I've moved

Due to much consternation with the Blogger site and a change in email addresses, etc. I've moved. Dusting off this one proved more trouble than it's worth so if you're still reading this years ignored babble, you will need to find me at my new cyber-residence at Wordpress henceforth.

Time to dust off the old blog

Wow. Has it really been a year and a half since I last attempted this blog thing? Where does the time go? Since my last post, I've acquired 2 grandkids, more outside kitties than I can count, switched from a quilt-aholic to a knitting fiend, divorced my gall bladder, purchased a new car, celebrated my 10th anniversary while still being baffled at how so many people seem to hate marriage, visited Phoenix, Legoland in Carlsbad, CA and Washington, DC, completed both my 12th and 13th seasons as a Civil War reenactor and acquired my 3rd sewing machine (first was my mom's old Bernina. We've been in therapy for years but can't seem to get along, my 2nd is Tess, blogged about here, 3rd is Abagail, an 1893 Singer hand crank who sews like a champ and makes me very happy, though I did have to promise my husband I'd only grow the collection if I can find one OLDER than the current models). Oh, and I've arrived in the world- as of this past weekend, I have a refrigerator with ice and water in the door. All things considered life is good. So I think I'm gonna try this blog thing again to keep track of all the things that make it good. Probably with the occasional rant thrown in cuz, well, it's what I do. But mostly I think I'll stick to the things that make me happy. Saved a few old posts in my archives for various reasons and we'll start the story again from here and see where it goes. Stay tuned for more updates!
