No, not to San Francisco ;) Not yet anyway!
I've moved from Blogger over to Wordpress. I like the features and templates a bit better. Make sure to change your RSS feeds if you use a blog reader.
Here's the new blog address:
http://themarieke.wordpress.com
* http://raininggrace.wordpress.com
* http://nathanandmarieke.wordpress.com
Yup, I have created another blog on top of the two I update regularly.
http://nathanandmarieke.wordpress.com
I designed it to keep family and friends updated on what's up as Nathan and I get ready and move to San Francisco. I'm gonna start by giving info on our preparations (apartment hunting, visiting the schools and whatnot) and then what comes up after we move. Hopefully both of us will update it, depending on what's going on.
(I also have an option for people who want to get the info via email if that's easier for ya.)
I will still be regularly updating this blog and "Raining Grace" through the summer, and hopefully beyond since these are more personal ones.
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, and I'm working on simplifying and streamlining my life at the moment. That's translated to my blog here as well.
I'm most likely going to do a series of posts on my other blog, and since some of my readers here might want to see what's up on my other blog, I added a feed under "about me" to you can see what's going on over there. There might be some posts that really could fit in either of my blogs, but the other one needs a little love as you can see haha!
I might eventually just combine my blogs, but for now, this should work.
To finish off this post, I leave you with this:
Yes, I lied. I started another project (the mesh bag pattern on the Sugar & Cream wrapper thingie). But in my defense, it is for my mom for mother's day. And it worked up REALLY fast. And it's crocheted, so it could be said I didn't lie (Ok, that's another lie). I'm nearly done with the mesh part (one or two more rounds), and then I just have the top edge and the handle to finish. I'll put a few things in the bag when I give it to her (like chocolate).
Here's another picture so you can see it in all it's glory:
It feels good to be working on a crochet project again. My poor neglected crochet hooks. *sigh*
This blog is kind of my "fun" blog. I post here most often (partly since I have more readers, haha!), and because it's fun to share the little things of life (namely knitting and crocheting).
But, I also have a blog where I post more about my deeper thoughts, many of them related to God or my relationship with Him.
You can find it here: RainingGrace
I just wanted to share in case anyone wants to know. Also, next Wednesday, Jan 10th, I am going to be participating in a "Synchronized blogging" event coordinated by Phil Wyman (a pastor of a church in Salem, MA). Basically, a bunch of bloggers are going to post their thoughts on a particular issue. This one is on Spiritual Warfare. Both Phil and John Smulo (another pastor/teacher that I've discovered through Blogdom) have posted thoughts on the issue recently, as have I.
I'd love to get feedback from more people on my "Deep" blog :)
