I bought two pairs of shoes from Shoebuy last week. The first pair showed up today. Shipping was pretty fast, and shipping both here and should I need to return them, back is free for ground service via UPS. They provided a tracking number for each shipment within just a few hours of ordering, and they ship very quickly even using standard ground.

I'm so impressed and grateful that technology has advanced enough that people all over the world watched today's inauguration together.

My dear sweet husband did it again.  He somehow manages to find me gifts that I would never buy for myself, but somehow are really pleasing to me.

This year he bought me my very own Capitals jersey, with plenty of room for growth. :)

I'm not sure why this is so pleasing to me, but it really really is!

I did get some spinning done this week.  Of course now I'm at the office so I can't take photos to share.  Let's just say that I finished a bobbin of SW BFL (Superwash Blue Faced Leicester for those non-sheepie people), which amounted to about four ounces.  I have another four ounces to go, and of course the first four ounces still need to be plied ( Read more... )

I want to post a big shout out to my sis, who amazingly talked me through buying a dress today.  I was in Macy's and she was on the phone.  It's one of the few times where I can say that technology can be a wonderful thing :)

My Mojo made a surprise appearance at yesterday's spin in at my house.  I've spun up almost a full bobbin of Lame Duck Mallard, superwash BFL in a thick woolen single.  I was so impressed with Elizabeth's yarn that I had to spin up mine ( Read more... )

Since SOAR my Mojo has been gone.  Not just knitting, but spinning too.  I've not knit or spun much since coming back.

Yesterday I went down to one of my LYS, and picked up four little balls of tapestry wool.  It's actual wool, knitting worsted weight.  I'm thinking about trying a log cabin style blanket.

Let's see how this goes...
