bernie doesn't know it yet

but i got to go pick up a duck on saturday

she will be falstaff's new wife, as it is been a year almost since we lost my beloved serafina,
and i need outcrossing

so we get a duck

she will stay with falstaff

the girls will be the girls

and all will be happy in our little feathered world

my back is still bad,
bad enough that i did NOTHING today
i stoked the stove a bit
that was a nightmare of pain
took tylanol and aspirins
and laid down a lot

i did get about two square inches more done on the next drawing the series 'and off we go down the hill'

(remember when the duckies were cold and wanted hot cocoa?.....that one)

i renewed bernie's license online ( we go for the picture id saturday)
called to find out the delivery time for his new glasses
and hung the fiber up to dry
oh and put a bit more in......this time yellow
but he'll have to put the container in the oven for me to set the dye
i can't lift it

he is also going to put full fresh water buckets out tonight
so that in the morning
i can just put the girls and falstaff out

i hope my back clears up soon
as i have pens to clean and beans to plant
and seedlings to move on

not to mention this fiber to spin

who lives close to me that has a drum carder?
i could use putting this stuff through it a few passes

and i would like to add some copper colored angelina too

the other big news at least to me
was i was able to pay the mortgage ONLINE
i have been waiting for that bank to get it together so i could do that for over 3 years
i am so excited
saved me a trip to town when i really am not up to it
that also means bad weather doesn't exhist for that as well!!!!

but it also means i don't go up to ac moore either as i would do the mortgage and go to ac moore since they are only two blocks apart
but think of all the money i will save
huh?

ok

other then that i been resting a LOT
for me i have been actually resembling a slug
doing NOTHING
i tossed me a salad for lunch
store boughten greens as mine aren't ready for harvest yet
but at least it had greens

i did check on my lettuces
and there are wonderful red splashed seedling and curly seedlings
and some spinach out there
i am so excited
i love my mixed greens

i am going to see if bernie can put the patio furniture up on the deck this weekend
we'll see

ok i am going to have this post tomorrow morning
but it's really tonight the 9th
