friends

On Monday, Teabird shown here with her Gidget, a Spinolution Bee Travel Wheel, came to visit. Together we had the most pleasant Monday I have spent in a very long time.

Shadow and Melanie snuggled and head butted each other, I’m not sure who purred louder. He looked around the house for her after she left and cried. I’m amazed he didn’t try to jump into her bag and go home with her. He is smitten with his new friend.

Gidget and I also became fast friends straight away. Why? She let me treadle with just my (not so) big toes. It was effortless and pleasantly different from my normal treadling experience. It was wonderful. I had to stop suddenly because if I didn’t stop then, well, I’d still be in the library spinning away. I think I might be in love.

Squeaky has been given notice (and perhaps a new home where he can be better loved and appreciated) and que sera sera. Maybe not today, maybe not this weekend, but when the time is right, it will happen. He’s been good to me and understands.

My spindles are excited about my renewed interest in spinning and thrilled at the plans I’m making with them.

Thank you for a wonderful friendly Monday Teabird and Gidget. I hope we can get together for tea again soon.

Yes, I have abandoned the “schedule”. Posts probably will be on the days they’ve been. They might be long or short. I might skip a day or two. I’m trying to free it up so it feels less of a burden and more of an opportunity to write about something I enjoy. If I take an extended absence from posting here, I’ll post something. Don’t worry!
