Here it is March 18th; my twin daughters has a birthday yesterday; 30 years old. When did that happen? they were just toddlers a couple of days ago..

Got some new pencil roving packages done today, and had a blast dyeing up some more Wens locks over the past couple of days. The September Morning turned out very intense, I like it.

Most of the snow is gone at last, and I am busily cleaning up the lawn bombs the dogs have left for me over the winter. Tooooooo many dogs!

A brand new year

So much has happened, I don't think I can fit it all in! 2 new grandsons, Cain and Simon, such a crazy busy year, and we finally have our new spinning equipment in. Marc has been working hard on it (I am afraid to touch it, machines don't like me) and is trying all kinds of new stuff. He is currently making some Decadent yarn, which is 50% Superwash, 30% Silk and 20% Seacell; it's amazing. I think I will try it first undyed, and then when the weather is better start doing some crazy colours. We also have some varicoloured mohair/superwash 50/50 on the machine that is sooo soft. C'mon sun, I want to go outside and play in my dyepots!
