I've been home from work for one week. Can it be true? It seems a lot longer. I have been very busy and running around getting things done. I feel like I have "jet lag". I have been sleeping later and just pooping out for no reason. I have continued to work on wrapping up loose ends such as unfinished knitting and spinning projects so I can start on something new. WHy? Because I start feeling rattled and have nothing to show for my time? partly, but the real reason is so I can start a bunch of new projects without guilt! I have two new pair of socks I want to knit, and two new sweaters in the wings. There are no knitting or spinning police (nice to know) but I have to disipline my self, or I am all over the place. Enough!
We have been having such beautiful sunsets I have to share. This is my favorite. See the awsome palm tree. It reminds me of a view I had as a kid. I am miles away from that place, but there is the palm tree in the sunset. That's incredible. We had a bunch of humid filled days and I think that is what caused the sunsets. It is usually pretty dry here.
Yesterday Rhonda came early in the morning andwe finally got to shear Molly. Oh my I can't believe how beautiful her wool is. It is pretty dirty because she wasn't jacketed, but still pretty nice. She is the new one that is 3/4 Morino. I don't think I will be getting any more of those kind, or atleast not if I have to shear them myself. They are so thick and full of lanolin that they are hard to shear. Now with 10 to be sheared next spring, we will probably have a shearer come here.
Poor baby, not her finest look. But I have all her awsome wool in a big bag. Yum, ready to be processed.
Until next time, sit and spin on.....................Sheena

I need to find some of the project discipline too.
