i am tired and have a headache, but can’t sleep. and i don’t want to start a knitting project. and i am tired. and i have a lesson to teach to-morrow. why. can’t. i. sleep? huh?
i straightened up the studio and i carded some fiber for to-morrow and left the studio sniffling with fiber stuck on my eyeballs. and it still is. ah well. i never wear wool, and i think i am mildly allergic to it.
i put some white oat bread to bake in the bread machine so it is ready for jake when he wakes up, and i may eat a little when i wake up, too.
i took a shower and talked to amy at thet same time, by putting a shower cap on my phone. and on me, too. and she could hear me ok. what do you think of that? and yet, no one can hear me when i use the speakerphone feature and hold the phone 2 inches from my face.
while i am glad to be busy at the shop, i am stressed by the lack of yarn in the store, plus the big order for kpixie, which i need to get cracking on. i am thinking that i should pick some of my yarn up from pgh knit and bead, although they sold a lot, so maybe it is better to leave it there.
any of you who read my blog and have bought stuff from me, please send me photos of finished objects…ok? please! especially the sock yarns. i plan to do dyeing on thursday and i would like some suggestions for socks…colors? pick two colors and send in the suggestion. i have been doing them half and half so it has a stripishness to it, although i blend it so it is more interesting. i think i may do one that is totally crazy though. jackson pollock collection, if you know what i mean. action jackson. that is me, sitting on the kitchen floor. dyeing is so fun! suggestions! ok?
i have to say that they lack of need to retaliate in any way against the mean email lady…jake used to be the laid back one, and i was the reactionary…he got so mad about that email, and i was just shocked, really. baffled. but i imagine that she has some sort of bee in her granny bloomers that she took out on me, and whatever. in fact, in my email back to her, i apologized and told her to have a super day. super. i should send her a gift. although all of you know how bad i am at sending trades and presents. for example, i need to dye spun yarn for a couple of trades and ran out of said yarn, so i think about it everyday, waiting to make my whole order, rather than just ordering two skeins. and my memory is terrible, so if i owe you something, please feel free to harass me, i probably have forgotten, despite the fact that i am into it. further, i have been having problems getting the pink and brown that i really want, and it is very frustrating. although, i think i have an idea. so. we will see in the next couple of days. and i will get the yarn and send it off. i don’t even have enough fiber to spin and then dye until my order(s) come. although, i tracked the littlebarn package and it has actually been shipped and should be delivered to-morrow. maybe i should just buzz over to somewhere and order some undyed worsted now. and then, go to sleepies.
i will take photos of my lesson with jessica, if she allows me, and post what she makes….yay!
oh, also, i ordered the lendrum tonite…and they said they had them in for the first time in 3 years, so hopefully all will work out. when i get it, i will be sure to post photos. jake let me put it on his credit card and i need to repay part of it with the income from my wheel’s sale. but yay! i need to get another skeinwinder to skein socks from a skein. fun fun.if anyone has one that they love, tell me what it is.start working on names…and keep the girl baby names for diana’s mini…remember, unusual, but pretty.
also we will be starting an ask lady diana question segment on the blog…that is diana’s full name. really. anyway, so if you have a question of any kind at all that you want answered, either post it, or email it to me and it will be answered on the blog. and a prize may be involved. she is very knowledgable about design and fashion and art and it preggers, so babies…loads of things…
