Tired

Tired and not feeling very good today. I finished plying the black yarns as well as some other yarns I spindle spun. They are in the bathroom drying. Going to start spinning up fiber to dye. My goal is to have everything spun up and dyed by Maryland Sheep and Wool festival time so I won’t feel guilty buying more :) . Then I will add everything to my Etsy shop and cross my fingers. I’m going to try and build my own light box for better pictures. Most of my yarns end up being finger/lace weight so my goal is to spin a “sock” weight yarn for dyeing.

2010 Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival

I have to remember to put that Friday as a day off on my work schedule. I am excited already.  This weekend I will be going home to N.C. to visit my Grandma in the hospital. She is recovering from a stroke and has paralysis on her right side.

Getting Sick Sucks

Unexpected virus. Flu like symptoms. I’d rather have another baby natural. That’s how miserable I was. At least if you are having a baby you’ll hopefully have something to show for it at the end. My beloved Gran’ Rosie had a stroke and is in the ICU at a local hospital near her home. For those of you who actually come to my site, please send good vibes, prayers etc. her way.

Cringes in Fear

So…today is my last half day using up my vacation time.
 
The contractors came over yesterday to assess the house and the repairs that will be needed.
 
I need to figure out what is wrong with my water reservoir on the truck. Moya also needs a good cleaning inside and out. The kids need to vacuum the attic stairs. I’m two seconds away from ripping out the carpet up there period.
 

Vacation Days

I’ve been burning my remaining vacation by taking half days this month. Next year I will use my vacation time to try and attend more of the babies school activities. Hopefully, they will be healthy next year. I have to bust out some more scarves and hats for xmas presents and work on the sad sad budget. Junior and I will work on his science project tonight. Tomorrow we will make more xmas ornaments for the tree. Saturday and Sunday I will make sugar cookies for Santa and some chocolate chip. Still cleaning the house :P . I need to come up with a schedule and stick to it for cleaning, WOW raiding, knitting guild meetings, yarn for breakfast and yarn for supper meetings, etc.
