Well it has been very busy and eventfull here. DD1 has been in the doctors office 4 times, ER twice and hospitalized once. They have been able to rule out appendicitis but they are now trying to rule out Crohns.
Today we had the earthquake, nothing happend here execpt everyone blaming the other for shaking the table or chair they were sitting in. Lost our phones for a while but we were able to get a hold of family that was closer to the epicenter. Then DD2 went to go check on a neighbors dogs to make sure they hadn't spilled their water and found a guy walking out of their back yard. She asked what he was doing and he ignored her. She went and gave the puppies water and played with them for a while then came home and found the guy pacing our street and in an other neighbors yard. She asked him again what he was doing and he just stared at her until she went into the house. Needless to say we had the police here and checking out the neighborhood and taking statements. We had everyone on our street out and keeping eyes on everyone elses houses.
Now for some fun stuff. Anni who does the Sockamania KAL and live in the United Kingdom has a knitting blog Confessions of a Yarn Addict . I have enjoyed getting to know her this past year through emails. Well anyway I love her yarn and fiber she has been spinning and started looking into where she was ordering it from and found Yarn Goddess who is in the Bay Area of California. Now we are getting closer to home! Looking through her venders I found a name that caught my eye Frekle Face Fibers so I looked her up and found she lives in Leona Valley California....5 minutes from my house!!!! Whooo Hooo. My closest fiber store is about an hour away so now you know I am excited. I go look her up on Raverly and get in touch with her. I love to look and touch before I buy if at all possible and she comes to my house because she says she drives by my area 3 times a week! Come to find out she is a Home Schooling Mamma too!!!. Well needless to say I bought some fiber so here are some pictures



Gotta love the foot of DS2
