PROGRAMMING NOTE from the Author and Archivist


So obviously I just stopped blogging on this platform. I'll get back to it eventually. Or not. I'm taking a break from all social media. It seemed necessary for my mental health.

The last few years have been busy and … challenging:

- 2015 Happened.
- 2016 Let's call it The Lost Year. (Obviously words failed me.)
- 2017 about broke me. Literally. Mentally.
- 2018 was ridiculous, proving 2017 was just a warm up. (Good thing I was already broken so it couldn't hurt as much.#2018TrashCanFire I thought things were going okay, but maybe not?)

- 2019 was such a blur. I know there were highlights, but then stuff happened and carried into the next year...

- And then in March#2020 really took a turn. Who can even categorize 2020? Do we dare?


I kinda want a do-over of some of the last few years. But life doesn’t work that way.


So for now, I'm hunkering down. Regrouping. Trying to stay safe and sort some stuff out.


Stay safe everyone. Stay well.

Auntie Nettie's Merchandise 2009, 1st 40!

Auntie Nettie was looking in her project book the other day and realized that she had somehow already completed 40 projects this year. That's not counting the three projects that have been started and aren't done yet, and the handbag that she did on Sunday night and has to piece together! No wonder her fingers and hands hurt. Some of these pictures have been posted before, as A.N. has managed to document most of the projects this year. There are now trunks and trunks (and TRUNKS) full of scarves, afghans, and other projects, so she really must plan a spring boutique or get the on-line store going. [Auntie needs a business manager to run the business -- or fewer jobs.]

Until then, if you see anything you like just drop a line or a comment. Auntie's happy to give dimensions, prices, and care suggestions off-line.
