Today, Sunday, was the last day to attend the Black Sheep Gathering. And so I went.
I even encountered the SIL and her hubby, checking out the Romney sheep. They were surprised I was there. I’m very sensitive. I always have the impression that these, otherwise wonderful people would always seem to be shocked I can do things or go to places they go too. Or that I can read books. Or that I’m educated like everyone else. Or that I can argue and hold my ground with what I know, be it religion, politics, rice, etc. Just not finances (of course, they do not know that) and wine or beer.
Anyhoot, I have every right to be there. Yarn is my passion! (Aries is my birth sign, of all things!) I was mildly surprised they were even remotely interested in sheep. At one point, the SIL was trying to impress upon me her knowledge of sheep. Until I told her more than she could take or already know. ‘If you do not know your stuff, don’t open your mouth’, is what I’d like to tell her.
Boy, was I cranky today! But prior to (and after) my encounter with the SIL and the hubby, I was giddy to the point of being like a child discovering a new candy store.
Check these photos out.
Hey, you’re the same person who took my foto last year!
Look at that huge pair of scissors!
Black-faced lammies for sale! I didn’t buy any. Darn!
Spinning Wheels a-plenty!
Colorful wares!
What! You want my picture?!
I will post more photos in a day or two. And to show you what I bought. Plus an interview with someone who owns 80 alpacas.
Who is SIL? You aren’t talking about SILS & CROFT are you? HAHAHAHAHA!
Those little stuffies are really cute. You should have bought at least one to add to the collection. That would have made the village complete.
So when are you going to show what you bought? Any new projects? I am forever stuck with my crochet.
I should really kick my **** and get going with my projects.
Teehtah – please make me one small scarf!
