Update.. Chickens... Sickness... Wood Chopping.

2009-11-13T19:41:00.000-08:00

So A lot has been happening.

I cleaned out the chicken garage that I created last Sunday. I got some dust in my lungs…

I haven’t been able to go to school all week. I went to the Dr and they gave me an inhaler which hasn’t made things any better. I can’t breathe and that’s the sum of it. I don’t have a cough or a fever….

After I went to the Propaganda Show on Monday I saw these books about knitting. Odd hu? Knitting in the woods.This was in a display for the Bookstore.

I keep also breaking Ceramics. There was Oatmeal for the pullets in this. I dropped them cause there was spider hanging in my face.

I also lost a pullet. I had the younger chickens in the front of the yard .At the end of the day I went to put them away and one of the hens jumped into the backyard with the adults. I finished putting the others away then I went to find her. I didn’t. Its been three days. I hope some nice kid kept them as a pet, and not dinner for some foul raccoon.

I also started Flying Monkey an etsy store. But where I don't have Photoshop on my computer I can't take a print screen.... and I think Livejournal Won't let you connect it to your blog like eblogger.

Then there are some big spiders in my house. Don’t believe me?

Sent mom some apples on my many days off. Basically if I move too much I can’t breath anymore. This of course pisses me off. Cause who wants to sit around all day not doing anything????

Then I got pissed on Wednesday and went to chop wood. Because well someone has to do it. Regardless of what my ex and sister think. I think if you can chop your own wood, tend chickens, and make applesauce while you live alone in a big house you ain’t that needy.

My Friend Anna came into NCK to learn to spin. She did a great job.

So…

I went to the farmers market before work.

I bought some honey for applesauce ( wildflower) but then found bulk at the Co-Op.

Saw Sherri Who had some nice hats and yarns.

Took the back way to work…

At work I spun up my Phat fiber box to get this….

I came home and had a nice pot roast dinner with my friend had Mashed potatoes, Gravy ( it was ok) and asparagus.

Then later that night ( I don’t know how I missed it) I found my order from the Brown Sheep.

Holy crap its November

2009-11-06T09:28:00.000-08:00

I made more applesauce from golden Delicious, Rome Beauties and my Bell Flower.

Chocolate Cosmos.

Chickens, Apples, smores

2009-10-20T19:48:00.000-07:00

So.

Yesterday we ( my ceramics class) went to a local artists studio. I went to get my camera and I couldn't get the car door open ( it was someone elses car). But check her out local Humboldt Ceramic artist Peggy Louden

Painting got canceled and so I stayed home and picked apples. I had an incident where the ground ran into me.Yes needless to say it was while I was picking apples. You can't even tell I took any off.

Then I went to two classes and had to leave drawing early.

So I came home and spent quality time with the chicks. These guys hatched over the summer they are funny. Watch the videos. Here are some pictures of them, Aren’t they cute? I suspect some are roos. I love the black ones they are sweet.The other one not so much

The Younger chickens. That are also getting big

-

Here are some pictures of my apple sauce

Of my class..

Of my wool. CVM Merino I got from Velma ( Colorbomb Creations)

Of a sunset yesterday I tired to get for mom. ( it looks wrong)

So I am spending the night recouping…. Having wine and smores.

Nope I m still around

2009-10-18T11:02:00.000-07:00

So have been missing in action a lot. Painting was cut short due to dental work.

Went to dinner with an old friend and his new Girl Friend. Went to Bless my soul café I had the pulled pork that was delicious, with Black magic pudding. ( and two bottles of wine it was so tasty).

I went and picked apples. Made lots of apple sauce. Chunky, one with sugar one with Honey.

Then I spun some yarn for Heather at work. IT is a pound. It took me about 6 ish hours ( with people coming into the store.) I spun and plied four ounces.

Started ~~dating~~ having (relations?)someone new. Think I have to ~~dump~~ stop seeing them.

I bought a Phatfiber box ( can’t wait until this comes)

The Chickens are getting big and fluffy.

I Found Miss Puff who I thought was missing.

Had a critique in Graphic design and Ceramics

A test in Anime and Italian Renaissance.

Thanks to my sister for letting me know about Hulu. I was able to catch up on my shows that my tivo didn’t pick up.( East Wick, Cougar town and Flash-forward).

Cider, Arts Alive, Moon Festival

2009-10-04T21:13:00.000-07:00

2009-09-24T22:13:00.000-07:00

Well you know the sum of my week. Had to dump someone because they didn’t want to spend time with me, the wanted to spend time with another girl… and really didn’t have time to date me.
Had a dentist visit the third one in three weeks. Then Three hours of painting…

Then Animae class… Then Oh yeah I ditched Italian Ren to go and feed some Alpacas I am pet sitting . ( I really told the teacher but I think she didn’t believe I was going to feed 17 Alpacas)

New Baby Alpaca

Oh there were also Pygmy Goats

Both of these boys are for sale

A Visiting Stud A fat Fusa

EVEN MORE.

Baby

Another Stud

I warn you if you watch the you tube of the baby’s my voice is really annoying. One point the guy brought up but apparently I was in denial about…One of these alpacas just had the brown baby last night.

Hey I might be single now.... But at least I got Chicks

Here is some Wool I carded up to make novelty yarns

Weird ART I have seen while wondering around

After all that alpaca fun I went to drawing. Then came home and am in extreme dental pain. The fun continues all weekend as I work all weekend as everyone is out of town.. Yippy Skippy.

Mom sent me a Purple Rose from Jackson Perkins ( THANKS MOM).

I had a Cucumbrin at work the other day from los Bagels ( it is a bagel with cream cheese, cucumbers, Larrupin sauce {mustard Dill} and then slug slime [because of my teeth I left off the slug slime])

Then I took a picture of all the leafs at work for the contest we are doing that will go up for arts alive….

I went to the Zapotec weavers workshop at work ( this post isn’t up yet).

This is my apple tree ( one of three)

I think it is a Gravenstein….

This is another one which I believe is a Bell Flower… They just started falling off. I have previously thought them to be a baking apple…

Flowers

Eggs

Apples

Hilarious video ( well ok for me)

SO…

The fluffiness started to hatch on Saturday. ON SUNDAY I SENT TO FERNDALE TO TRY AND FIND A PET YARD. I FOUND A WHEEL AND ROSES. NO GOOD

. So I built one. IT sucked cause I suck at this.

Monday I had 2 three hour critiques. When I got home the three older chicks had scared the hen off her eggs while one of them was hatching luckily he made it.

So then I put the eggs under a hen that was sitting out side.

These are the "bigger" Chicks that hatched over the summer

Yesterday I had bad paintings…. Then art history’s. Drawings where we were advised on the H1N1 going around HSU….

Here are some fluffy videos watch them love them.. Hope the other 8 eggs hatch.

And here it is

Sometimes....

2009-09-12T21:37:00.000-07:00

I kind of wish so many people who knew me didn’t read my blog. But only some days.

Somedays I have days where I want to just tell people to F off.

Not so much people I know just random people.

Thursday was long I had a like a four hour root canal then 7 hours of class. Then I went to sip and knit. Yesterday was better but not much

Today it seemed all things started t o happen as I left the house the chicks started to hatch. I left and remembered I left a candle on. It went on and on.

Then I was trying to figure out what I was going to do with my hen that has baby’s hatching. I wanted to get a pet yard and put them in the wooden shed but mom thinks rats will eat them. I can’t put them in with the ones I have because they are too big….. IT goes on and on. This is what some days I want to tell people to F off. The fact I got a gilled dill havarti sandwich, onion soup, Riesling and a toasty fire makes it all the better. MY whole left side of my face hurts like crap from the rootcanal. The worst of the 5. Plus they got the temporary compound in my eye and it hasn’t stopped hurting since.I think eating Brown Rice Crisps with Szechnan and Brie might not be helping.

OR that fact that I watched a two hour special last nite on 9/11/ Why? Because I think being 19 when it happened I might have missed stuff. It made me sick and I had to turn off the TV.

Animae class on Thursday

I think I m just annoyed with everything in general so nothing will be right.

Last nite I went to arts Arcata… I took pictures of Christ Fortins show

This is piece he did on our Govenator

And Holly Dillys

Part of the opening was people to take pictures wearing little hoodies... Here is Heather from ceramics

The Spinning Guild was at the farmers market Sat morning

A tasty Treat from Cherry Blossom

The Crusing Eureka

AND of course my lovely Chick That I hope nothing bad happens to and all my eggs hatch.
