Crazy things I've been up to...........

Well, you know it's spring when computer time becomes more and more scarce. Of course it didn't help that I wasn't in a good habit of posting to begin with. Oh, well! I try to think of it as being out there and living.......doesn't that sound glamorous? Much better than being that my work schedule has been bouncing from days to nights to weekendsas well as which facility and I'm lucky to know which end is up and where I'm supposed to be and when.............

In the mean time, I helped a friend shear her sheep by hand a couple weeks ago. Good news is that I get to keep and learn to process the wool and maybe try dying if I get to feeling really sassy. Bad news is I get to clean and process the wool in all the spare time I probably won't have until maybe July/August when it'll be too hot for me to want to do it.

I've been trying to spin and knit away for my skein/garment entries for the Angora Nationals next month. Too bad I'm such a picky fool, I don't totally love anything I've come up with. I mean, I love it for me, but I just worry about actually showing people my work. Guess I need to get over it! I have also joined a knitting class that can be very flexible to fit me. My goals here are to learn some new stitches, learn to ready patterns and get some great ideas. A friend I grew up with convinced me to join-it's all her fault I'm into all this anyway. And I never stop reminding her .......lol So far it's a lot of fun, too bad its like an hour away and there's nothing like it around here. Note to self-one more thing to do-start something like this around here once you have a clue..........

Last Saturday brought new additions to the house in time for Easter. A long anticipated litter arrived-I have 2 surviving out of 3. Now at 1 week old I'm trying to decide if they're going to bless me by staying blue or if they're going to tort on me. Mom is a blue tort and Dad is REW with torts, REWs and blacks in the background mostly. We'll see.............


And last but certainly, but not least is little now 9 wk old
Katie May Cockapoo. Since the passing of our Ole Klem, Nelson just sold his awesome personality and made us love him even more. We've almost always had 2 dogs at a time, so the house still seemed empty and we were ready to add on again. Of course leave it to the girls to immediatly strip their old teddy bears of their dresses and snarf up the baby girl! And to know it's just the start...........

I will be doing spring cleaning in the rabbitry and will update pictures on my web site soon. My ping pong schedule should be over for a while and I can hopefully start getting stuff done around here soon as I go back to feeling like a normal person!
I have some bucks available, so if you're interested in them before I get to my updates-E-MAIL ME!
