I'm sure thousands of knitting blog readers around the globe are asking this question and waiting with baited breath for my return.  Unfortunately I don't have anything exotic to report like a trip to Africa that kept me out of Internet range for weeks.  No, it's the just the beginning a blog process.  I thought that I was going to quickly restyle the blog environment and change bloghosts to one that will allow comments and I have been VERY busy at work so thought I would hold off on posting until those steps were completed.  Well, of course, since I have been very busy at work I have not had time to make the changes on the blog . . . And here we are weeks later with no posts!  So I've given up on that plan and I'll just keep posting and the changes will happen when they happen.  Thanks for your patience if there is even anyone reading this!
