Crazy Busy

With the Blueberry retreat coming up it is crazy busy these days. I have spun three of my flax/linen sample though one will need fiddling with to finish it. It came off slightly unbalanced... rather a bit like me. (Teapot always says I'm spinny and unbalanced!) The Blueberry retreat is only two days away and I am greatly looking forward to that. For the first time in a long time the weather doesn't seem to be co-operating. every year there seems to be a nice little lull in winter so that we can go to the Blueberry without concern for driving conditions... but this year there is snow in the forecast for the next week. Blah!  This does not concern me dreadfully since I will be traveling with someone else, except for when I get back I have to take my mother to DC for an appointment with the denturist.  I hate winter driving... but the rest of the year I love to drive... I just wish I had a car of my own.... anyone out there with an extra car that they don't need... : )

Oh! Happy Valentine's day (she says as an after thought).... yeah you can see that it is of such great importance around here.... actually I did get a nice kiss on the cheek this morning. Flowers are pointless since I won't be around to enjoy them anyway and can't think of how chocolates say "I love you" when they just make you fat and your self image plummets. We might watch a romantic movie if a movie shows up in the mail from VM but then that's just a movie..... so I'll just wait till we're in bed at night and then I'll roll over and slide my..... (get your minds out of the gutter....) hand into his and say good night and I love you just as he is going to sleep, and just as we have done for years... I don't think you can get much more romantic after 20 years of marriage. Holding hands and being told you are loved is pretty good don't you think?   Mind you if he wanted to give me jewelry I wouldn't turn it down... (hee hee)! I might even think about buying him a new fishing rod... like spinning wheels... evidently you can never have enough of them... go figure.

Hope you have lots of hearts and romance in your life today... and if not and you find yourself all alone, just remember... it just another big fundraiser for Halmark!
