The End Of NaNoBloPoMo

This is the last day of NaNoBloPoMo, and I made it. There were many nights when I really wanted to pack it in and give up.

So to sum up the month:

1. I proved to myself that if I set my mind to do something I could finish it, it's just determination, even when I really don't feel like it.

2. I could have put forth better self-discipline and less procrastination. I didn't write half the posts I wanted to because of this.

So, I'm thinking about trying it again, whether or not it will December, I'm not sure. Christmas is coming and I haven't enjoyed the holiday for several years now, for a variety of reasons. Usually, I go into hibernation about now.

I finished spinning and plying the second batch of CMF Avalon. Here it is resting before it's pre-soak. It's 8 ozs and 600 yards 3-ply. I'm really wondering what's up with my spinning lately as I usually get 110 to 120 yards to the ounce on 3ply.



I've been in the mood to play around with Sims 2 lately, so that's where I'm off to the rest of the evening. I haven't messed around with it for a few months.

Long Day

It's been a long emotional day here at bunneh kitteh land. Here is a picture of how we're currently feeling.

Fiber Friday

After yesterdays mass cleaning and festivities, I'm barely able to move today. Between the severe sciatica, muscle fatigue and arachnoiditis (nerve pain caused by the dye in a mylogram) that has been acting up the past couple weeks, I've spent most of the day napping.

I lay down for a bit after dinner, not planning to fall asleep, but I did. Usually, in the winter, when I lay down after dark I turn the bedroom light on, so if I fall asleep when I wake up, I'll know it's the same day. Tonight I forgot to do that. So, after I had slept for about a half an hour I woke up and thought it was 8:00 am Saturday. I argued with Duane for several minutes before he convinced me it was still Friday.

For this weeks Fiber Friday, there really isn't anything new to show. I've been working on spinning a custom order and in between spinning the other 8 oz of Avalon to finish my sweater.

So, I'm announcing a sale at my Kreative Kitties store this weekend. I was going to make it until Sunday night but since Monday is Cyber Monday I decided to extend it an extra day. It's 10% off everything. Free shipping for US residents for $75.00 purchases after any discounts.

International customers receive $5.00 off shipping for $75.00 after any discounts. $7.50 off shipping for $100.00 after any discounts, it goes up $2.50 for every $25.00 from there.

I'll be adding more stuff over the weekend. Crossing fingers for some sunshine for picture taking, as the sun has been in hiding the past couple days here.

This pretty alpaca still has not yet sold, so it will be there until Sunday, unless someone snaps it up.

Happy Thanksgiving

It's been a very long day here and my back is insisting that it is indeed broken.
So while I recuperate, I'm offering you some pie to tied you over.
