I'm dizzy!
Eva* and I took our first spinning class tonight over at Fiber Factory. This is actually my third attempt at learning, but it's my first real class. The drop spindle came back to me pretty quickly, but it's the wheel that I really want to learn. We're also going to learn how to clean and prep fleece for spinning. I hadn't expected this to be included in the class, so I'm pretty psyched about that. I can't picture me going out and buying an entire fleece like some do, but it'll be nice to know the entire process.
By the way, remember how I mentioned in my last post about how all I've finished in 2005 were the two preemie hats? Uh, hello? How could I forget my Nothin' But a T-shirt? And it's not like I finished it in January. Or that I used crappola yarn for it. Nope. I finished it right before Thanksgiving and I used Rowan Calmer. Good grief! Am I that forgetful? Is this a sign that senility is going to be setting in soon? I was so afraid that I had forgotten about other projects that I had completed that I went back through my archives for the year. It's pretty pathetic. Oh, and I haven't completed anything else. But I mean it's pretty pathetic at how the amount of times I post each month keeps dwindling down. I used to be pretty chatty, but now... not so much. At least I realize why certain members of my family (and you all know who you are) are such pains in my ass about updating. I'll try to do better. I promise!
In the meantime, my hubby comes home tomorrow morning! (His mom tried to renew her loan, but I just couldn't do it. I just miss him too much. Sorry mom!) Before he gets here, I have to vacuum, clean the dishes (or at the very least, get them into the dishwasher), trim the cats nails, wrap my hubby's b-day present (or at the very least, hide it), clean the bathrooms, and take the trash out. Whew! I'm exhausted just writing it all out!
