staying warm
Yesterday for work I took a group of people to the holiday market downtown. It was really, really cold. This weekend I'm working at the Renegade holiday craft fair and all I can think now is THANK GOD it's inside. If I remember right, it's pretty cold in the fieldhouse, but I'll dress for it. Come see me!

the kincheloes are like sharks
Aaron noted how everyone in my family is always on a project all the time. I told him if we stop moving, we die.
Here's my dad's motorcycle/car/tricycle thing ("The Raptor") that he's designing and building from scratch. It's getting close to being done!

the color of a strangled rainbow

We went to the new Lincoln Hall last night and this will probably be the last show of the season, it's just too hard to drag yourself out for an 11:45 show when it gets dark at 4pm. The venue was a little squeaky clean, but nice and small, and the show was excellent.
Lately I've been feeling that itch to do something new and different, to travel, to have more experiences. Live life. I found myself thinking, if I can enjoy myself this much within a 2 block walk from my apartment, maybe I don't need to go anywhere. And that's a nice, cozy, happy feeling.

We went to the Farnsworth house, and I jumped off.
You can see all the photos here:
Farnsworth house
This was built in the '40s outside of Chicago by the Fox River. It's a pretty interesting story about a lady doctor who commissioned the project and of course Mies van der Rohe is pretty famous on his own.
Some of Aaron's architect friends said it was life-changing to see it in person. I don't know about all that, but it was pretty damn cool even at this bleak time of year.

something i've been meaning to do
I haven't been writing much (any) because I've been making a LOT of stuff. For a couple years I've made these organizers on request, they're for sets of interchangeable needles. I don't have a set myself so it's been really hard to make them and be sure that they work right.
I finally got the idea to see if anyone wanted to trade me, and sure enough I found a nice stranger who sent me her Knitpicks set in the mail so I could make her a free case (and a lot of others to sell). Isn't it nice when people are nice?
So anyway, here they are:
