Ok so our keyboard is still not working. It's better than it was but it is still acting erratically so I am back to typing on this old piece of sh--! Sucks to be me... oh well might as well get over it.
Spinning: 2.5 tpi done on first try though I still have to wash it and that could change me into a blithering idiot in very short order. I'm tired tonight. Felt like throwing the stupid sample at a wall when I saw that there was a cork screw in it but it is near one end and after I wash it if it is ok then the cork screw will get cut off and I'll still have 11 metres... that'll work. But then I'm not thinking straightly tonight. Why am I so tired, you ask? I was talking to birds all afternoon. (yes I do talk to birds... and generally it is a great conversation... even better than some I have with people!) I was outdoors in the bright spring sunshine enjoying a fire on the deck in the fireplace. It was just too awesome to talk about. I finished the embroidery this morning and it looks great... I am now weaving the back of the purse and should finish that tomorrow. Then I will weave on the inkle loom a little handle... or maybe on the Marudai I will braid a handle but I won't make that decision until I'm finished everything else since I need to know how much fibre I have left.
The Daughters went for a long walk today in the spring sunshine and took the dogs. They left at 12:30 and by 4:00 I was starting to worry about where the heck they were especially since they didn't have a phone with them. I don't normally worry about them much cause they're pretty good at letting us know where they are or not staying away very long... but there have been cougar sightings lately in the area and that always is a worry. Teapot says I worry too much and while he's probably right it is hard to stop being a mother hen. Teapot eventually went looking for them and with the snow and three dogs with them they were pretty easy to track. By the time they got home they were all just about ready to fall over. I didn't say much .... but they knew I wasn't pleased... I'm glad they're home safe but they had better not go off without their phone again.... or it will be to the moon.... !!!
I'm so tired tonight that I decided to sit and read on the computer for a few minutes before going to bed early instead of working on the tpi sample tonight any more.... tomorrow is another day. Still when I catch up on all my favorite blogs/websites I realize that I have been letting the world pass me by I even forgot St. Patrick's day this year. My leprechaun stayed out of sight this year. Tomorrow our church is having a pancake breakfast and pancake day was three weeks ago... no wonder I'm mixed up. When I finally look up from all this homework that I'm doing, I won't know where I am or what time of year it is.
Spring is definitely here and tomorrow is swimming day. I'll be heading off with my seniors group for our last swim for the year. April1st the pool is closing for three months for updates on the chlorine equipment.... : ( sad face... but then in 7 more weeks our pool here in HH will be opening for the summer. We have the greatest pool.... and all the better for being an outdoor pool... really it's awesome. I look forward to it.... anyway I just yawned enough to split my head apart... I guess I better toddle off to bed... see ya tomorrow.

One thing about the girls having the dogs with them, Frankie - any self respecting cougar will figure that one of the dogs is by far the best option for dinner. For one thing, they make better "take-out" (easier to carry)! Don't blame you for getting concerned though. That was a LOOOONG walk they took.
