Built tough.

I need to try to post more often. Time keeps on slippin', slippin' into the future.

Saturday was Friendship Spinners and we met in Frankfort. Haven't been since December and so enjoyed seeing everyone. The Woolery visit was good. Their storefront is in downtown, and I am so delighted that they have such great stuff. Maybe my stuff, but we'll have to wait and see about that.


Norma Jean made this, and though you cannot see it in my photo, the detail in Abe's face is astounding. I reckon he is about 12'' tall and she plans to needle felt a Mary Todd, too. She says she is getting a website soon and I hope so.



Sweetie spent that day with friends in Louisville, and here he is the morning after. Ain't he the cutest thang?




The big babies are all looking fine. I put them outside in a pen now that the weather is nice.

One bunny after another in Annabelle's litter scattered from the nest, and that is a death sentence in Lapin Land. The three survivors are being kept in a tall-sided container and get taken to mom to feed once or twice a day. Once they are able to better motivate on their own, I'll put them back with mom.

Mostly I have just been fiddle fartin' around, not seeming to get much accomplished. Divided some irises and day lilies yesterday, washed some laundry today, spent way too much time on the interwebs every day. Need to get the dyepots cooking, but the weather is so nice, finally, that I can't help but wander around outside to look at the daffydils and listen to the birds.

It sounds like a great weekend. Those interwebs are a giant time suck, aren't they? Daffydils are a much better time suck, though -- that reminds me that it's maybe time to go check on the wisteria...

Hey Miss Nancy! it was good to run into you at the Woolery. Alan and i killed a good two hours looking through their stuff. I had forgotten about the Spinners meeting or I would have headed over there. Cheese for brains these days...actually a long timenow. NE who, It sounds like you have been spending your time in a peaceful place so who's to say? I got the dyeing bug tho, OMG am I loving it. I need to get more dyes from you. I'll email you with some colors and meantime i think I will check to see what's shooting up outside. Cha!
