quiet saturday

It has been a quiet day today.  Small Mister and myself ran errands this morning.  We now have six dozen eggs for travels.  And a complete tent that can sleep six people.  I had to go to three stores to pick up all the pieces.  There is another tent of that same size that I like.  If we need another, I may put that on my list.  We are going up to the land and I can see when we have family visit where two tents and the trailer will be needed.  I heard that there was talks of Sasquatch hunting going on.  The boys make me smile.  What else are you supposed to do in the woods but hunt Sasquatch?  I am working on making sure I have anough yarn which means that I card and spin some each day.  Not very exciting but it needs to be done.

I made sure I had some flowers for myself though.  Soon, I will be planting peonies on the mountain.  I cannot wait!  The deer will love me I know.  They like the sweetness.  But that is life with wildlife.

while we were waiting for the smallest short person to be born....

I sat with the Tallest Short Person and talked a lot.

I picked up these curly locks in Asheville, at SAFF.  The sheep they came from was named Bella.  I spent most of Saturday working with the fiber and talking to the Tall Short Person.

It looks like this.

And ends up looking like this.  It is something I can do while talking.  But not holding the smallest short person.

I do things like cook dinner.  I can do that with one hand.

Or drink tea and read.  The room we were in was a bit chilly so I wrapped us in an alpaca shawl I made years ago.  I am making another in a different pattern.  This gave his Momma a few minutes to get a few things settled before baths.

But I still need two hands to card wool.  The Smallest Short Person may slow down the process a bit!
