Today's to do list:
Wrangle cat into carrier for vet visit โ ๏ธ
Roast coffee beans
Do some study for my gardening course
Do some actual gardening while the weather is ok
Second walkies
You forgot 'seek first aid for the scratches and wounds incurred as you tried to wrangle the cat into the carrier'
Ask me how I know ๐๐
Miss Meow is apparently much easier to wrangle than your cat, I have successfully returned wound free.
Mine is: Finish twisting 70+ skeins. Label said skeins. Make chicken and avocado pasta for dinner.
That's it. I can't do anything else at this point.
That is many skeins. Is that wool? I am intrigued by your large number of skeins.
It is! It is a Merino, silk and yak fibre blend, and I am sending a good half of out in the post tomorrow to fulfil an order. It's so soft and nice to touch, it's just a lot to get through ๐
Sounds amazing. Do you dye/spin/blend it yourself, or are you just breaking down from a bigger batch?
I dye it myself. I buy it "bare" (undyed), and then mix up fun colours and go a bit nuts. It's all the fun of being a crazy scientist, with far less stress or risk of world domination.
That's great. Feel free to post skein pics at any time, I love to see that stuff, even if I can't touch it.
