Roses from My Birthday

Yesterday was my Birthday, and I have to say, it was flat out the best one I’ve had in a long while. Not that anything super extra special happened, it just felt like a Happy Day. I think that I am in a good place right now, and it was reflected on my Birthday. That, and I’m still all happy from last weekend, and I am *so* looking forward to this weekend in Rhinebeck. We’ll be hitting the road at some horrible early hour, it’s not a bad drive, but 9 hours long. So the earlier the better.

I’m not planning on buying much at all. I think my stash has reached critical mass, and I am overwhelmed by it. Also, I did buy a sweaters worth of Reynolds Whiskey yarn at Webs last weekend, so I am good. I did instruct Brandt to look for yarn for something for himself though. For socks, or a sweater, something not all too easily found locally. Mostly I’m excited to see people. I’m undecided on the Rav party, but maybe we’ll stop by. I also want chicken pot pie and marinated artichokes. So. Good.

**Shop Stuff- So obviously there was no update this week, but there will be next week, and it will be more Halloween yarn, and Wee Halloween kits. After this week, you can expect shop updates will be regular for a good long while. AND as a little Birthday fun, and for those who maybe can’t join us in Rhinebeck, all spinning fiber in my shop will be 28% off this weekend only. Sale extends til Midnight Monday.
