Spinning wheels, Jury Duty and life :)


Ok so I did it. I sold my first spinning wheel. It all made sense. I was never going to use it again. I have a new one. But it was a gift from my hubby. But we had no room for it. So I decided to sell it. I now have money for hubbo's Birthday gift. So that is good. And the new wheel was also a gift from hubby...so there is still the sentimental thing....but I was a little sad...sniff...weird, huh? The piture at right is me saying goodbye....

Jury Duty. Tomorrow. 8:30 am. Downtown. UGH. I can still pray that my group is not needed....but don't want to get too hopeful. The thing is- I cannot even take my knitting. Now I am all for homeland security but come on...wooden circular needles as a weapon????? So I have a stack of magazines I have saved. The new Oxygen ( an awesome magazine) and Muscle and Fitness for Her. I will look at it as an adventure-- but I will still admit its an adventure I would rather not take. : 0

I survived

OK so I survived the weekend. It was not an ordinary weekend. No we are always BUSY. Funny thing thats the way I like it beacause if it was not busy I would have been crabby!
We finished cleaning the basement. Hubbo finished putting walls up. The drywall still has to be painted but hey its up! And we got new carpet which was a total God thing. We walked into home depot ( on Sat morning with very little time) and there it was on the carpet asile all wrapped up ready to go just the amount we needed in the colors we loved! and on clearance to boot! Gotta love that!
Sunday was the day family was coming over for my daughters birthday...and it went well... we had pizza- some bought and some homemade...and cookie cake and ice cream. : ) I have a picture of the cookie cake which I will have to post later.
The end of the day went well.... we watched bullriding...and I got to spin on my new spinning wheel....ahhhhh. : )
For my birthday I got a new spinning wheel...a Ladybug. So far I love it. Nice to spin with. Again I will post pictures later....
Well I will close for now...my MIL is still here and hubbo left for work... I am going to take her to Costco today and out to lunch before she leaves.
I will post picture later! : )

OK here it is...my blog. I am not sure I will have much to say but my hubby says i can write about all the cool things I do.

Today I cleaned the basement... well attempted to. Hubbo 's family is coming over in two days to celebrate my daughters birthday and well the basement is a mess. He started putting walls up where he took some down and now I have drywall dust everywhere- and yes although I cleaned I am really not sure it looks much better......

Yesterday I did get the bunnies new cages...stacking cages. They are nice and were totally worth the drive-- I drove about 40 miles out of my way....bad directions...We have two bunnies a mini rex...named Rex and an English Angora- Sweetyheart....a third cage would go nicely on top and I told Hubbo that. : )

And yes I posted some more yarn on Etsy....a nice soft black and white yarn...and also a yummy red, orange combo that is full of sparkley angelina fiber... my username there is jeepgirl.

Well I must hit the gym...took yesterday off and I am itching to run. : )
