little habit that I'm not so fond of: She pees on me.Sadly, for all their wonderful qualities, guinea pigs aren't really potty-trainable. (Some claim that their pigs are potty… Continue reading Guinea Pig Sleeping Bags
Improvisation
I was always crap at impov in college (music major here!). I had to learn to do it and I understood the concept of it.

When I was looking for verbs that I could… Continue reading Donita2018 – Sustain

But I'm so glad that we did. Because we didn't have crazy ambitious goals and timelines in our minds, we were better able to… Continue reading Donita2017 Reflection
Donita2017 Q4 – The Home stretch
Well, it's time to shut 2017 down. You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. I knit up a cowl for the hubs, to match a hat he made himself a few years ago. This was my first time knitting with Briar Rose Fibers yarn and this base was SO squishy and… Continue reading Donita2017 Q4 – The Home stretch
So I bought some Halloween fabric…
Joann's, oh Joann's, you get me every time. Joann's has this cute line of knit fabric called 'Doodles'. Apparently, you love it or hate it. Apparently, it washes up fine or it shrinks indefinitely... I made the mistake of posting some recent acquisitions on a sewing group on Facebook and got comments that looked like Yelp!… Continue reading So I bought some Halloween fabric…
