The Monday Blahs
Snow. Then snow. Then more snow. Blah. It was nice today when the sun was shining. I even got ambitious and shoveled most of my driveway (no small feat, either). Then, an hour later, the next door neighbor's adult son showed up with his big ole truck and plowed the driveway completely. I love Merrill. The people here are awesome like that.
Dale and I were both off today.... Mondays the shop is closed. Sometimes we have 4H meetings with our kids. Not today. Yay. Love the little buggers but sometimes it's nice that they aren't here. Thank you all of the Sweethearts in Halters llama club supporters. You know who you are..... the people that put money in our 4H bucket every Knit Nite. The ones that we force pies onto to help raise money for camp. Thank you. We have enough funds now for our April Llama Show at Michigan State University AND to go to Llama Camp (www.youthjamboree.net). Last year was a blast. And we learned a lot of stuff. This year promises to be just a great.
Knit Nite: Every Tuesday starting at 5 pm. Last week not so many. Illnesses and weariness.... got the best of us. I think they didn't come because they were afraid we'd have leftover snacks from Xmas time. Fooled them! Dale's philosophy is this.... if either Dale or I bring in something to eat, then we will have lots and lots of stuff. But if neither of us does, then we have nothing. One week we all shared 3 Ritz crackers. It was pathetic. But one week 3 people brought cheesecake! Yeehah! Hit the lotto. We'll see about tomorrow.
I'm gonna try to keep updating this stupid blog every few days now. Let me know if you're reading it, ok?

Hi Dale & Pam-
Yes, I am reading your blog(s). And I enjoy your website, esp. since you updated it! Oh, Pam, I spun all that "student roving" I got from TW&S. You were correct, it was easier to spin than the BFL. Now I need more so I can finish my 2nd spool and start plying. Hope to see you soon, if the darn cold and snow knock it off. I love wandering around your shop and looking at the great stuff you have.
