Yes, I’m still crocheting! Winter is a great time for playing with yarn – so many warm fluffy things I can make!

Civic Duty
Posted in Life of the Lintee Bean, tagged jury duty on December 29, 2009|
I received a jury summons. This little piece of mail fills most people with dread, but not me. Most times (and this was no exception) I’m called to serve at the courthouse downtown, a mere city block from where I work. It’s easy to get to, and if I’m dismissed early I can go to work afterward. I generally assume I’ll be dismissed early. Lawyers NEVER want me on their clients’ jury. It takes only one bit of information to make up their minds – that my occupation has something to do with insurance.
Assuming I wouldn’t actually have to BE a juror, I was counting on a few relaxing hours of crocheting. I may need to answer some easy questions about my occupation, lack of criminal record and lawsuits, etc. Then I could go to work for the rest of the day.
Fully caffeinated

Thanksgiving has come and gone. I love Thanksgiving. In fact, I think it’s my favorite holiday. There’s no obligation to purchase gifts, hide things, or even decorate our homes. Thanksgiving is just a day to sit back, pause, and be grateful for the good in our lives.
Among the many things I’m thankful for – COFFEE. I LOVE coffee! I appreciate caffeine in many forms – tea, soda, chocolate, etc. – but I LOVE my coffee. I can’t think of a better way to start the day than a huge (I mean HUGE) mug of hot coffee with milk and sugar-free syrup.
