This blog, that is, not me… Still in Dubai for another little while yet.
It wasn’t making sense to have a craft blog and a living abroad blog, which were both being neglected and filled up with spammy nonsense.
Longtime crafty blogger Carrie of Carrieoke and Identity Web and Photo has helped me out with some site merging and overhaul, and a lovely redesign. So now the Dubai blog has become a part of the original Step Into My Thimble. (If the Dubai expat adventures are all you are interested in, subscribe to this page.)
The RSS feeds will be redirected, but just in case you want to resubscribe, go to stepintomythimble.com and you will find feeds there.
And craft content, coming soon, I promise!

I’m doing it. I might even come back to this post and make a list of who I have written to and when I sent it. Do I have your address? If not you can send it to me through my contact form.

This year I was remarkably faithful in my use of Daytum to track a few routine things. At my current job, having a coffee break is a standard daily occurrence, and I watched myself shift a bit from tea to coffee over the year, though that’s not obvious from the main graph. You can see consumption drop way off in the summer, when I went back to the US for a vacation and fell out of the routine for a while. The category “Random Black Tea” (which I usually only drink when it’s all there is because Lipton Yellow Label = scourge) took a huge jump at the end of the year too, thanks to a trip to Turkey where I drank about five cups a day.

More statistics & interpretation beyond…
