TNNA Show in San Diego

So Yesterday I went to Visit my Aunt and she has Chickens.




Mom got me a root beer Float.

I went to go to San Diego this morning for the TNNA Show.

On the way I saw this.



There was Traffic. I took a picture of where I parked, because I knew I wouldn't remember. I took the Misti People ( ( I got to see the mock up for the Pattern book that was done on the summer Internship and it is awesome) some stuff. I saw Morgaine.


I saw Trish who was great, and Steven of course. Also in the booth was Shelly.

There was mustard being given out with yarn… I know

I saw all the new yarns for the year which were impressive.

I think I might be going blind, or blinder, as on the way Home I couldn’t see so well ( I just got a new RX in October).

On the way home




Me and mom had Fish tacos

I gave mom some yarn she wanted.



The Blue is Blue Sky Alpaca Suri merino, The Pink is Blue Sky Alpaca Silk and Alpaca.

Tomorrow the great trek home.

The Day after

So Don’t ask me why but after like 5 hours I had to wake up. I woke up with a sprained swollen ankle. I don’t know how. It was fine when I went to bed and no I didn’t hit it. So I spent a lot of the day with ice on it. Then I went with mom to her Spanish class.

So here are all my goodies











My Aunt sent me a hat she made and some tea cups





My mom Also made me dinner, Duck.



Roast Duck Food

Things I learned

1) Don't Assume anything about airlines, or the weather.
2) Not Knitting on a Plane because of Security REALLY Sucks.
3)Giardia SUCKS ( you can't fix all with Imodium)
4) You can never bring back too much Tea or Yarn ( the health risks of lugging two checked and two carry ons through multiple immigration are worth it)
5) Your country is your Country and no matter what happens in your life, nothing is like coming home.
6)Know someone with a good scale when moving yarn.
7) Inner peace is important and knowing how to maintain your temper (This is true of traveling with no paper book and no knitting).
8)Always Ask if your in front of the emergency Exit row, no matter how much you think you can tolerate, you can't.
9)You can sprain your ankle while sleeping.
10) The smell of cooking panettone can really make you estatic.

WOW,

So I had received a note form Lisa ( Misti Alpaca) asking if I had gotten a box. Well I hadn’t I went to the post office, where I have a PO BOX, it had been here for 8 days, they just “forgot” (which they do a lot here ) to give me a slip.

WOW
