Folding Trees/Newspaper Yarn Traffic

I noticed I've been getting some traffic from over at Folding Trees, where I commented about newspaper yarn. In case that's what you're looking for I am actually experimenting with that now, it's about the only thing I've had to do w/yarn since school started. I have some on my drop spindle now, but I was having problems taking it off, getting the right spin, etc, so I'm still experimenting. I'll be sure and post some pictures and information about it as soon as I get back from my trip and play with it more! Which should be by next Friday at the latest! *adds to iCal* If you want me to keep you updated please feel free to add a comment with UPDATE in it and I'll make sure to personally let you know what I learn as I go!

Oh and if you didn't come here from Folding Trees be sure and check them out! Awesome Paper Craft site, one of the best I've ever seen! They update frequently too! That's really hard to find in a paper blog!

Happy Turkey Day!

Well here we are! Thanksgiving! And I find many things to be thankful for, even if this is probably the busiest one ever for me. What are you thankful for? Here's a small list of what I'm most grateful about!

• I have a new job that doesn't suck to bad, and pays well.
• I'm getting A's!
• No Science final.
• I have a roof over my head.
• I have a nice car that runs.
• My mom is cooking a delicious dinner as I type (which I'm going to go help with)
• I have a ton of yarn to use!
• I have a Mac as my primary computer as opposed to a Windows OS machine!
• Did I mention food?
• My family and true friends, but that's a given most of the time!
• Abnormally warm weather today in the 70's (F)
• Aforementioned weather to make putting up the Christmas lights comfy!
• CHRISTMAS LIGHTS! I have a billion! (not really, but I think I'll count this year!)

Of course for most people, no matter how happy and thankful you are, there are always a few things you're less thankful for, and I am one of those people!

• My job is 30 hours a week PLUS school....
• I'm finishing my very last Jones Halloween Limited Edition Candy Corn Soda. (How fitting that it was on a holiday? Totally unplanned.)
• I have less time to crochet anymore....
• Tons of last minute school projects
• It never snows in Florida anymore....
• That my mom went "Veggie" and so we don't get a Turkey but instead an organic, free range, non-genetically-hormonally-antibody-altered Chicken, because she missed out on getting the same thing in a Turkey. 

I think I'm going to take today and FINISH a crochet project. Gryffy can wait. I have a lamb that has been wandering around here without legs and a tail, well I guess not wandering because it has no legs, but still, you get the idea! 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
