Pressing Pause – Again
Bodies are not static. They change, grow, get injured, heal. Well, mostly they heal. The older we get, the more wear and tear we inflict on ourselves, the more injuries pile up…the longer it takes *to* heal. And sometimes we inadvertently injure ourselves in the pursuit of ‘recovery’. So it was this week. I’ve…

A Gift of Learning
throwing the shuttle supported from below Welp, I’m seeing places reminding folk that giving the gift of learning is a nice gift to give. No wrapping, no packaging to recycle, so space required on the already full shelves. (I’m not talking about bookshelves, obs.) So once again for old time sake: School of Sweet…

Holiday Season
After Black Friday… In NA the time for holiday purchases now ramps up. Since we bought ourselves a new HVAC system this year, that will be our ‘holiday’ gift giving to each other for, oh, years… As someone who largely made the majority of her income from producing things, I have mixed feelings about…

Onwards
The BOGO sale in my ko-shop is now over. There are still bargains to be had, as three of the latest towels are priced to sell. Two are cotton warp with linen weft, the other is cotton warp with a cotton/hemp weft. In my mission to weave down my stash, my inventory of finished…

Gratitude
For me, gratitude is not a one-day-a-year thing. It is a survival technique. When things are going poorly (as they so often are, these days) I get through the moment of despair by counting up my ‘blessings’. I have much to be grateful for. Some of the things I am grateful for are tinged…
