If there's anyone out there still checking in on this blog, I wanted to take this opportunity to formally sign off. After a lot of thought and a fair amount of agonizing, I've made the bittersweet decision to move on from More Ways to Waste Time.
More importantly, I wanted to give my sincere thanks to you for reading, whether it's been for the entire two-plus years and 1,500 or so posts that have elapsed since I began this blog, or whether you found yourself here just recently. I've truly enjoyed highlighting the work of so many inspired artists, craftspeople, and independent retailers, delighted in every last one of your comments and emails, and cherished the many online friendships that have resulted.
All my best to all of you.

Have a lovely long holiday weekend, everyone! I'll see you back here on Monday.
P.S. If you're local, don't miss Evan B. Harris and Alisha Wessler's new show, Back Channels, opening tonight at Johansson Projects as part of the monthly Oakland Art Murmur.

Sorry I've been M.I.A. the last couple of days -- we've had family in town, kids' graduations, and a whirlwind of associated activities. I'd hoped to squeeze in a few posts, but couldn't seem to catch my breath. I'll be back on a regular posting schedule come Monday, though.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Have a lovely long holiday weekend, and I'll see you back here on Tuesday!
P.S. If you're local, don't miss the farewell party at Old Oakland's Mignonne (1000 Jefferson St. at 9th) from noon to 7 p.m. Saturday, when nearly everything in the shop will be marked down 30 percent. And don't despair -- the French-flavored boutique is moving to great new digs in Berkeley in June.

I'm off to bury my grandmother this weekend; she would have been 98 next week. No sadness, just peace and gratitude.

Photo by e*airfullyAre you all doing anything interesting this weekend? Ours involves Little League baseball, baseball, and still more baseball -- three games in the next three days, to be exact. Sunburns (and much knitting on the sidelines) will undoubtedly ensue.
Wherever your weekend takes you, I hope it's a good one!

What are you doing this weekend? We're hosting our monthly Movie Night/babysitting swap with friends (hey, if nothing else, it's an excuse to order pizza and rent Beverly Hills Chihuahua without losing too much face ... ), planting a new ginkgo to replace a dying tree we had to cut down the other day, and then I'm chaining myself to the sewing machine to turn part of my growing fabric collection into fresh spring pillow covers. (I know -- glamorous, right?)
Anyway, whether you have big social plans or are simply planning to nest, I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
