New Blog template

I have not blogged for a very long time.  Life just keeps getting busier.  I have lots of yarn for sale.  If you are interested in Galway, Plymouth Encore, Mini Mochi, Classic Elite cottons, and Cascade.  Just give me a call and I'll send photos.  I hope to post them on my website this week also.

I continue to be active with two knitting groups - one in Minneapolis at curran's restaurant where the pie is fabulous and $1.oo after 2 pm.  We have 8-10 Knitters every other Saturday.  The next one is June 10th.
I also have a group in Chaska at the Library on Monday nights 6-8 PM.  I also have lots of spinning fiber and still teach kntting and spinning one on one.

I am working three jobs right now - for an appraiser in Chanhassen 4 days a week, One day a weekend at chico's and right now at the GGBG Hut in Chaska in the evenings until next week.  It's fun but exhausting.
Today is June 3rd and it's almost 90 degrees and the humidity will also be that high.  Hoping my son gets my air conditioner in the windows tonight.

I am fostering a very nice dog called Nikita.  She is 6 -8 mos. old, looks like a hound, lab, Irish setter.  Don't know how long I will have her but she's doing very well.  I found her through Ruffstart, an organization of volunteers that find foster homes for dogs and try to adopt them out, so you might get a new dog every few months. 

I think I mentioned I got an angora bunny in March.  Buzz is delightful, very tame and now comes when I call him.  he loves mango chunks.  I found him a great hutch with an outdoor fenced area attached so he can hop in the grass.  Took him to Josh's school a couple weeks ago to demo spinning and Buzz.  They liked the spinning wheel the best.

I also have a parakeet, names Angel, and she is almost all white, with a little yellow and blue.  She thinks she is a dog, and walks on the floor everywhere.  She will find me whereever I am in the house and stand inbetween my feet until I pick her up.  She cuddles under my chin and is very easy with the grandchildren.

Now if I can just get some exercise this year, I would feel great.  I am feeling not so great about my weight.
I tried yogo and threw out my neck, so now I might try just walking. 

Happy knitting and spinning
