Happy Boxing Bulldog Day!


Isn't he adoraBULL? That's my Christmas gift from Debbie, my dear friend who gives me the bulldog ornaments. This little fellow now sits outside our front door to greet visitors.

Now that Christmas is past, I can reveal a recent FO.

I started this for my mom last January, and then stalled out when faced with tacking down the "snail" and blocking it. Up against a Christmas deadline, I finally "just did it." My mom sent me a cute photo of herself modeling it, but I don't know how to get it off my phone and into my computer!

As of today, ALL my fleeces are reserved except for Bramble's, and hers would be if I thought it was marketable. (She was in the rise last spring at shearing, and I never got around to trimming her.) Almost makes me wish I had bred my ewes just to have more fleeces to sell . . . almost. (I still only have so much room for sheep.) It does take the sting out of not selling all the stock I've advertised, though!

That's it for now from . . .

    Well if you get bored I know where there is a lot of roving .... wool is easier and less stressfull on the animals to ship.

    It's a mini-Dozer! How cute is that! I like the hat, too...

    Can you e-mail from your phone? If so, attach the picture of your mom to an e-mail that you are sending yourself. Then go to your computer, open your e-mail and download from there... Love the doggie!

      No, I have an old flip phone, with no plans to upgrade to a "smart phone." Can't afford the extra data plan costs!

      I'll see if I can figure out how to do that, Sara. (I rarely text and have never sent a photo as we don't have texting on our plan.)
