Monday means crochet

I’ve only been crocheting for a little while. Apparently, February is National Hobby Month or something similar, so the leader of the Women’s ERG at work asked us about our hobbies. Another woman and I mentioned crochet, and we found…

What a day!

I didn’t even have time to read my personal email today until after work, when I usually do that before the workday starts. Despite meetings, I wrote and published a whole section of knowledge base articles. However, I wasn’t able…

It was a very Monday Thursday

I had three straight hours of meetings today. That simply should not happen. I didn’t schedule any of them. Two hours of them were three standard meetings that happen on regular cadences. Thankfully, they don’t often fall on the same…

Workshop Today

Donating My Time

Plinky asked, “Do you volunteer?” Not at the moment, unfortunately 🙁 I have in the past, with an online safety group, Girl Scouts, homeschooling groups, Freecycle, and other organizations. I’m looking for something to do again, since I find myself…
