Time, where has it gone?


Here it is August already and the kids are headed back to school. For me this means starting my homeschooling program with my youngest and having less time in my day for all the demands that seem to hit me every morning. Getting organized is the key and not being naturally a organized person this is a challenge for me.



I'll be starting a two year art program this fall as well as spinning, dying, and of course the bunnies. My goal is to produce a high quality lace yarn that you will not be able to get anywhere else but from me. And don't let me forget that there is a husband that needs a little tender loving care as well as a home cooked meal from time to time. Whew, I'm already tired, but this is the best kind of tired there is.




Today I groomed Mystic and cleaned cages before my fiber guild meeting. The bunnies are eating food now and still causing mommy much aggravation. They sneak up on her while she's eating and try to nurse, so she gets a mouthful then runs all over the cage shaking off babies, when the last one falls off she runs back to the food dish and it starts all over. This goes on two or three times a day. So far she has been so gentle with them, but I'm waiting for her to say "I'm done; get them out of my cage." I'm hoping for two more weeks; they will be six weeks old.
