I craft a lot, read a lot and drink a lot of tea here in the high desert of northern New Mexico’s mountains.

After letting me know it was time for second breakfast and the couch cave needed to be rebuilt, we can finally settle in. If I don’t come back as my cat next time around, I’m going to be pissed.

For this week’s #showmeyourknits I’ve got a finished pair of Basket Weave Rib Socks. A bit fiddly to work but I love the finished result.

Just leaving this thought on making a difference in the world here. I feel like we all want to do something big but all the small stuff is equally important right now.

Today I worked on socks. 🧶 These are a ribbed basketweave pattern and I really like the fit and how they look when finished but they are slow to knit. I’ll keep going along tho!

I finished my Cathedral Grove shawl. Design by @romidesigns.bsky.social and yarn is Annapurna from A Verb for Keeping Warm. One of my absolute favorite shawls I’ve ever knit!

I read Spillover on my vacation and what a timely read! If you’re wondering about the NBO (next big one), this one will encourage you to wear a mask. Written before COVID, it was an eerily prescient warning of what happened in the pandemic and could happen again.

I finished One Hundred Years of Solitude this week as part of my yearlong #classicbooks challenge for myself. Definitely worth the time spent with it especially surrounding themes of history repeating itself and learning from the mistakes of the past. #timely

Can’t think of a better use of my lunch break than to call a few Senators and share my thoughts on the idiocy going on in Washington right now. I definitely need another fortifying cup of tea now and try to calm down before I go back to work.
