Hello? Is anyone out there?
Yes, I know it’s been a long time since I have blogged. Life sometimes gets in the way, you know?
I apologize to all my readers (are there any still out there?) and promise to blog more regularly from now on!I’m getting over my 2nd cold in two months, and thus there has been no running in a long time. Now would also be a great time for me to remind you folks that it is triple digit heat here in the desert, and when it’s already 80 degrees as the sun is rising, running just doesn’t seem too appealing. But I have plans to get back out there soon. No big races are on my calendar. Oh, except for the PF Chang Rock N Roll Marathon in January. Yep – I’m running my first full marathon! Yikes!
I’ve been knitting up a storm lately and wanted to share my latest projects. My job at the school ends tomorrow so I knit up some gifts for the teachers.
Here is Bubby the Bear
and some Dish Cloths
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

1Cute knitting!
Congrats on planning for RNR to be your first full marathon – so exciting! If you haven’t registered yet, you can use the promo code GFCPARAGON to save $10. I don’t believe it has an expiration date.
Hope you can shake the could and feel better soon!

4Welcome back and congrats on signing up for the first full marathon! I am looking forward to reading about your training. Minnesota hit 97 degrees a couple of days ago, I can’t imagine hitting triple digits already.
The bear is adorable.

15Oh YAY! So much fun to see you posting again. Hate that you’re dealing with a cold (especially when you live in a hot place – how does that happen??) How exciting to have a MARATHON in your sights! Good luck with that and let us know how it’s going.

16We’re still here, and I’m glad you’re back! How is the career switch going? And the teddy bear looks adorable. What pattern did you follow? (oh who the hell am I kidding, I couldn’t do it, I am sure, even if it was made easy enough for a beginner!)
And yep, I remember how warm it gets for you guys this time of year, because it’s actually enjoyable in the northeast!
