Monday, Monday, so good to me.
But then, every day is a good day. There are good days at the Beach, and good days in Portland. In the not to distant future, I am sure there will be good days visiting other places.. (For instance… I have still never been to Seattle… or to the Gorge!)
My life is not without challenges, but overall, I feel blessed with good friends, family and health. And a couple of great dogs. And… a nice car, and places to live, and musical instruments, and yarn, and……
For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.
What’s in store today:
Driving to Portland, Shopping, and hanging out with Number 1.
I also practiced Appalachian Flatfooting and Clogging, going over the foundation steps, and working on the sequences. Trying to get down the Tennessee Walking Step!! I made new blog page yesterday — you can see it HERE.
Here’s what I came up with for today!
This is the $2 Ralph Lauren Vest that I picked up at the thrift store the other day. And the boots are UGGS that Number 1 no longer wanted — Yippee!
I wrapped it all in a poncho — reminds me a bit of High Plains Drifter.
And in the middle, Woolmina and a plaid flannel shirt made by American Eagle. Super comfy, and great for a long road trip.
This is me fiddling with the camera on my FUGETEK Bluetooth tripod.
And some lovely sock yarn from DGY — think I’ll start some socks to go with my vest!
On these long drives, I like to listen to audio books. This is what I am currently listening to — and loving. I heard him speak on Public Radio, and it inspired me to get the book.
More to come — so check back often!

day 95 of #tracywearswool: staying alive
Day 95 of #tracywearswool, and I'm staying alive!! It is quite interesting... I seem to be having more fun -- more of a life -- than in any other part of my life. I guess I was too busy having babies, raising them up, being married, and working hard to get ahead,...
day 94 of #tracywearswool: here comes the rain again
Day 94 of #tracywearswool, and here comes the rain again! And from what I understand, it might start raining tonight... through the end of my challenge. I may have to find and ultracool site, and an untracool outfit, for my 100th day. It is amazing to me that I...
day 93 of #tracywearswool: final countdown
Day 93 of #tracywearswool, and the final countdown week. Yeehaa! It seems to be that the t-shirt over the dress has become my uniform of sorts. Kinda looks like a skirt. And shortens it a bit. I feel like it is more efficient, in a way, not so much fabric as...
day 92 of #tracywearswool: counting flowers on the wall
Day 92 of #tracywearswool, and apparently, I can't count. There a couple of Wool&ers who started on the same day as I did -- Innnaguration Day, January 20th. And somehow I missed a post 2 or 3 days back... so this is it. I dug the photos off the cloud... and...
day 91 of #tracywearswool: brown eyed girl
Day 91 of #tracywearswool, and hey! Where did the time go?? This challenge, for me, has been a giant experiment in trying new things. It didn't start out that way but has slowly evolved into an exercise in creativity. I look at my clothes in a new way... and am...
day 90 of #tracywearswool: send in the clowns
Day 90 of #tracywearswool, and actually no need to send in the clowns... because they are already here! Today I met up with Carolyn, and we had a great time!! I met her through another wool peep -- who commented on my post -- you have to meet my friend Carolyn. ...
Did I mention my Appalachain Flatfooting and Clogging Challenge?? Check it out:
