...so, as you know, I have been a bit absent lately... Sigh, I've been lazy, I'll admit it. I could say it was because of work, shows, doing graphics, pending alpaca births, etc, but none of this is actually new! This stuff is always around.
Last night, I congratulated myself to no end because I managed to wash some alpaca fiber and spread it out to dry! A couple of days ago I put forth a fairly nice graphics advertisement that has the customer pleased. Kudos! Last week -- at least I think it was last week since time has no real meaning any more to me without my kids' school calender being a rigid clock-ticking presence -- I went to the Estes Park Wool Market for the the first time ever! What a blast, even if I was mildly concerned that the non-stop rain was going to cause a flash flood. I ended up buying half of a Teeswater/CVM wool blanket (15.5lbs!!) with a friend so we can learn to spin boucle yarn. What was I thinking, considering I'm not really all that great at regular spinning yet and.haven't spun in a while??
...Well, you get the picture. I have a lot of irons in the fire, hats on my head, rocks in my bowl.... anyways. Busy. But having fun, and unwilling to put any of it down. I WILL be the master of all I survey. I'm like Neo in the Matrix where the world just flexes around him. ha, ha. At least that is my vision.
