I appreciate everyone who's showed up and commented and clicked 'follow'. I haven't done a very good job of keeping up my end of the bargain.BUT! I've actually started a new blog over at Wordpress. Here...go look. Picture! Words! Promises to post regularly!So I'm abandoning this. I'd advise y'all to do the same. But do come visit the other blog.

I know people out there :::waves, 'Hi, Annie!'::: who manage to blog four or five or even six times a week. I can't get it together for that many posts in a month.:::sigh::: Perhaps I just don't have much to say.Actually, I have a lot to say but making the time, getting things together (like pictures and links) seems to be more than my poor Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-4739345089147449812008-12-03T00:47:00.004-05:002008-12-03T01:41:46.536-05:00Baby, baby, where did the time go?While I was busy playing with Daniel the days just slipped away and now I'm leaving for home in the morning. I have a camera full of pictures and short videos and a heart full of love and delight from being with my baby and her baby and husband.Curiously, I'll get into Detroit Metro tomorrow afternoon, weather permitting, and the next day I'll return to Metro (before starting the 225 mile drive Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-70418419024922122242008-11-27T23:34:00.008-05:002008-11-28T00:46:57.283-05:00It's still Thanksgiving here......so I can still wish you all a happy Thanksgiving. We are such a blessed nation, despite the falterings of recent days. We are still free to live where we want, believe what we want, eat what we want, say what we want, worship who or what we want (or not,) live our lives free from most oppression. How can we not be thankful?Although I had to leave some beloved family at home (I'll be home soon,Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-1907326254831452992008-11-23T00:33:00.002-05:002008-11-23T00:44:50.351-05:00You take my breath away...I'm in Shreveport, Louisiana. I arrived late this afternoon after an uneventful flight out of Detroit (there was that little bit where we ran into a huge snowstorm and had to climb 4,000 feet to get over it and the turbulence it caused) but for all intents and purposes it was a fine flight. I had a seat to myself, unusual at this time of year, and nice not to be so crowded.Once landed, I headed Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-80367715860545448842008-11-16T13:42:00.002-05:002008-11-16T23:21:22.181-05:00Halp?Blogger is really different now. I'm stymied...how and where do I put the code to put the 'Subscribe to Bloglines' button here?Halp? Please?ETA: Never mind. I figured it out!

Turned on the laptop this morning and my 'To Knit, Perchance To Dream...' homepage was gone. Gave me an error message. In my email was the official notification that I'd canceled the account. Okay, guys. Now where's the money y'all took out of my Paypal account? Just waiting for it to be refunded.So here..you're stuck with me in this little hole-in-the-internet blog.

My baby and her baby. I leave on November 22 and will be back on December 3rd. Yay! I simply cannot wait to squeeze those cheeks. Daniel and I will do our very best to let his mommy and daddy have a little time alone, a little time to go to dinner and a movie, perhaps. And then, the day after I leave, Nick (Katy's brother) arrives for a week's stay, being the Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-86093323880829751602008-11-11T11:02:00.002-05:002008-11-11T11:11:10.817-05:00This is gonna take some time...I remember when I shut down my Blogger blog. At the time I did, it was something beautiful. Totally customized and with everything I needed and wanted. As I made the transition to my own domain, I closed things down. Took down the custom banner (which I put up over at the other blog), deleted my links and Bloglines feed, folded my tents and left.I'm wondering if I really need to make this the Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-9054060643240477972008-11-11T00:24:00.005-05:002008-11-11T00:40:15.439-05:00It looks a little different in here... I've had my blog hosted by a company called PowWeb/Tucows for almost four years. At the time I checked into purchasing my own domain and having a blog host, I had a blog here on Blogger, and knew nothing about stuff like Typepad and others. It took me weeks to figure out what I was doing. I had to have someplace to host my pictures, so I purchased Photobucket and Flickr accounts. I needed some Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-9541536482266616322008-09-24T11:41:00.002-04:002008-09-24T11:45:42.802-04:00Here I am, once again...I left Blogger more than two and a half years ago. Even so, when I bought my own domain I came back here and made sure I had 'Perchance To Knit...' reserved just in case...by creating this blog. Now it's time for my domain to renew and I'm not so sure that I want to fork out the annual $100+ to keep something that I seldom use any more.So here I am again. I don't know if I'll even post a link on Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21456421.post-1138136156707485482006-01-24T15:42:00.000-05:002006-01-24T15:55:56.716-05:00Meet Bob.Bob, a lovely Majacraft Rose, will be the one helping me spin new and wonderful yarns from here on out. This is not by any means to exclude my old Louet S10 (previously and pretty much always referred to as "my old Louet S10") as there are still many, many more yards of yarn to come through its orfice (that almost sounds dirty, doesn't it!?)Nevertheless, Bob is quite a wheel, new to me this week Susiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13351136162377668988noreply@blogger.com0
