Patience

Does the Universe think I need more patience?? Or am I having just another bad day?

Apparently, my 2009 Chev Silverado 1/2 ton did NOT get the memo that vehicles should never automatically lock when the keys are in the ignition and running...... hum-de-dum ..... so now I wait for AMA to arrive to unlock the beast.

I'll post later about the rescue mission my husband and I undertook this past week, for now, I wait!!!


Just for fun, here is a picture of our cat, Haley, hiding her head - for shame?? - just because?? We will never know, but it was the funniest thing we have seen in ages from this 14 year old!!

Spinning and project planning

REMINDER!! I am a very novice spinner, at least on a wheel.



This is what is on the wheel. It is store bought fibre, but it is so yummy and I just LOVE the colour(s)! I am hoping to get this done soon so I can get some home grown Shetland on the wheel. I have a lovely Shaela fleece just begging to get out of the bag.

























This is what I want to make out of the homespun once it is finished! I would like to get it finished before this years Fibre Week at Olds College. I am hoping I can schedule a trip to the Black Sheep Gathering in June, but it all depends on work ... keep your fingers crossed!!!!
