Hmm, not really, well maybe one of them. I just happen to have red and pink yarns! :lol: And I'm thinking VALENTINE'S on ETSY :lol:

See how the pink is just roving stuffed in there and it looks puffy? Pretty cool.

Morning! :frow

I'm an early bird this morning. HOT FLASHES. Keeping me up all night tossing and turning. Blankets on. Blankets off. And Pick, my schnauzer, decided she wanted to sleep in bed with us last night, too. so on one side a hot smelly schnauzer, and the other side TIM. :rolleyes: I finally got up at 4:45 and decided since my etsy store is so depleted, I better get busy processing some more wool! So I am dyeing Marge's wool (the gorilla) with the periwinkle dye. I think I am going to make some "art batts," which are batts that are made up of different colors and stuff.

I also need to think about making some more felted goodies, because those sold pretty well on etsy. And I can get a lot more for the felted stuff than the wool batts and roving, which goes for pretty cheap. I still have alpaca out in my truck that I never washed. Maybe I should get some of that going today, too!

I didn't tell you guys something strange. After my husband died, I seriously dated this guy Nicholas for about a year. It was a tumultuous relationship. I really loved the guy, but he was so wishy washy about our relationship. I mean one day he wanted to marry me, the next he was online flirting with other woman. It was hard to cut it off, but I did because it was causing me so much grief. Anyways, I was so burned up at him after we broke up I didn't want to ever talk to him. He wrote to me shortly after and told me he had a brain tumor. :( I'm 99% sure that explains why he was so unpredictable in our relationship. Anyways, I wasn't so sympathetic at the time he told me, and didn't really keep up on any kind of correspondence. From what I heard he went through chemo and I thought he had beaten it. Apparently not, because his roommate wrote to me the other day and told me he wasn't doing well and that he was under hospice care. The end of the road. And all I could think of was, THANK GOD I am not with him! Isn't that awful? I couldn't have bared to go through that twice in a row. First my husband, then Nicholas? How cruel would that have been. I hope he goes peacefully and that his family and loved ones do not suffer with their grief. :(

That sucks about the ex. Things happen for a reason...and I hope his time is peaceful.

I say more felted items! You could make felted alpacas with the alpaca fiber! Oh...and those aren't "hot flashes"....they're "POWER SURGES!" I get those too...but sometimes I just get warm...like a fever. (Different that the power surges) Last night I was getting 'warm' and with the back all messed up...tossing was quite PAINFUL! Didn't get much sleep.
