I'm on the loveseat, the room darkening as the sun sets. Maddie is next to me, and Coco is grunting away in her sleep next to Maddie. Tilly's curled up on the floor. It's a sweet moment. We'll go for a walk in a few and then the evening round of puppy craziness will begin.
I did nothing school related today (I lie. I answered a few e-mails.). Hair dresser's, book store, yarn store, bead store, home. Nice little round of errands. I knocked off a little more Christmas shopping and picked up supplies to make a few Puff Daddies and a pair or two of Romi's new earrings. If you plan on making the earrings, and like me, bring the pattern to the bead shop and ask for help selecting supplies, be forewarned that cable thimbles are also called wire guards. I was a bit disappointed in the LBS owner…I showed her a picture, explained what the cable thimbles were meant to do, and she just said she'd never heard of them. As soon as I got home, I logged on to the Rav to find out more, learned their other name, called the shop, and sure enough, she has them. I wish she'd been able to connect the two names to the same items. I will say she was very helpful other than that snafu, but it does mean another trip to the shop.
Time to walk the mutts. I'm grateful we didn't get hit by any of the ice that cracked trees and telephone poles just a few miles away from us.
Stay warm. I hope you have a crafty Friday…I'll be back soon with some fabulous swap pictures.
Sounds like a really lovely day. Enjoy the walk and the puppy craziness!
