Adventures

They have been many and varied. I am now on Ravelry. I continue to work at my mind blowingly educational job. [The FBI paid us a visit recently. Can't say more due to confidentiality.] I got a puppy last summer, which explains why the gap since my last post.

I'm working on knitting lace. I'll have pictures to post soon.

There are some things that I want to do. Here is a list:

---Take an agility class with my puppy

---Learn to dye yarn

---Get a sea kayak and learn to do all the skills to travel safely in
the San Juan Islands

---knit a lace shaw

---Learn to crochet Irish lace

---Build a pair of end tables and a coffee table in craftsman or
mission or Stickley style
[I've never built anything in wood before.]

---Tell some stories from my day job....this is a challenge because I can't breech confidentiality

Any time I learn a new skill or start a new project or read about a new era of history, or what ever, it is an adventure for me. New problems or situations at work are adventures. I never expected to live to the age of 18 and was stunned when I turned 21. Everything that happened in my life after that is gravy and adventures.
