Been a while since I logged on here. Looks like everything has gone a little sideways!
Nothing new here, been working and living and generally avoiding social media for the last few weeks.
Why I haven't gotten much knitting done recently-
But the blanket HAS been progressing, it should be done by April at the rate I am going. Already, it covers me very well!
And I've been painting a few gnome ceramic statuettes. We had picked up 9 of these the year we moved into our house but only finished 3 of them before the place we were painting and firing them at went out of business. I found the last 6 while cleaning out some shelves over the winter and decided that they needed to be completed. These are Ninja Gnomes, they sneak in to do their work and are much more stealthy than your garden variety of gnomes.
They start out as white ceramic, and since we can't get access to a kiln or the right paints anymore, I've primed them and then am using acrylic paint on them. With a clear coat to protect them once I am done.
In other news, I've been on an food elimination diet since mid January and am now avoiding all dairy, wheat, eggs, seafood, and peanut butter. We've confirmed my egg allergy and a sensitivity to raw peppers and possibly paprika. It will probably be a few more months before I can start slowly adding things back in.
Meanwhile, the cats are cute, work keeps me busy, and we are looking forward to a spring and summer full of geocaching and gaming and hanging out with friends.
Here is one more shot of Kimba and Tiger being cute tonight after I finished cleaning the living room. :)
I'll try to be around a bit more, lets hope this site continues to exist!
