Wednesday, November 22, 2006
I consider myself quite clever I can multi task as good as any one actually I can do it better I can get so much done in a day I can spin knit sew etc. However did you know I can not brush my teeth and comb my hair at the same time no matter how many times a try switching hands also I cannot brush my teeth and clean the bathroom. When I brush my teeth that's it! That is all I can do... Very frustrating. I just thought you might want to know that.
The Poncho is finished it is outside drying when most of the water is off it I will bring it in and lay it out to get it's shape. I just hope the dogs don't find it first. Now to start the next project.
I am feeling quite Christmasy (not sure if that is a word but that is how I am feeling)my oldest daughter put the bows up the driveway we have the back door step decorated it looks really pretty. Our Christmas scene is up in the kitchen which I will post later. Yes, I know it is a little early so I decided to join our neighbors in the USA because they are starting their holiday season very soon so I too am decorating:) well must go pick up my daughter from a birthday party talk to you all soon.

Rain, rain, rain, snow and more rain!
Our weather is very crazy you never know what you will wake up to in the morning. My husband is a Logging truck driver and he is driving with three sets of chains on and yet the loggers beside them had been shut down for too much rain and mud. Go figure. I took advantage of the no frost today and went and dug a tunnel under the fence from my Alpaca pen all the water runs in their direction so I had to go dig or buy them a boat. I try to analyze the Alpaca girls to see if them have been bred but I still can not notice they look a little fuller but then their coats have grown on them. I guess come April and may I will find out.
I few posts back I wrote about taking the scenic route not bad luck well we definitively take the scenic route yesterday we were told our book keeper was coming from Kamloops for 4:0 clock so fine. It means a lot of shuffling, now for most people no big deal for us bid deal. First arrange a pick up for the kids at the bus stop, then arrange for my husband to get home on time which in turns totally screws up his day and the people he hauls for and then add a broken hose, no air, flat tire, tire repair man in a meeting, cell phone breaking down etc (that was just his day) My oldest son had to make arrangements to go from dry land training to some peoples house who only just met us, get picked up fed supper try to do his homework get taken to the arena and stay in town until 9:30pm. My middle son had to eat supper at 4pm arrange for my dad to go take him to hockey and then we would pick him up. I could go on with this but you get the picture. So the book keeper does not show and then at 6:30 I get a phone call that the book keeper might come on Tuesday, no phone call no e-mail or fax and yet I talked with them last week. Welcome to our world we do quite fine with our life it is silly stuff like that, that screws us up. So we get to do it all again to day and all of this just to tell us how much we have to pay the government.
I have sewn together the poncho for my niece to give as a gift but I am a little worried it might be too long so I am going to wash it in hot water and give it a little felt job wish me luck. Worse case is she has to buy something else for her gift and me I get a new Poncho. It looks quite nice I won't post a picture until it is finished.
Well I must run off to parent teacher interviews but first a shower because I smell like the barn. Have a wonderful day.

What a nice weekend only two hockey games and we all went to the one out of town to Salmon Arm we woke up at 5am my oldest son played at 10:45. We watched his game then went on to Kamloops and I bought my oldest two girls new dresses for the Christmas formal and my youngest daughter says she needs more pants so she got a new pair of jeans. I sent the boys with their dad to the sports stores because if their dad had been there no shopping would have been done.
There has been not too much knitting done but I have finished the poncho I just have to put it together and work on the neck and tassels. I am working on a toque ( not sure on that spelling but it is better than saying hat)
I am still hanging cages it is a lot of work to get them even and try to use my small space the best way I can. I am tempted to use this shed until I can move them into my sheep barn but I am not sure what the best thing to do is. However knowing me I will change it and make a whole bunch of more work for myself.
I have plans to change my yard around my house this spring I would do it now but I have to wait until all my roses are dormant, so as soon as I can work the ground in the spring I will start. What I do I keep a book for all my great ideas (the stuff that keeps me working until all hours of the night).
On our travels I love to look at people's homes and if they are scruffy It makes me want to come home and clean and change things. I think my husband just dreads when I get a new idea he thinks a home should only have grass not me... Roses, flowers, arches, ornaments, roses, flowers , roses, flowers I think you get the picture.

The sun was shining and the sky was blue which was a nice change for awhile. I took full advantage of the nice day and worked out side for most of it until I had to go to town for my youngest daughters volley ball game which she one. I also drove to town tonight to take my middle daughter to the high school where she is being a "tecky" or is it techy any way whatever that is she is one for the school variety show. I was dreading waiting in the van for 3 hours but a neighbor from up the road offered to bring her home so I got to come home after a quick visit with my mother in law. I got straight to work on my books and I am all up to date! So no knitting in today's time. I am nearly finished the knitting process of my project once I am finished I have to assemble it and put on tassels. I hope all is well but I must go to bed it is amazing how fast the night time goes my alarm goes off way too soon.

Finished all finished. The last of my cages are built I finished the last two today in a terrible windy wet cold storm. So I now have to figure out how I am going to hang them but no rush I can do that in snow. I actually just wish someone else would do it for me but I do believe it will be me hanging them. The total cages it gives me is 28 - 30 new cages I just hope after all that work I can hang them like I want to.
Yesterday was a sad day we lost our little Yorkshire Terrier dog "TY" he was only 5 years old sometimes one wonders why we have pets when it so hard when they die. I also lost a little Angora kid the weather is so hard on them all this rain then freezing and every year it seems to be the same. I wish you could see the rain right now it is just crazy outside I hope it is filling up every pond every lake and well. This type of rain is quite amazing for us we may get one or two good storms a year but we are getting a good batch of rain this last month. Well I must get supper ready Hockey picture night tonight it is crazy we must be absolutely on time, if we are even a minute late they do not wait and you miss the team picture. For someone with one or two children no big deal just go for your time have a photo and leave but for larger families we are there the whole time and they don't want you hanging the around the arena but where do we go...

I have been building cages like crazy. Yes! My wire has finally arrived and my hands are rough cut up and blistered not very lady like at all. I was pretty brutal at first I wrecked so many clips on the wire and I finally was getting the hang of it and then I had to go to hockey. So I hope to get another one finished tomorrow but I actually don't think I will get time until Tuesday and then I bet there will snow. I have done very little spinning but more in the knitting department. I will update more later must go and put wood on the fire. Have a Good Night

Last night I went to my middles son's band concert it was quite good it is amazing how just under 2 months they can play songs. The middle school has an amazing turn out of parents there must be 300 or so guests. I think the band teacher mentioned around 177 ( not quite sure now) students are in the grade 7 and 8 band. My son was really sweet I could actually see him through the crowd and he kept smiling at me, the whole evening I was waiting on him to bail but he did just fine.
Today parent teacher interviews, packing for my boys tournament and I finally received my wire now to build cages. There has not been too much knitting going on my last few times in the arena I have been busy or had to sit through a meeting because the boys on the team can't get along and at another meeting I had to sit politely and listen to the teacher and at the concert I thought it would be rude. The one meeting is about my oldest son going to Quebec on a French class exchange so I thought I had better write down a few notes so I would remember to tell my husband all about it and my son goes mom don't write you'll embarrass me. So at the hockey meeting I did not knit so I would not embarrass him and he goes later "Oh it would make no difference to me (if I knit) I don't care no big deal " Sometimes I just can't win. Well off to start the day have a Good One

I am finished my vest YEAH it is not too hard to make but it is the next step to making something one can wear. It is very exciting to finish a project it is a great feeling. However I wonder if I wear it out to the barn if my Ram will notice...
The joys of being a hockey family we have been running crazy all weekend I am just waiting on kids to get ready then off we go again. Yesterday we were up by 5am and not home again with hockey all finished until after 10 pm. This weeks we had 21 ice times and 12 of those games most of them 1 1/2 long with an hour before to be there.
So I am onto a good start with my new Poncho it is hard to come up with colours. I love colour it is so fun to match it up but it does consume a lot of time. I am hoping my wire arrives this week for my cages so I can get those built up before it gets too cold. Anyways must run the ice is calling us. Have a Wonderful day

Winter Scene
This is a picture of our first frosty snow fall I am trying a new way to publish photos, if this works it way easier.
Crazy weather
First we get wind howling wind, then we get up to -13, then we get snow, then we get more snow and then we get rain... All within the week and I will tell you all that adds up to one thing MUD. Mud that is tramped through my house mud that makes my sheep and Angora goats look horrible.
I am a very scared winter driver I had my son's shop class putting on my winter tires just in time for when I picked up the van and it was snowing pretty good. All the way home I got a throbbing headache just from stress it is horrible to be a scared driver it really puts a damper on things.
I am working on two projects one is a poncho made out of Angora it may be a project in progress as I am sure I will have to stop and spin in between. Another one is a poncho to make for my niece for her to give somebody for Christmas. So I must not be slow and get straight to that one.
Last night I got out of hockey duty I sent my oldest son with the neighbors I had to stay home and clean my kids room with me gone every night, every weekend and working outside or in town during the day one can get behind real fast. However I won their rooms are clean, cupboard's cleaned out toys put away. I really like my house clean there is nothing nicer than waking up and walking through a clean house. Well off to find coffee with my mom and dad.

Good Morning
Another weekend gone by. Yesterday on our last ice time my oldest daughter plays for Midget house and they were playing a team from out of town there was a bench brawl. I have heard of them but never seen one and all I was hoping my daughter would stay on the bench and not get in the middle of all those boys fighting. We have 3 -5 girls on our team and none of them seem to aggressive. It was crazy all the kids were fighting but I am not sure what about. So now I am not sure what is going to happen the coach sounded like he quit last night it seems so unfair always a few people have to wreck it for the other's.
We have had our first snow fall yesterday the wind is very cold and it froze to just about -10 last night. It caught me off guard the cold so I hope all my bunnies are okay. I know the goats and sheep will be warm but it never fails we always get a hard rain before a cold spell.
I have finished knitting the two pieces for my vest now I must figure out how to put it together. I am little worried my pieces do not match. Only time will tell. I also started knitting some beautiful white Angora I had spun it thick and thin and added a touch of sparkle. It is very pretty so I hope the finished product is just as nice.
Anyways have a Great day off to wake up children.

Good Morning It is Friday Yeah!
Today is a Soccer tournament for my ten year old daughter so lets hope the weather holds up in previous years we have played soccer in blowing cold wind, snow and rain. Last night was the high school dance and concession duty at the arena it was the first time I didn't mind concession duty only myself and one other parent in the arena last night. Do you ever wonder were do all the other parents go? The arena was better than sitting in the van until 10pm I only had to sit for 1 1/2 hours I parked under a street light knitted and listened to my ipod not too bad. This dance is better than the Christmas dance that waiting is just too cold. In the arena last night I was trying my luck at spindle spinning I find the spinning wheel way easier and spindle spinning the curses just fly out of your mouth. I have not enough wool of my Shetland and silk for the vest I am trying to make I have just a small amount left to spin so I hope to make it go far. Anyways only have of my children are up. I am off to go find the rest. Have a wonderful day.

Yeah I got out of hockey duty tonight my husband does not have to leave at 2am so he went tonight. However it is the calm before the storm the next two nights are hectic with concession duty. Today I had a nice lunch with my neighbors it is so easy to by past taking the time to visit but when one does take the time it is quite nice. I am to go to spinning tomorrow but I am just not in the mood I have to be in town from 2:30pm until 10pm and I find it is just getting too much with the running around. Today was a beautiful fall day a little wet this morning but quite nice by 3pm and I enjoyed going out watering the rabbits and checking all the animals out. Well I must run I hope to go to bed early but I always get a second wind and I end up staying up way too late.

Our Shetland Ram has beautiful fleece but he is very unpredictable at 6 months he was already bashing fences we are not too sure how long he will stick around. It is not worth having the worry with him, the kids can't go in the pen when he is out and we are always looking over our shoulder. When we had the sheep and goats out in the yard he rammed the dog and rammed our blow up ghost.
Building Cages is not an easy task. Without the right tools you end up with blood blisters, cut fingers and a lot of cursing. However I won I have put together four and I am waiting on the rest of the wire to finish off the job. It is such a nice feeling when a big job is done. I had a little trouble putting rabbits in the shiny new cages but it is done. I came in and made a business card label for each bunny with their name, age tattoo and mamma's name. I won't be working with the Rabbits today I have to bake, have supper ready early(so my daughter can feed everyone) while I go off to hockey tonight. If I do work with the bunnies everyone eats wool!
Tomorrow I am having three of my neighbors over for lunch so I just finished baking a cake.
On the weekend my oldest son broke his $130.00 hockey stick I felt so sorry for him after his last game he can hardly walk, sore swollen knees, two sore wrists and he tells me he is still having fun...My middle son told me in his last game he hit the glass or boards (he is not sure which) so hard first everything blurred then he saw double of everything. I am sure that is not good however nobody listens to me when I think they should take up a milder sport. My two daughters won both of there games the youngest got the first goal on her team.
I am half way finished my vest but I had to put knitting on hold while my left wrist healed up it hurt so bad I had to wear a braces I do that now and again if I do too much hay yard work etc.
I think my next project is either going to be a Mohair blanket or a new poncho in dark colours. Only time will tell, I should also get caught up my scrap-booking and I have to think Christmas. I am ahead in buying some of the kids presents but I must get more organized on it soon. Have a wonderful day

Dogs Dogs Dogs
Our lives are revolving around our 4 legged friends. The other day my parents took their Saint Bernard Dog to the vet for a sore leg and he never came home he had advanced bone cancer that had already move on to his lungs. It was really sad we had no idea and it caught us off guard. Then my Yorkshire Terriers eye is healing but really looks ugly and it is quite awful. I don't think he will see out of it again. Then we have two new puppies which I am pretty sure my husband has not notices yet but I hear him driving in with the logging truck right now so I am sure he will notice because it is his first time coming home in the daylight hours. Which I will post this later.... Back soon
Well he may of noticed but no comment. We are on our 5th trip to town and two of those go out of town to the next towns and we for sure a have two more maybe 3 more trips. Do you know how much gas that is? Well I must run to the arena talk to you all soon.

All Rabbits are caught up and they are sporting nice new hair cuts. I am waiting on some new wire so I can redo some of my cages it will be nice to get them all organized before the snow hits. Some of my Angora Rabbits are so beautiful you just have to stop grooming them and give them a hug they are so fluffy and kissable. I was reading my New Holland magazine at the arena tonight and there was an article about a man who buys Holstein calves and nurses them back to health and then re- sells them. Anyway it makes me want to go buy a new born calf from the auction we used to do that when we were kids and they are so lovable with their big brown trusting eyes. A new calf is honestly the best it is a good thing I do not live near the auction or I would probably have one by the end of the week. Another thing I would love to do is raise a bunch of bottle goat (kids) one time my mom brought me home 10 -12 babies it was so much fun a lot of work but fun. Anyways enough dreaming. I started spinning some beautiful Alpaca and silk today it is so nice to spin. I tried posting some photos yesterday but they would not load so I will try again tomorrow.

A Nice Weekend
I had a nice weekend at the Cache creek Retreat Desert Messa. My neighbor and I left at 10:35 am and arrived in Cache Creek in time to stop at a cute gift store and I bought my family a gift pack of a variety of fudge. Then we met another Lady and had lunch then of to the Retreat. I helped set up chairs, helped carry supply's in. Then I set up my spinning wheel and spun all weekend. I did accomplish lots and I visited some very nice ladies, ate lots and nobody should eat as much as we did it is a good thing it is only once a year:)I was very tempted to buy an Antique Spinning Wheel it was very nice NO I do not need it but she was very sweet. I should go order her...
My family faired well did a lot of hockey bought three pairs of new skates a few new hockey sticks.
Today I sheared a bunny and I hope to do one again tomorrow and then one the next day and I should be caught up. I have ordered some wire for new cages so when that gets here I will be kept busy for awhile. Well I must go I am off to a soccer game, hockey game, concession duty, and two hockey practices so talk to you all soon.

Tomorrow I am off for my Spinning Retreat I am looking forward to it. I had a great time last year even though I only knew a few people. I am traveling over with my neighbor, she and her friend are the two who put on the retreat. I am taking my Aplaca Fibre to the lady who owns Crofton mills so it is really exciting. I am a little worried on leaving my husband with all the hockey he has 2 games out of town both over 3-4 hours traveling plus two games in town and three practices. I will put on my cell phone, turn it to vibrate so I don't disrupt the hum of Spinning wheels. That way I will be a phone call away for moral support :) Last year my youngest son was a little lost with the shuffle so I hope they will all be okay this time.
I had to take in 4 logging truck tires and a big tank of something (to do with welding or cutting) into town for my husband which they were all very dirty. He goes "I always run all over to Kamloops for you" and Yeah how dirty does he get in Kamloops or how heavy are they. He has no sense of humor over it :)
I managed to do a lot of knitting at the arena we had all four of the ice times in town last night but I find because I am so cold I must tense up because my fingers and shoulders really hurt. Heat is the only thing that makes them feel better.
Anyways have a wonderful weekend and talk to you all soon.

A long weekend coming to an end. It was a busy time but we managed to fit in a Turkey dinner we had it at 7 pm Sunday night. My mom cooked the turkey and brought it over to our house it was really nice. However my younger kids were so wired they were bouncing of the roof. Do you know the Christmas excitement hyper... well they were worse than that. It is truly amazing I do not have gray hair.
The hockey was good but very rough, today my oldest boy played in the finals for first place they came second. He was in about 20 seconds of his first shift in the first period and he hit head on with a very large boy and he hurt his chest. He could not breath until he reached they bench and was spitting up blood. After awhile of coaxing he agreed to go the hospital where they checked him out and took an xray and it turned out clear. Now he hurts really bad, has trouble breathing and when he move a certain way it really bothers him and has a huge headache. He is 6 feet tall but weighs under 150 lbs. I can handle lot of things except when my kids get hurt but I handled it quite well you don't count my hands were shaking so bad that when I was knitting I made a huge mess.
So tonight we are into our 4th on-ice time I will head in about 8:45 to pick up my daughter.
I have been doing some Wonderful dyeing with Mohair. Mohair takes the colour so well it is great to work with. I am heading to my retreat next weekend and I am very excited so I should prepare by not eating much this week so I can sit around all weekend spinning ,knitting and eating. Have a wonderful evening.

Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving (In Canada) Everyone! The start of a long weekend I truly love holidays the only thing is life does not slow down enough to enjoy the holidays at home. We will spend ours with 15 ice times one game 2 1/2 hours away, two time keeping plus two concession duties (not while my child is on the ice)and then two ice times to work the gate for the tournament. If one sat down and did the math you notice that is just about the darn weekend. However the kids are very excited and just think how much knitting I will get done.
Last night in a terrible wind we wet up this lovely blow air thing that is a ghost for Halloween it is white and it looks like he claps his hands. He looks pretty friendly, I just hope it does not scare my niece and nephew when they come to visit. I think my kids should be passed being scared.
You will notice on my last blog post the comment was from my sister so now I hope the rest of my family will leave me a comment and Heide you will notice she said favorite so now you will just have to up one on her :)well this is just a quick hello I must hop in the shower and meet my son and husband at the area he is on the ice at 7am. Have a Wonderful weekend .Take photo's and make Great memories.

Busy times
The Angora goats are sheared and of course the weather is changing. I am pulling plants out of the garden. It is so hard to do they are all so beautiful but I know any day now the weather will change for good. It is so hard to believe it is October so close to Christmas. The next few weeks are busy so I imagine October will also fly by. We have cross country runs, hockey tournaments, School pot luck suppers, Thanksgiving, retreat, my mom's birthday and my mom and dad's anniversary. Plus a whole lot more. For my mom's birthday I will try to think of something cool I do have a good idea, of course I can not write it here because she will read it and then it will be NO surprise!
I just about pulled the plug on my blog but I enjoy writing it, and in away it is the only type of journal I have kept for some time. However It is one thing to get it written but I very seldom reread it and one just hopes it actually publishes. Then I find out there is a lot of typos and grammar errors. However if you all excuse the fact I don't always reread it or that I usually have 7 people trying to tell me a story and it is impossible to concentrate.
I am knitting a vest so we will see how it turns out. Just don't hold your breath for the finished product it may take me awhile. I have a had many people ask about my knitting at the arena and they seem quite interested in spinning so maybe they will get the spinning bug! Well I am quite tired tonight take care

Looking back over my Blog I am sure I posted a entry since the last one but I can not see it so I am thinking it is in Cyber Space floating. We have been incredibly busy here I have built two gates put in 6x6 x8 square fence posts so each gate hangs and joins in the middle at our bottom entrance I have painted them white so it looks real nice. We were hanging them in the dark last night with the light from the tractor ( there is just not enough day light these days)and of course it did not go smooth. So my husband and son were scheming how to make it open wide enough so the low bed and logging truck loaded can go through. I am not saying too much because we still had a lot to do and it was getting late and I just wanted it done. However there is always a reason for what I do it may not seem like it but always I have a good reason. The gate was built with small spaces between wood to keep out the neighbors dogs out and to keep my dogs in, to keep out the ranch below cows, the other neighbors Llama and the Reserve horses out and to keep my donkey in. Yet now my gate is hanging up side down bigger space now on the bottom and it is just plain back to front and yet I am still trying to keep the peace so I said "Oh it is okay I will just hang a wreath on it and it will be fine" My son starts to laugh and they flipped the gates moved them about and now they are all fine.
Did you ever notice that the simple things always seem to take the long way around yesterday we had 4 ice times a whole day of a refing Clinic and on the last ice time which was 2 hours long the coach then decides to add on dry land training it is Sunday night and no hope for a Sunday family dinner (on top of it we ended up in the concessions stand again) My poor daughter had to cook supper and after many, many phone calls supper was turned up turned down and then just turned off. I also ended up to the early morning practice with my youngest son to find his skates not there my other daughter had them and she was at a friends house...Honestly I could go on and on about our crazy weekend but it is just to long to type.
During our hectic weekend our little Yorkshire Terrier end up shook by a bigger dog which then caught his eye and made his eye ball pop out so it was a dash to the vet on a Sat. Which they close at noon so over time, surgery, medicine and thank God the vet did not have time to get the bill ready. I'm okay with ignorance, what I don't know will keep me calm :)
With all the busy things knitting has been put on the back burner but I did finish the fingerless gloves I was working on and I did spin up two bobbins of thick and thin Angora now I just need to ply them together and I am spinning some lovely Mohair that I dyed at our dyeing workshop.
On Wed. My spinning group is coming here for the day so that should be fun. I hope to post photo's but lately I can not get any pictures to post.

This is my one daughter who has not caught the flue yet she is trying to stay healthy.
Good Morning I am a little sick of tomatoes I put up another 40lbs yesterday this time I blended them and then put them into freezer Zip lock bags which would be no big deal until I was rushing because it was time to go to the School bus so I loaded all the bags into a large bowl and then promptly dropped one going down the back stairs and it exploded all over the boot room. The exploding was enough to make me mad but I just recently re-did the whole room in a lovely white with very white accessories (not very practical for 8 eight people who live on a farm). It is amazing you all did not hear me:)
I am dealing with sick children still this flue is going through the whole bunch of them I get one half way through it then another one starts. I can handle the sick kids it is waiting for it to hit when and where will I be near them or will they be at school and my one son could not hit a toilet or sink if he was paid, so how do I politely keep him out of the living room or out of his newly renovated room which he is on the top loft bed.
I have been working on some more fingerless gloves for my youngest daughter but she picked the wool I only have one ball of this fluffy purple/pink wool so I hope to be able to make them out of it. If I don't I guess it calls for a shopping trip to Kamloops which is about 1 hour and 20 minutes to an hour and a half away. It is very hard to find much in our town.
Anyways I am way behind schedule must go get the rest of the sleepy heads that are not up yet.

I had a Great time at our dye work shop even though it rained, thundered and lighting throughout the day. We were quite cold but what a lot of fun. I came up with some crazy colours and my Mohair dyed beautiful it takes the colour real well.
Tonight my three youngest children and I stayed home after I sweet talked my husband into going to hockey and to take the kids into town to the school dance. We went outside in the rain moved chickens to a different house, cleaned the chicken house and then raked out the barn and sorted our first bag of Alpaca to get it ready to head to the mill.
Today I washed, cubed 30 lbs of tomatoes and put them in the freezer, what a long job but it is done. Tomorrow I must do the peaches but I also must head into the bank and Oh my gosh I hate going to the bank I will do anything to get out of it.
The other night I had something get in top my very expensive Alpaca grain I had it in a large tupperware garbage container plus another container and who ever it was totally squashed my garbage can in half actually bent it right into two and then completely flipped the other bin over tipped all grain then threw it over and of course it rained all night so the grain is wrecked and did I mention you cannot buy that grain in our town. I am pretty sure it was a bear which the novelty of them is really wearing off.
Well I must go so have a Wonderful night and take care

Starting already
It is the second week of school and I already have sick children my youngest daughter threw up all night and then today she had very bad stomach ache, no energy and a head ache. It was another day that was not in the plans but other than my poor girl being sick it was a good day. I did a lot of indoor stuff vacuumed, cleaned desk, filled more water into outside pond, Prepare my wool for tomorrow.
Tomorrow our guild is getting together for a dye workshop so I have my wool soaking in water and vinegar. I am looking forward to it I hope to take some photos that I can post. The only reason why I would not be able to go if any of my kids are sick but my mom said they could stay with her but I will just wait and see how things look in the morning. I will leave home around 8:15 am and not return home until 7 pm that is if my husband can do one of the meetings that I have to do. I pick up my middle son from school after the dye workshop do some banking and then school meeting at 4pm hockey at 5pm the I go home after hockey and my husband brings in my daughter for her meeting. I am pretty sure I wrote about this already but I guess in my mind if I keep replaying it , It will all fall into place.
I finished a lovely soft Angora hat today and I finished my fingerless gloves and now my youngest daughter would like a pair so we went out to the shed to pick her yarn we will be using synthetic not wool so we can wash them over and over.

September 11
Five years ago everyone of has a story of how we heard, what we were doing, how we felt,and today we relive every emotion and we get that same sick feeling of not being able to make it go away. My heart goes out to everyone I truly believe no one in this whole world was left untouched. I wish you all peace and happiness.
Today was a crazy day at 9:20am my mom phoned me that my miniature pony who is not up to my knees was up on our top property laying on her back with her feet in the air. My dad found her when he was looking for our crazy ungrateful cow. I went out and I started to walk her but before that I had to find a halter, so on went a goat rope halter (which is useless) and I continued to walk her till 2pm. As soon as we would stop she would lay down and roll and again she would look just like she was dead. I had to cancel my appointment to meet someone, phone my husband to come home early so he could go to hockey for me and the walking would be easy for 41/2 hours if I did not have to drag her and pull the whole way now all I have is a sore back and sore knees but a live horse. At 2pm as soon as my husband drove in the driveway with the logging truck I put her in the shade and she smelt the water dipped her lips in it and tried to eat grass. I honestly thought she would not make it but she is standing however she is very tired looking.
I did go to hockey and when I was gone a huge pine tree that had been killed by bugs fell down and just missed our chicken house NO WIND! Which then scared Donkey who tried to run through the wire fence and made the dogs go crazy. Then later on out of the blue, down comes the crazy cow bellering on top of her lungs and still has the fire in her eyes of fear so we move goats around open gates and now she is in the corral. Our property if fenced for goats and sheep not crazy red headed cows. So we will tip toe around until she settles. Then my oldest son takes the old truck that we are going to restore for a drive down to the river to look at a large spawning Salmon and breaks down so he is late for hockey or late for the time the coach would like them there, not a good thing on the night of the first cuts. Now I am waiting for my oldest son to come home to see if he made the first cuts of the team. All of that today so no knitting, no spinning except the spinning I did before I woke the kids at 6am. I had great plans but I will do them tomorrow. Have a wonderful day, be thankful for your families and count your blessings. Talk to you all soon.

We have accomplished a lot this weekend today we dewormed our goats and sheep however we ran out of Ivomac before we could finish so we only have 9 left to do. It went well actually it went real smooth nice when it goes quick. Then I groomed 5 young Angora's, one adult and sheared one adult. The above took me the whole day and I was so dirty after it was done. I also went looking for our MIA Heifer my mom and dad brought her home we unloaded her two seconds later she jumped the fence and broke the top rail and now is as wild as can be on our top property. Cows are very ungrateful!
My boys had hockey all weekend now Monday night is the first cut for Midget Rep hockey so we will see where we stand after that and I think Pee Wee Rep's first cut is Wednesday. Then Thursday all our hockey starts Heaven help us it will be a night mare around here. All six of our children will have ice time, some will get double till they make the teams and our last will end sometimes at 11pm.
On Wednesday we have to be at three places at once hockey, CMS School, and an Advid Mss school meeting. During the day on Wednesday I am going to a dye work shop with my spinning group so I am trying to prepare for that now.
On my spinning wheel I am plying my Shetland and silk it is so beautiful I hope it knits up as nicely as it has spun.
Talk to you all soon have a great evening.

Back to routine
Well school has started, hockey has started, 7 lunches a night has started and all seems well. The kids seem to have adjusted okay they were all a little nervous the first day but they met up with friends, wore new clothes and are trying to accept some of their teachers think they are GOD.
My renovations are down it looks quite nice but my goodness what a lot of work to do with one job you mess up three rooms and I had three jobs on the go so you can imaging the mess. I really hate to paint I have decided it is a lot like labor once it has started you can't stop you just have to push ahead to get it finished but when it is finished there is such satisfaction.
We have gone down to the auction sold 5 goats, 4 roosters and at the same time sold our 14 laying hens and three banty hens to our neighbor.
My Angora rabbits are due for a hair cut so it is time to work on getting the fibre off. My two Giant Angora X's have beautiful fibre and I can't wait to shear them and spin it. With the three breeds of Angora that I have I find the Giant x German are easiest to work with, then French and then the English. The English is very, very fine and I find it hard to control but they are beautiful rabbits and very friendly. I find my English Angora Does are my best mom's.
I have to run now because I just thought I might not have turned off the barn water.

Hello
What is this no sleep thing I have going on I do believe it is becoming a habit. Last night 3 hours sleep we had a coyote right out front and it sounded like screaming and I had thought it got one of our dogs. So my husband I went out with flash lights and he drove the van around at 1am and he has to go to work at 2am. Then tonight or actually it is now early morning I think we have bear. My dogs have barked the whole night so of course I have been awake since 2am. I lay there worrying about the animals because I know I can't run a gun and my dad is away and I am not too sure when I go out what I would do if I come face to face with one. My neighbor a few years ago has lost sheep and an Alpaca to bears. I don't like to have to shoot them but sometimes they just become to aggressive. So I have cleaned up the house, I am printing pictures, caught up on my e-mails.
I am renovating I have taken down the walls and while I was in the process my heart was beating so fast because I knew I was too far gone to turn back and all I could picture was me wrecking something real bad. Then my husband came home and after he tried to ignore the fact I had torn the house apart he helped me. We are going to paint the walls which is a huge thing for us a little scary but I will keep you posted.
Well must run have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the last few days before school.
