    You can always go back

    April 19, 2017

    We have a few new folks in my group and one of them said today, “Oh wow, you’re already back! That’s nuts! Who goes to Stockholm for a long weekend?” Nuts ‘R Us, apparently. I love these quick flyby trips to far-off places, and it’s my preferred way of traveling (here’s…

    Tips For Short Trips: Get In, Vacation Hard & Get Out Before Anyone Loses An Eye

    April 3, 2017

    As we were waiting in the conference room for our meeting to start, someone caught me on my phone checking out the weather in Stockholm. “When is your trip again?” he asked. “I leave in a couple of weeks,” I said. “How long are going for?” he asked. People around the…

Right now I am …

Starting to take some of the improvements from the guest room and add them to my bedroom, like this cool power outlet for the bedside table. I’m hoping it helps with the constant problem of needing to charge all devices simultaneously.


Still obsessing over Sew Over It and Lisa Comfort, the lady boss behind it all. Here is her site, YouTube vlog, and Insta. I bought pretty much every pattern they have during the recent 30% off sale.


Currently reading The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss. I need this book to help me but I don’t have enough time to read this book because I’m working nonstop, so…


Interested in these silica gel packets for my yarn stash. Does anyone out there add these to ziplock baggies of yarn?


Listening to lovely Carla Bruni singing “Quelqu’un m’a dit.”

More pics from our walk around the ruins of Llanthony Priory, just north of us. This place is nearly 1,000 years old and it felt like a dream inside a dream.
