The place to find this blog from now on should be:
I won't be posting on this blog anymore and will have my new blog live as soon as it's ready (or knowing the impatient me, probably up before it's completely ready!!
The new blog is: A Blessed Mess (www.ablessedmess.com)
and she totally rocks. In all the recent confusion and activity I realize I forgot to tell you guys who will own Threaded Bliss tomorrow!
Among my many blessings lately, Dana being the person to whom I am handing over Threaded Bliss Yarns, a.k.a. my baby, ranks up there at the top (beat only by the fact that I basically walked away from being hit by a car, well almost walked away!). If any of you had asked me to describe the best person to take over, it would be Dana to a tee.
I know that change is often unsettling and scary but the only changes you guys will see at that awesome shop will be changes for the better. Dana's fun and creative and excited and has great taste in yarns and funny (she shares my 14 year old boy sense of humor) and spunky (in a good way) and full of great ideas for the shop and enthusiastic and nice and helpful and can both knit & crochet and since she has an accouting degree - for her, doing the books etc. won't be nearly the miserable big deal it was for me!
Please go easy on Dana at first since you know there is a learning curve but she's been hanging with me at the shop lately and she's smart as a whip and sharp as a tack so she'll be going full speed ahead in no time at all.
Join me and Emily (who is staying on!) in congratulating Dana - she's agreed to privately adopt my baby and allow me unlimited visitation priviledges in the future once new mama and her new baby bond appropriately!
here it is, the long awaited new domain name/web address for sheila's blogging. Any moment now the threadedbliss.com and threadedblissyarns.com domains will no longer point to my blog. For now the same blog will show up at ablessedmess.com (don't leave out the A!)
also my email address will be different and you can see if using the email me link on this page (on the left)
thanks
hope to see as many of you as possible tonight at Stitch and Bleep!
First of all, I am OKAY. There's some bruises, some bumps, some sprains, road rash, an ankle splint, a ridiculously swollen knee and a pair of crutches but really, I am abundantly blessed.
I wrote out a great story about all of this yesterday on a notepad, planning to post when I could get up the stairs to this computer. While I made it up here just now - it probably wasn't the best idea. Also my pain meds are kicking in so I'm headed back to bed. I'll write the story out one of these days to post.
Here's the very short version - Monday early evening (still light out) I was crossing a side street off Elliston Place and got hit by a mini-van. The driver went to jail and I got an ambulance ride to the ER. The idiot behind the wheel (of the car that hit me, NOT the ambulance!) had no license, no insurance, no registration and a stolen license plate. He lied to the cops and he also has a 7 page record of traffic accidents and violations already (and he's only 38). I'm blessed for sure because nothing is broken, I did not hit my head or hurt my back and most of all I'm not dead.
This is my swollen right knee:
If you don't get queasy easily, here's my left foot.
I'm not able to get around too much but Tim & I think that we can at least get me to SnB tomorrow night as it's going to be my last one for a while.
Also, out of this whole mess may have emerged the perfect name for my new blog:
A BLESSED MESS or maybe Focal Harmony!
You guys suggested lots of great names - many already in use and I've decided to get away from knitting as a focus (not that it's been much about knitting lately!)
if only for a little while longer.
Am trying to conjure up a new blog/domain name...I think I used up all my naming creativity coming up with "threaded bliss."
Any suggestions?????*
*"crazy cat lady blog" or any such refernce to my crazy-cat-ladyness ain't gonna fly!
I know but I'm trying to learn lots of new things these days!
