This bike is da bomb.
Someday I will have a cruiser... someday. :)
Hopefully I can rent one to cruise around D-town tomorrow.

Where does the time go?!!

So... it's been a long time since the last post. I have been getting things done with Americorps :) and trying to find a job for after Americorps :( . If only I could woo the economy with cake... how about a cupcake stimulus plan? Cupcakes make everyone happy. And it's a shovel-ready project. I've got all the ingredients right here. (I would post a cupcake photo, but they've all been eaten.)

Pete is slicing though his accounting program with samurai-like efficiency. Only one quarter left!! (I'm not sure that he'd agree with me, but I really wanted to include a samurai reference.) We are both looking forward to more free time.

But I keep wondering if there is such a thing as free time in The Real World. I've spend so much time in schools (outdoors or indoors) that I think my view of reality might be a little off. Hmmmmmm....

At least I've found the time to do some crafty stuff in the past couple of months. (Usually in my "hell or high water" mode, as Pete calls it.)

Mr. Stegs from X-treme Knitting

Baby Quilt for little Maggie! Yay for cartwheeling cat fabric!

Another dino! Trice, also from X-treme Knitting. (Say it again Pete... "X-TREME!")

Christmas Stockings, pattern from American Patchwork & Quilting.
(Thanks Mutti for the subscription!!)

So I guess my time went to craftiness. :) I have a few more things, but no photos. More photos soon.

One more...

More fun with wordle!

Wordle is just too much fun... this is from the lyrics to the song Video by India Arie... wish I could make it bigger!

Fun with Wordle

Thanks Kati for your blog entry on Wordle! (Check it out... you can link all sorts of text to make fun word designs.) I decided to put in Obama's blog to see what design it made... since we've been following the election almost obsessively.

Harry Potter and the Masters of Education

Yea!! It's good to be a master in something. This is a photo of part of my IslandWood cohort. Brenda suggested that we wear the hoods. Unfortunately we were not presented with our magic wands at the ceremony. I guess that comes later. :)
