Uncertainty

Okay, so, I don't own a car. I take the "bus", or public transit, in this large city. It is roughly a half-hour bus ride to work. Obviously I do not live close to work!

This past Thursday the public transit union voted not to accept the collective agreement that the City had proposed. And the union is now sitting in a potential strike action pose. And rumor is that Monday morning we will not be seeing and buses on the streets of Winnipeg.

Well, at least Google Maps says it should only take 1 hour 44 minutes for me to walk to work! ;-)

Gonna Risk It!








Okay, since most of you know that I am a pretty major crafter, I have been absolutely sitting on pins and needles since finishing the blanket for Ryan and Nicole. I have made a few blankets as wedding gifts, and dishcloths as shower gifts. Well, I have been wanting to post the pictures of these items, but realized that I could NOT post until after the wedding, and since they shouldn't be reading this blog before they open it, I am going to risk posting some pictures of the blanket, and then also of the dishcloths, since I didn't get to get out to Alberta for any shower, I included them with the blanket.
