 |  It's a blog. What kind of description would you like? |
| It's been a while since I was around this place, hasn't it? Definitely needs dusting. Quick intro, for those who don't know or remember me: I'm dragonfly, I suppose, though that is an older name, and one I haven't used in a while. I am known by a handful of names around the internet; commonthistle or thistle is the most recent. Tani-lai is another I used for a long time, and yemaya, back in the early days of my life on the interwebs. Find any of those, and you've likely found me, so say hi. Things that have changed since I was last here--I own my own business, selling hand dyed yarns and spinning fibers. There are fiber festivals where I vend, and my stuff is available in some local stores, as well. I also have a job now, one that is a good fit for me--I work and teach in a yarn store a few days a week. Between both of these, I'm generally kept busy if not out of trouble. Too busy most of the time, if I'm honest. I went back to college and got a degree in Botany, which I don't use but looks nice on the wall; I gained 60 pounds and lost 45 of them (and counting). I have four kids, two of whom are adults and two that might get there, if they change their attitudes. I spin (yarn as well as words), knit, read, write. Because it is the end of October, the writing bug is hitting hard, and I'll be starting Nano up in a few days--I do love the rush of writing that way. Hoping to stick with it this time--both the Nano and the writing in general--because it's been too long. Long enough that despite my absence of a few years, I have nothing new to put in my portfolio, and that makes me sad. When I got here today, I read some of my old blog entries--terribly depressing things, really. I am in a much better place, mentally. Physically, I think I'm in exactly the same place! The old blog is deleted, never to be seen again, I hope. The new (shiny!) one shall be full of joy, and happiness, and--okay, swearing and inappropriateness. Because after all, it's me we're talking about here. Okay, I'm off to do a bit more exploring, rediscover friends, relearn my way around the labyrinth. Happy writing! |
