The Ashford Traveller is on its way!

I had to take a personal day off from work to get things sorted out over at the other house. I also have to take off next Tuesday. You have no idea how boring it is to sit in an empty house waiting for people to do their jobs. Which is precisely how I spent my morning over at the other house! I walked out the door and left my book and my spindle and everything else. So after a day of dealing with electricians and plumbers, I am back at home.

On Tuesday, I have to wait for the chimney sweep, the heating & cooling guys, and the termite inspector. I still have not heard back from my insurance or the one roofer I found willing to come take a look at it before next year. Oh well, that is the way things work out some times.

But the good news is, when I did finally make it home, there was a message from Melissa. She was at the UPS store and my wheel is on its way to Jackson! The expected delivery time is Monday, November 28. I am so excited. Oh, and there was a package too! I got a new Briar Rose from Jeanne @ Simple Market Farms. So I had some immediate gratification and something to look forward to in ten days!

Oh and here is the yarn I spun and plied last weekend on the guild's Ashford Traditional.

wow. That really turned out beautifully. I'm so glad you Navajo plied it -- was a real treat seeing that done. Seems like if the buyers are really in a crunch to get in the house there should be some resolution given the roofing situation in this area!
