BrownSheep- It's been a while

What to do when you didn't take enough credits and have too much time on your

This is what I had done at 2 this afternoon. It's about 1/3 longer now. I started it last night.
I went with my roommates to Starbucks. It's no wonder they don't have money! I got a simple cider and it cost $4!!! My friends said hers costs about $7... They get Starbucks once or twice a day!

While I read everyone's journals, I never comment. When I saw your knitting I just had to say how good your scarf is starting to look! If you're going to spend money, yarn sure beats a $4 cider!

Last winter I needed something to occupy my time during the long winter nights so I taught myself to knit. I didn't know squat so I went to YouTube and starting looking. Found a person that I could relate to and the rest is history. I find it very therapeutic and relaxing.

Keep up the good work!

I wonder if THAT is why so many kids graduate in serious debt. Actually I don't wonder, I know. They get those big loan checks at the begining of the year and forget it has to last all year. Then they get used to nice things and put the rest of the year on credit cards.

The scarf looks nice- I can't wait to see it finished. Keep up the good work, with your school and being smart about not spending money on silly things like $7 coffee.

Went home this weekend and did chicken "stuff" until the moment I declared I had to leave.
Also got some pics! Sorry for the quality I took them on my phone

Last weekend we moved our older ram and his two ladies back into the main group. The two rams in there had had the ewes for close to three months so we figured they probably had finished the job. We put them in there and watched for a bit to make sure will was well.
Unfortunately today my dad noticed the 10 month old ram lamb we retained laying off by himself. By the time he got back home the poor guy had died. It's a bit too much of a coincidence so we believe he probably got whacked by one of the older horned rams. This was a nice little polled black ram so he didn't stand too much of a chance. I'm really bummed now that we didn't just castrate and butcher which would have meant meat for us and not for the coyotes. We might skin him and process it into a rug since he did have a nice fleece. I'll see if I can't get a picture posted for you guys.
