Spinalong!

Once upon a time, a girl got a drum carder. She joined a spinalong challenge with other super cool fiber friendly girls. They all voted on a picture to draw inspiration from... and although the girl didn't vote for the picture chosen, she gleefully carded up some fibers and spun a skein of shimmery magical yarn. :)

The handspun yarn:



The spinalong was SO much fun!! I want to do another!

My neck hurts!

I think I did something to it. I don't know what.... all the sudden it just started to hurt. I *think* it was maybe getting the infant carseat in and out of the minivan. (I still shudder a little when I say that word.... minivan.... *{{shudder}}*
....minivan.... *{{shudder}}*)
It's getting better, but it's like a headache that won't let up. It's keeping my shoulders really tense, up to my ears. I don't deal well with tension.

Plus, I have a TON of things to do around the house. I need to clean. Not that Alex believes that when he comes back to a clean house that it was clean the whole time he was gone. He knows better. He knows ME. So maybe I don't have to clean very well. Heehee.

I'm just too tired, and my neck hurts.
