A knitter, among other things, who needs to put the damn phone down. Talk to me about books, movies, The Cure, cats and dogs, gardening, sourdough, the Chicago bears, and - even more sadly - the White Sox.

Almost 25 years ago I struck up a conversation with a funny, friendly guy at a Christmas Party. This morning he brought me coffee in bed so I can knit a bit before getting up. Good job younger self.

Tonight’s plans include more mosaic knitting and watching sports of all sorts. (And a pork tenderloin)

The perfect day for my Banana Jin tshirt to arrive!

A light blue t-shirt with Jin from BTS in his banana costume mashed up with the famous art piece of a banana duct taped to a wall.

I’m excited. It’s been taunting me from my queue for a while.

Started a new big project. Love this pattern. Trying to finish by the New Year. Mosaic knitting is so satisfying.

Rushmore I associate with someone I don’t like nearly as much as my husband so there’s that.

Saw it in the theater on my second date with my husband. Which is how I learned he has a very distinctive laugh that he is not afraid to deploy loudly in public.

My daughter brought home a box of Ritz Crackers. Now I have to eat a whole box of Ritz Crackers.

Do you not allow your wife to work? Couldn’t she have covered some bills while you found something else? Christ, work at a grocery store or any other thing - even if it means a smaller apartment- rather than abet all of this. There were always other options. Glad you’ve quit but boy oh boy.
