Annnnnnnd once again...

After a couple of YEARS of ignoring my blog, I have decided it is (once again) time for me to start being better at keeping it up.  This usually lasts a couple of posts and then I start to forget again... I am going to try to do better this time... once again.

So a lit of things have been happening with me over the last couple of years.  As an overview, I had started to get pretty serious in my exploration of fiber arts including knitting, crochet, felting, spinning, dyeing and (now) weaving.  I have a great job that usually allows me time to play with my toys, but I had about a year detour when I was in a pretty serious car accident.  I was out of work for about 16 months, which of course creates the catch-22... plenty of sitting around time, but no ability to play.

I was able to start out slowly... nothing fast, nothing complicated, but I progressed.  About a year into my recovery, I was able enough to haul myself a couple towns away to take a weaving class which turned out to be a mixed blessing... I LOVED it... but now I had to invest in a whole new set of toys (oh darn... lol).

I have been back at work for a few months now, am going to counseling for some emotional issues (which I may or may not blog about :P ) and I keep doing stupid stuff and hurting myself while trying to re-learn how to do things with my new physical challenges.

So there it is... the overview of the past couple of years... some of these things will be filled in/fleshed out... some I may decide need to just remain in my personal hall of humiliation and shame.  I guess we will just have to wait and see.  Since I really have no plan, rhyme or reason for this blog at this point, if there is anyone out there still reading who wants something specific, please feel free to ask.  I am not making anyone any promises anymore, but I will give it a shot  :)
