If you had any doubts that I have rocks in my head, please retire those doubts now. I’ve joined a “knitting challenge” for next year on the Ravelry “I Make Mittens” group. We’re going to be trying to make 11 pairs of mittens (or gloves; so long as the finished object covers your entire hand) in one year.
Not only that, but I’ve volunteered to help run the challenge…!
I’m trying to assure myself that this is nowhere near as crazy as the 10-shawls-in-2010 and similar challenges I heard about last year.

I grew up in New England, did a short stint in the U.S. Navy after high school, worked in various factories, built & renovated houses, and finally moved to the Carolinas in 1998 to start working at what was then a large regional bank and is now a really big nationwide bank.
I work doing SharePoint management site management. After work I make soap, knit, ride my motorcycle, read, watch movies & eat.
I ride a Yamaha V-Star 1300. I am pretty sure that I want to hike the Appalachian Trail someday, or possibly do a long-distance rowing trip. I'll be retiring in a few years, and hope to run a craft soap-making business to bring in some cash.

So glad that you are back to blogging regularly, especially since you stopped hanging out on Facebook.
Good luck with the mittens.
Thanks, Rachel. I’m hoping to keep it up. I realized that I could either post a lot on Rav or use that energy here on the blog. Sadly, it means that my friends on Rav aren’t seeing me as much!
But that means we get more of you! I don’t exactly stalk you around Ravelry. =P I look forward to seeing all your mittens!
