Afternoon Moon: July 2009
http://girlinfox.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 20, 2009. Really, who am I to comment on other people's hobbies. I knit. My neighbor: well, he builds nuclear power plants. Yes, you read that right. He is building his very own nuclear power plant. Thankfully I am moving in two weeks. I am knitting on the Girasole as a house warming present to myself. If I do something wrong. No one is going to die. My new neighbors should be grateful. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Check out Interior Alaska. Yarn and the LYS.

Saturday, February 5, 2011. Thursday, February 3, 2011. I am making the classic girls holding hands (adding hair) while other knitters have added owls, hedgehogs, cowboys, families, chickies, snails, and so very much more. I am loving this project.

Thursday, February 26, 2009. As the sun goes, so shall I. I still have yet to spend my last remaining hours here on Waikiki. The plane leaves at 10pm, leaving me several more hours to soak in the sun's warmth, heartly enjoy a spicy chicken sandwich at the Cheesecake Factory, and longingly windowshop at Kate Spade's. There is so much to love about Waikiki. The next adventure cannot begin until this one is over. Monday, February 23, 2009. And on my walk to the Factory? Some bling from Tiffany? And because ...

Afternoon Moon: March 2009

Friday, March 27, 2009. My orchid was lonely. Welcoming in the morning with snow. I love March 'cause you never know what you are going to enjoy from Mother Nature. Today she blessed us with snow. My cup run'th over. My orchid was lonely. I bought her a friend. My orchids friend is more like a little sister. Small and sheltered under her bigger sister. Thursday, March 26, 2009. I love the mossy bottom. After it finishes its flowering, I will repot into the old orchids nest. Unfortunately one skein was no...

Monday, June 23, 2008. Or at least I was thinking of blogging on the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. I missed posting on the 21st as I was working 14 hour days on the house.

Afternoon Moon: January 2009
http://girlinfox.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 10, 2009. The trouble with taking vacation is. So my last blog entry left me complaining that Seattle did not have the ability to deal with snow. Roads were closed, but most importantly (to me) the airport was shut down for the night leaving me and several other hundred seasonal travelers literally out in the cold. Fortunately, we were not part of these people. Nothin' chillin' at the Holiday Inn" - Christmas SnoopDogg style. Very important airport safety. These dancers were athelets!

A journalist observes life in the far north. So I am working at the family business, a granite company, in a dusty windowless office typing out invoices and ordering earth-colored slabs that will be sliced and polished into elegant countertops for kitchens and bathrooms. We also sell grave markers. I like my new job. I know. I too am surprised. I am honored that my company has played a part in honoring the soldiers stationed at Fort Wainwright who did not make it back from this last tour in Afghanistan&#...

The day I cut off all of my hair | Murphy Dome Diaries
https://murphydomediaries.wordpress.com/2012/05/01/the-day-i-cut-off-all-of-my-hair
A journalist observes life in the far north. The day I cut off all of my hair. Almost three weeks ago, I plopped into a chair at the beauty salon, looked my hairdresser, Alicia, in the eye and told her to lop off my bra-strap-length mane. 8220;I want a pixie.” I half-hoped that she would talk me out of it. 8220;Sure, we can do that.”. Alicia turned my back to the mirror and got to work. I resolved to remained calm and not to peek until Alicia was through. She slowly turned my chair around. I checked myse...

Last day of school | Murphy Dome Diaries
https://murphydomediaries.wordpress.com/2012/05/10/last-day-of-school-26
A journalist observes life in the far north. Last day of school. Today was the last day of preschool for Jade. The parents boxed up all of the paints, blocks, plastic dinosaurs and tiny chairs while Jade and her classmates played outside. I’m going to miss this class. I got to know the pupils after sewing their self-portraits into a quilt and helping in the class once a month all year. Macey is such a little firecracker. I remember how relieved I was when I met her. I had been afraid that the oth...Ani W...
