I hate to cover up Saturday’s post, but I hate to let the blog sit idle, too. I hope you will go read it if you haven’t already.
This is something I discovered earlier this month after I’d fallen off the blogging horse and before I’d climbed back on again. It’s such a cool thing, it […]Another Bookmark in the World
I hate to cover up Saturday’s post, but I hate to let the blog sit idle, too. I hope you will go read it if you haven’t already.
I recently had my first overdue library book. I don’t mean the first in the past year, or the first in the past ten years; I mean the […]Diary of a Wimpy Kid and A Girl Named Zippy
I hate to cover up yesterday’s post, but I hate to let the blog sit idle, too. I hope you will go read it if you haven’t already.
What’s on my nightstand? Diary of a Wimpy Kid, by Jeff Kinney.
I’ve been looking for this book at the library for a year-and-a-half, but it was always checked […]Weekend Site-Seeing Red
I can’t believe it. The Senate passed their version of the Orphan Works bill (S 2913). The bill was hotlined, which means:
A “hotline” is an informal term for a request to members of the Senate to agree to allow a bill or resolution to be approved by the Senate without debate or amendment. A measure […]Out and About
You can see me or us out and about here:
The Needlework Show is open and can be perused by anyone. It is, however, a wholesale trade show, so only registered retailers can place orders. This show is a great place to browse gazillions of needlework patterns and products, and there are lots of door prizes […]
Clueless in Alaska
I use Google Alerts to learn where my products are being shown or discussed. My first Alert was for the phrase “Clueless in Alaska.” I wanted to see where my book popped up.
Oh, look–there it is! (Now I’ll get an e-mail about this.)
I’m going to cancel that Alert because most of what I’m getting now […]Martha Stewart Blogging Blogs
Last week, Martha Stewart did a show on the Art of Blogging. It included facts, tips, and a Best Of. (Can you believe there are 7.4 million active blogs? And I only subscribe to a million of them.)
In conjunction with that, she’s holding a blog contest. Bloggers were invited to post comments on her blog, […]It’s He-ere…(scary music)
September 22, 2008. I woke up to this:
That is not frost; it’s snow. It’s going to melt, but still…
Hold the Ketchup…or Catch-Up
I’ve been picking up and putting down the blog reigns for several days now.
I took big blog plans with me to the TNNA Fall Needlecraft Market last weekend (and earlier this week), but apparently the airlines lost that bag. My camera went along to St. Louis, but solely for R & R; it did […]TNNA Fall NeedleArts Market
Funk & Weber Designs will be in Room 713 at the Fall NeedleArts Market. I’m on my way! I hope to share some of what goes on at a trade show, but we’ll see what time permits. I’m taking my camera.
