Oh more you know it is more...

So some things have happened. Since the last posting

I found a dead rat in the yard. My mom also foudn a Vole.... I hope none of my neighbors are using posion.



My chickens I thought had herpes but it turned out to a mild beak injury.


So I fed them some Yogurt and they loved it.




Sara and I had Vietmanese Food.



Mom came on Friday and brought up 1000 Silk worms.
Yeah that was 1000 Silk Worms....




750 are in their final instar and sbout to spin.... but are not... it is cold in Humboldt so we are trying to keep them warm

The other 250 are small and I have some chow... but they don't like it and .... so if you live in Humboldt County and have a Fruiting Mulberry or whie Mulberry tree and you have leaves please contact me ASAP. Or if your going to Black Sheep Gathering...

I had for breakfast my eggs in a basket ...



My car locked while the doors were open while I was at Accident Gallery Working. Phyllis and Matthew were nice enough to put me in my car and tape all the doors shut.

AH! I m still here, barely.

So been MIA For a while I know.

I had gotten this Chicken from Orick ( click here to read about it). She was at Sherri house. Well the other chickens didn't like her ( sherries or mine), they tried to kill her, and I think she might have been a bit inbred because she sat there and just let them peck her to death and her mouth gapped open. I had tired everything I could so I wouldn't have to get rid of her, she wasn't laying any eggs after over a month and none of the other chickens liked her. I really wanted to paint and draw her but it looked like it wasn't going to work out. I had to take her back up to Orick.SO good bye to my little Fluffy Chicken.

Next item My Socks.I handspun my sock yarn, three ply and I am using 00 for the needles. I ribbed the whole first one, then decided maybe I have been making socks the wrong way. So I started to rib then went to Stockinette..... Hmmm...

Heel Yarn:



Can't Decide if you have any ideas let me know.

Computer: Still being crap I need to have a Dell service person come out....

Rat: Caught one in the Shed, I flung it in the yard of a neighbor it looked more like a rural field then my shed.


Arts Alive: I totally flaked pictures... Here is guild member Weaving



Eggs: Tasty but not quite as good as I was hoping for in Color



Chickens: Charming as usual. I love the Roo he is so Wonderful

Hat: Sherri gave me this hat in trade for one of my Ceramic Chickens.

Que Up.

So Thursday night I went to Sip and Knit at NCK, and Harry gave me my socks.
I had him knit them on his sock machine but my sock yarn making skills must have lacked because the first one wasn’t elastic enough and caused Harry a head ache.




Sorry Harry, but thanks for making them





Here is Carol who decided to take out some of her sweater and it was just sitting there, live stitches and all. Scary I know…..




At NCK they have these cool new leather buttons that would look awesome on a purse or hat…



I got my hair colored and on the way back I saw this cool Mural…



My Hair it is different... with darker low lights...





There was this lady at Costo… Who was rude.. and complaining that she couldn’t get out the exit she wanted to because my car was in the way ( she was suppose to go left not to the right according to the arrows, and was haggling an older lady in front of her to move….) all at Costco while on her headless phone set while having a way too loud conversation.


Mom and I went to the Banana hut…
She had I had Shoyu chicken
I had Lau Lau Pork



Look at how nice the back yard looks?
