Dianne, the Knitting Queen

Lovely Wednesday brings lovely guests. Most of you know her so far, but always interesting to get to know each other better. So please welcome the knitting queen of Knitting Galore Dianne Jones.

Tell us about yourself:

My Name is Dianne I am 57yrs old, I live in Turkey with my husband Mehmet. We will have been married 6yrs this coming November.

Helen … the Self-Interview

Ladies :) … I am still looking for interview partners. So feel free to contact me if you are interested!
What makes you a suitable interview partner? Easy – being female and being interested

Today I am doing a little experiment … interviewing myself. Yes I demand my 15 minutes of fame too. All the where’s and about’s … just read me.

Tell us about yourself:

My name is Helen Bogun, some of my friends call me Helz. I am a Graphic-Designer living in Berlin/Germany. Beside my profession, which I really love, I am single mother of a teenage son, which is quite a challenge. My son and me share our live with two wonderful, lovely but also demanding male cats. So I am AlphaWoman among a little herd of males. Makes me feel like the BeeQueen.

Jamie Saloff: Born in a Snow Storm

I am happy to introduce Jamie Saloff to you. Jamie’s and my path crossed – as many paths do these days – on the internet. She is a very interesting person, so I was thrilled that she accepted to be interviewed by me

Tell us about yourself:

My name is Jamie Saloff and I was born in Pittsburgh, PA, in the midst of a snow storm, worst storm they’d had in years. Maybe that’s why I now live in a small college town, Edinboro, PA, where we get about 250” of snow per year on average. I don’t particularly like the cold, but it can be really beautiful especially when looking out across the lake and park visible from my office window. I live in what was once a summer cottage, built in the late 40s or early 50s with my husband of nearly 33 years, my two sons, Matthew and Mark, and two cats.

Living the Width

I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it.
I want to have lived the width of it as well.

Diane Ackerman

What a fantastic quote!

You think that I’m strong …

Actually today I wanted to post another great interview by one of my sisters. Yet, there are no interviews in line these days, so heads up ladies: be my interview.
Then I thought about a quote by a great woman, like the other Wednesday by Erica Jong.
No I am not in the mood for that.
