Progress.......

I think that spring is finally here in New York state. After a very long & dreary winter, so cold & windy this year,snowstorm after snowstorm, ice & everything I hate about winter & cold, spring is finally on the horizon!
I am happy to say that I am almost done with clue 1 of Mystic Roses KAL, it looks good although I see a few "boo-boos" I made on the one side. When I am done with clue 1 I will post a photo, my camera battery is in need of a charge & I don't remember where the charger is.
I am awaiting some yarn from WEBS for the Nightsong pattern shawl KAL on Ravelry. I ordered some Ranco Multi in the colorway Peacock (304) for this. It is a fingering weight yarn & should make a nice shawl.
DH & I made the decision to send the girls to public school next year, it was one we really did not want to make, but $$$ is a big factor. Since I am returning to school next year & the tuition for their school is about $4000 & mine is almost $5000, it kind of came down to this. Our public school is a magnet school has a lot to offer, we just wanted them to have the more Christian education than most kids get these days. We plan on moving after I am done with school, so they would be changing school anyway.........it was a difficult one to make.
I recently made an order with handpaintedyarn.com. I paid on April 2nd & still did not have it on the 20th. I emailed them on the 15th & according to the packing slip, that is when the order was packed. The yarn is lovely though. I get annoyed when I send emails & noone responds, especially when it comes to things I purchase. Oh, well, I guess they are done with my business.
