” ‘Gonna make it through this year if it kills me’ (and it almost killed me)…”*

Posted on Posted in Uncategorized

Okay, so I failed you with the promised bloggy photos of roving and mittens and things. Ever so sorry. I’ll come through with them soon. Really, I will. The Sunrise Circle Jacket now has its buttons and I may very well wear it from now until my hopefully ever-so-far-off dying day. At which point I want to be cremated in it. I love this sweater. I really love this sweater. I’m hoping for some decent sunlight tomorrow so photographic evidence may be gathered.

I’ll spare you the year-end roundup. Let’s just call 2006 the year where I learned that blessings can kick your ass. And that the universe laughs at birth plans. And that there are some tattoos that should be delayed until the book sells.

Have a fantastic New Years. Wishing you love and luck and happiness and health in the coming year.

*Can you name this tune? Hint: it’s connected to something I did this year… Let me rephrase that. Something fun I did this year. I don’t mean the could-have-died-emergency-c-section thing. That wasn’t very much fun at all.

  24. I hear ya on the “universe laughs at birth plans”. I drew the could-have-died-emergency-c-section card also about 3 weeks ago and brought home a beautiful 4 week preemie. Best to you and your family in 2007.

  27. Happy New Year! I agree about adopting shelter animals and rescues, but I must also mention that the shelter sometimes has a foster-to-sponser program that takes shelter animals to foster parents for a few weeks for love and socializing, then they go on display indefinitely at the pet store (it’s Pet Smart here where I live), instead of back to the shelter. And they are never put down, they are at the pet shop until they are adopted. So sometimes it can work at a shop if you check out the circumstances first.

  37. Look Cari!

    33 “Chillout Tent” [Song]
    The Hold Steady
    Boy and girl go to outdoor festival, gobble too many mushrooms and wind up making out while hooked up to IVs. The verdict: “It was kinda sexy, but it was kinda creepy.”

    The Hold Steady is number 33 on Rolling Stones’ The Best 100 Songs of 2006!

    I love Kate Gilbert, too. She’s amazing. As are you!
