My darlings! I started a post yesterday, but was stymied by our computer system. Did you miss me?

Daughter #2 got a laptop during the summer. She is in love with her laptop. She uses it everyday and is working on her second novel. She also goes to music sites, does some lame thing called Neo-pets and all kinds of other things.

She is single-handedly bringing our computers to their kness — I realize that a larger message in there, but I don’t want to think about it! My sweet, computer savvy Boar is making everything right, but these things take time.

Without having the computer to take up so much of my time (and it is amazing how much time I spend reading blogs! I tell myself it’s educational.) I got quite a lot done.

Here are some pics of the fruits of my loom — (I know it’s not a loom, but it made me giggle to say it!). If you look closely you will see that I still need to work on maintaining an even draw. You will also see that I used the Boar’s wrench set to weight the skeins …. I thought I would hear about that one, but he didn’t seem to have a problem with it. He usually gets a tad cranky when I use his tools.

I am thinking about making some felted slippers alá Knitty with this stuff …..
