I finally got some stuff in the mail that I had been waiting for. One of the things came in these boxes: For those of you with sharp eyes, you might notice that the tape on the boxes matches that of a box I recieved prior to settting off for the States. Here’s another picture …
Packing continues here in lovely Apopka. The yarn room continues to be filled with more boxes and containers than were even in there previously. It is interesting to see the house seem to gradually empty into a couple of rooms which are completely impassible. It will be an experience for me once everything is once …
I ordered a pizza on-line for dinner tonight. While this may seem like no big deal to a lot of you out there it is a HUGE deal to me for 2 reasons. Reason #1 Up until a couple of years ago you couldn’t order pizza in any form to be delivered to this neighborhood …
This is what I did last night after the Happy Hookers meet-up. I started spinning up some of the rovings that I bought at Rhinebeck. The name of this colorway is “Sage” and I only have half a pound of it. It is (I believe) 100% merino wool. I am not sure that I like spinning …

I’m sitting here in the Newark airport writing this. It is 9 o’clock Monday morning, always a sober slap of reality, more so today more than usual. I am not used to rush hour traffic going into New York City. Hell, I’m not used to rush hour traffic at all! So getting here was more …
Oh My God. I so don’t know how to describe today, it was seriously just too overwhelming. I guess that the best way to do it is to start at the beginning, right? I left the muggle in-law’s house today at around 5:30-ish. The sun was still a ways from being up, let alone …
Ok, so it is official, United totally sucks sweaty athlete balls.

Oh, …
