HELP the HORSES

I found my blog lol

Its been crazy and not so crazy but mostly lazy when it comes to my blog. Sorry about that! Lately i've been trying to turn the page in my life and get my dreams going again. When I had to give my horse away in Feb 2007 I was heart broken and I feel like I've been in a slump ever since. Well it's damn well time to STOP!

I've gotten my horse books out of my cedar chest down stairs; I've found a GREAT horse rescue to volunteer at; still trying to find the right place to take lesons but need boots and a helmet first. hopefully those are comming soon lol and speeking of the horse rescue...it's only 12 minutes away from here. It's called Beech Brook Farm & Equine Rescue!! i've been a volunteer there for about 3 weeks now and LOVE doing it. It's gotten my spirits up and gotten me off my lazy ass! So anywho...now i'm gonna go into the pitch LMAO

Please visit their website:

http://beechbrookfarm.webs.com/

There is a paypal button to donate. ANYTHING HELPS!! Or go to the Fundraiser page where you can buy things and part of the profits go to Beech Brook. My etsy page is on there as well. 100% of te profits in my Help the Horses section go to the rescue! Will have more horse related items soon...promise!

So thats helping getting my ass back on track to my dream...it's a start.

LOVE YOU ALL!

Let's Ply!!

Did my first ply job on my spindle. WOW. :) Turned out great.


I also started my Thorpe hat with it.




















Finished up the rest of the roving too and letting the singles "set" before I ply them.

Also even started pre-drafting the Pretty Persuasion that I had in my shop. It's turning out great. Right now its a fingering weight but I'm going to ply so maybe it will be sport weight when I'm done.
***************************************************************

And for the first time ever I have to report somebody on etsy. They bought a set of my hair clips then never paid and never contacted me again. I hate that. :(

Quick Post

Wee G-mom took Shade for weekend. :) Casey and I had a great time. Was going to go out but with funds low we just got a movie on demand and snuggled on the couch. :) We were supposed to go to g-mom's for dinner tonight BUT Casey is picking Shade up early as g-mom got sick off of something. :( Now I'm cleaning house while Casey is gone. Blasting Music and enjoying it actually. LMAO

Crafty front, I'm 1/2 done my mitts for Cesca since I put the first set in shop HERE Working on my SAL, got about 12 rows done knitted up for Thorpe but still need to spin the rest of the fiber so I can finish Thorpe when i run out of yarn. lol Need to CO the Tree again. Keep freaking myself out about the whole first sweater thing. I WILL DO IT. lol Also still destashing on my blog/etsy/ravelry. Please check it all out. I know you can go to store to get it but you'd be helping a friend out. :)

As Cris says...Have an OSM day! :)

A New Day

Shade is still asleep. :)

I am thinking I am going to finish up the last 2 rounds of my second V-Day doily I have done and put it on the blocking board.

Cesca's B-day is coming up and want to do some awesome mitts for her I have picked out but can't seem to get past the CO with dpn's. UGH!

I also figured out I am going to make a headband out of the hand spun I did. :) I think it will look nice and bright and cheery.

Going to CO the Tree again and see what happens.

Maybe clean the house....or not!! :)

Oh also need to go to the PO to send the PIF booties that sold in my shop. I love click and ship but why don't they do it for smaller items? :( I'm about to just throw 4 stamps on it and see if that works. LMAO

OH this weekend is the Nutmeg Spinner's Guild meeting. I can't wait. I am hoping that maybe I can try out a few wheels. See what I would want to buy. I am still hooked on the Kromski Sonata and believe me...I have gone and researched a lot of wheels. The main thing I want is it to be portable. I am always going places, up to Becky's in MA, or down to my moms or dads house in NJ.

So let's start the day shall we? :)

LOOK ..

what I made....soon to be for sale in my etsy shop with all differant kinds of colors!

My Etsy Shop

No this is NOT another post of "HEY! Buy my very creative and wonderful stuff!" :) I went to check on my etsy shop, no idea 0why since nobody has bought anything in quite some time...but anywho, I was surprised when I saw I had a convo...SWEET! Well it was the woman who bought my mystery box of yarn. SO KEWL!

First she put some awesome stuff on my feedback. Let me tell you I was thrilled. This was back in August she bought it. She said, "Absolutely, 100% Positive Feedback Here! Did I mention Positive Feedback!? This box was literally stuffed to the breaking-point with awesome yarns! Well done! Thank you so much!"

So it's always great to make someone smile no matter how you do it. WINK! :)

Then she just wrote me and said, "Hi there! I purchased your mystery box of yarn a few months back and wanted to show you one of the items I have created using the chenille yarn you sent me! :) I have a scarf planned too in the very near future using the same colors! Just wanted to share... and thanks again for the wonderful assortment of yarn!"

And here is what she made.

Awesome huh? :)

Anyway jsut wanted to share in my glory! Got to go stop Shade form doing something 3 year oldish. lmao

TTYL,

Moe
