This Blog's in Transition

I'm trying to move from MySpace to Blogger by way of TypePad. It's kind of like merging two households where you're trying to decide which dining room table to keep.

Good luck on this transition, Mary. And thank you for the kind post on my blog. I couldn't let the day slip away without noting its importance to me. You understand, I know.

One World One Heart

Image
I heard about this wonderful tradition that has developed in the last few years. Lisa "oceandreamer" Swifka came up with the idea of One World-One Heart in 2007 to coordinate a giveaway to introduce bloggers to one another. She and most of the participants are artists, so you could be a fortunate recipient of a piece of beautiful art. Winning the giveaway isn't really the point. (Of course, everyone likes to be a winner.) It's a way to touch other people's hearts in a sincere manner. It fosters an audience for new and established blogs. It's an icebreaker to encourage people to introduce themselves on a global level. Maybe I can knit something for next year's event, but not this year. I don't need the pressure of the deadline looming over my head. It would probably not get completed in a timely fashion. It's also possible the recipient might not live in a cold climate. My inspiration has come from this book and this CD ...

A Thanksgiving Giveaway

Image
Thanksgiving seems like the Rodney Dangerfield of holidays. There's always a mad dash from Halloween to Christmas. Okay, so maybe Thanksgiving celebrates gluttony and football. But what I like about it is that it gives me time to reflect on the good people in my life and to acknowledge the blessings I've experienced. I've decided to have a giveway. It requires no special skill. No artistic ability necessary. It would be great if you would leave a comment about one thing for which you're thankful this year. This is for the yarn lovers out there: 2 hanks (350 yards each) of superwash merino sock yarn . Sundara Yarn produced a special colorway in Tulip to celebrate Spring 2008. On November 17, I'll randomly draw the name of the lucky recipient.

My First Tattoo

Image
Over the years, I've pondered getting a tattoo. As it became a trend, it became less of a draw. Until recently. The Humane Society of Genesee County has collaborated with Millennial Ink for a fundraiser. I considered doing it last year, because I'm an advocate for animal welfare. I finally participated this year. I had made a decision of the available designs, and then realized that it was a lot larger than I anticipated. So I went with this design. I haven't shared it with many people. About every other day, I think, "why, why, why?" So far I shared it with my nephew who has several tattoos that have deep meaning for him, my best friend who thought it looked phallic, and a classmate who was surprised that my first ink wasn't dedicated to my late husband. Too late now, what's done is done. It actually looks pretty good, didn't hurt much, and seems to be healing just fine. So maybe I will be getting those 3D monarch butterflies to honor my mother ...
