19 October 2019 by kristarella 1 Comment

I have spoken about depression and anxiety before. I have made some significant strides lately in thinking more positively, and dealing with many of the symptoms I experience, but occasionally things are overwhelming and I just have no idea what to do about it. I know others can feel the same way; it’s why “mindfulness” […]

Craft Icons: Free Download

6 March 2015 by kristarella 1 Comment

I recently wanted to make a Keep Calm and Crochet On poster. I know the whole Keep Calm thing is a bit over, but that’s just how I was feeling that day. I was rather disappointed at the complete lack of craft-related icons in both the Keep Calm iPhone apps and what I could find […]

29 July 2013 by kristarella Leave a Comment

I’ve been working with Gravity Forms A LOT lately and I’ve found that the default form CSS applies outline: 0; and outline-style: none; on form elements in focus. This is bad.

Another fun day at the zoo! I was excited to see h Another fun day at the zoo! I was excited to see how great the Vivid displays look during day since I didn't try to see them at night.

This cheeky monkey is ten months old today!He h This cheeky monkey is ten months old today!He has 3 teeth out, and that tongue is often out feeling what is going on with those too! He is super close to crawling. He can shuffle himself around and did a couple of alternate knee motions yesterday before slipping onto his tummy again. He doesn't like lying down and sits up at every opportunity. He is rubbish at sleeping (worse than ever), but usually makes up for it with how happy he is during the day.#marksymonds
