“Ordered 2700 skeins of yarn. Still need to put in a few more orders this afternoon, though.”

Now if a regular joe like me said that, I would think there was a major SABLE problem. It sounds like me on a good yarn day. lol When are 2700 skeins not enough, that you need to place a few more orders! LOL

Obviously they don’t have you guys’ excellent postal service.

Sheri, make sure to get the British version of Downton Abbey. PBS here in the states cut out portions of the movie. They aren’t really important but I do think the scenes show true character. For instance, in one Countess of Grantham (Elizabeth McGovern) gives Miss O’Brien a hell of a talk down when she overhears a conversation.

Hugs!

Yesterday I left my knitting (three small projects) in the Physical Therapist’s office and I am working late tonight and can’t get it until Monday…never fear! I started a new project instead of watching basketball. Sunny Northern California is very very rainy, I hope it clears or at least stays dry for the St Patrick’s Day parade…I ignor the call of the wild (laundry) along with the whining of the floors to at least be swept, but that recipe is calling my name…chicken in a crockpot – it doesn’t get much better for weekend cooking annnd I think I will place my 6th order from TLE, too. Humm where does that go on my to-do list…

Well, Wednesday took the boys to try the green eggs and ham breakfast at IHOP, soaked tree seeds, went to see the Lorax, went to Home Depot to get pots for their tree seeds and supplies for some landscaping. 6 bags of mulch didn’t go very far. Still feeling it today, my body is very sore still – but it was worth it – my sons are on spring break and are little, so I’m enjoying spending time with them.

Love reading your blog and buying from your store.

Today, I worked …

While at work, I traded a few skeins on Ravelry, put a test-knit scarf project in time-out, & started “hogwart’s express” shawl. At home, I made my swap packages, finished dinner & sat and knitting for hours. Tomorrow is my day off & I just might get out of my PJ’s ….

Worked, checked the office for the mouse who ran across my desk (I am SO not a rodent person so this is making me absolutely crazy) worked some more, went to a dental appointment and then worked some more.
I did find out last night that I will be in Denver in May and my sister has left space in our schedule (graduation and confirmation have to take precedence, even I knew that) for a trip to The Loopy Ewe…YAY!

Not quite as productive as I had hoped to be. The spring like weather we’re having in Michigan is giving me a bad case of SPRING FEVER and I just had to go outside and enjoy the day. Also hit a snag on my 1st Quarter challenge that set me back a bit.
I see a couple of new projects in my future ………. A silk blend and a cashmere bled…… I think I am in love already. Can’t wait to see it!

Don’t worry until your queued projects get in the triple digits. I’m waiting for a call from the producers of “Hoarders.” Not only am I SABLE but PABLE (new work).

There was a snow-storm forecast for today, so I had planned to make a big batch of black bean burgers — a day-long job. The snow never did arrive here, although the other side of the island got wholloped with 8 inches — a lot for mid-March. I made the black bean burgers anyway, with a few breaks to drool over the new yarns you mentioned on Monday, and now I get to knit my Tadpoles (socks) this evening. Yippee! I’ve earned a few hours in my blue chair (not nearly as pretty as your red one). Can you tell I’m green with envy? Do I have colour on the brain or something?
