OK, so the school board, in its infinite wisdom canceled school Tuesday for Ida. Whole lot of us in the community thought that was silly – they certainly wouldn’t have done it 10 years ago. Total nonstarter of a tropical event. Many were scrambling to find ways to keep the kids safe and happy – [...]

I’m struggling with what I believe are gluten issues this week. If I’m right, it explains an awful lot. I’ll probably be heading over to the doc as soon as I can manage it this week. Here’s hoping.
If I do have to go gluten free, I’m a bit bummed about what that will mean for [...]

Yeah, thought I might be. ^_-
I have this perpetual urge to make little classifications and subdivisions to work I’m doing on the computer. I like to make meta-indexes – you know, stratified, taxonified collections of links to information? For instance, an index on Hawai’i (which I have), with a subpage on Maui, with a subpage [...]

Well, I’ve tried, and tried, but the whole crochet thing is just too uncomfortable right now. I’ve switched to trying to relearn knitting (I was a kid last time I really made a go of it). So far, it’s much better, though my technique is pathetic, haha. I was really getting discouraged with my lack [...]

I’ve been really struggling to get a real project done, crochet-wise. If I sit and crochet for a long period of time, my hands begin to ache through the base of my thumb, in towards my palm, and then also across the outside edge of my wrist down through my upper arms.
