The hubby would rather NOT be knitting!

Last December, I got a license frame that said "I would rather be knitting". In fact, I got one each for my four knitting girlfriends. The hubby refused to put it on my car since every now & then he has to drive it. Mind you he is one of the most liberated men I know. But the license frame seems to be the tilting point. So while on vacation in Canada I had one of my wonderful brother in laws install the frame. No, not his brother, Badger. This was the brother in law who's house we stayed at while up there. Weeelllll, the other day I had to leave early for a meeting and that day he was going out to lunch to meet up with some buddies. Suddenly he's all "Go ahead & leave. I'll drive myself. blah, blah, blah, not ready, need to take shower blah, blah...". I didn't think about it until later that afternoon. He didn't want to drive my car to lunch. Busted! Rosey Grier is more macho than my hubby!

Weekend retreat

Did you know that Heineken has mini kegs? This last weekend I found that out at my Fiber Guild retreat. I forgot my Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum for my diet Coke. But I survived anyways. We also gorged ourselves on chocolate & potato chips, pizza...

These are the socks I finished knitting. To say that I'm glad to have finished them is an understatement. The pattern that was given to me was wrong. But thanks to the patience of good friends who walked me through the socks are finished. Believe me not an easy "feet". (nudge, nudge) And being a glutton for punishment I started another pair in different colors. There was a lot of knitting, spinning, sewing, quilting going on.

I called the hubby, on my way back into town, to warn him to get the naked dancing girls out. He had a bunch of buddies over &they had gamed all Saturday. He did tell me that while working on the property Sunday morning he found another fawn hit by a car. Bummer.

2007 Heart of America Fiber Festival

And I don't mean bran muffins! I'm day tripping to this on Saturday. I'm ditching the hubby & heading out with another fiber addict. I promise not to bring any live animals home. One year one of my girlfriend won a live lamb as a door prize. Coco went to live at an another fiber person's place in Harrisonville.

There have been things I've seen.... like this Jacob sheep. This one is very young imaging a big one. That's something nightmare's are made of (the horns that is). I've seen a child pulled across an arena by a sheep. I've seen wives spending money their husbands don't know about. It can be quite gasmic for a knitter, spinner, or a weaver. I promise I will try to behave.
