I finally got a decent picture of my new tattoo.

It's a Crafty Tribute.

The banner reads "Crafty Crusader"

I got in while in Austin on vacation for my birthday. It was done by Debi at Mom's Tattoo.

The scissors didn't come out that great, but I can't fly to Texas to get a touch up. Oh well, I'll go see Chris and have him add to it!

On a side note:
I am now plying my Rue Fiber. Love

I harvested some compost last night after work. My lettuce seedlings sprouted. I am going to plant snap peas tonight.

87° today. Record high for Michigan in March.

I may have mentioned this before. I am participating in a Spin-Along over at http://www.etsy.com/shop/storiedyarns. Storiedyarns also has a ravelry group. Stephanie recruited me at spinning one night.

My package came in yesterday. 4 oz of SW Merino in Rue Colorway! Along with the package came some stitch marker goodies and pretty gold powder.

I couldn't wait to start spinning. I am going for a 2ply. I'm using my larger whorl and spinning my default thickness for a single. I've spun an ounce so far. It spins like butter! Oooooooooo

Non Update

I have pictures to post.
Review of my trip
Blah blah blah.... I'll get to it this week.
I need more structure. haha


I move the fence this weekend, I now control everything from the garage back to the privacy fence.
I turned some beds, mix in some poop. Lots of worms. We had a mild winter.

I let Boykin & Freckles "Play" together while i was out in the garden. They will get together again tonight.

The wire snapped on my favorite bra. I am not happy. 
I bought some groceries, jeeeze o petes.... Prices went up.
