Some updates.

Andy is out of the hospital and doing well.

Sadie is still being a problem

New computer was returned. I have ordered a new new one.

Today’s story.

Traveling cross country with my family followed a set routine. The time table was precise. The division of labor was clear. Expectations were known.

Some people just didn’t get it. I don’t know why.

What do you think?

I am having computer problems with my brand new Gateway laptop. It keeps losing its drivers. I have in fact written this blog entry twice. It keeps disconnecting me from the internet mid-sentence. Annoying.

Computer support is denying there is an issue with their computer and drivers. Just how often do you have to install device drivers?

So instead of me wasting your time listening to me moan and groan, I play the Neel sisters’ stories I recorded at the Maryland Sheep and Wool festivals.

You can contact Lara at Math4Knitters. I am sure she will forward messages to her sister, Lisa.

I was away from home in training this week. I really just wanted to be home.

Getting home was harder than it should have been.

I would love to know what you think. Please leave me a comment or e-mail or give me a call.

I answer some questions from Shawn concerning linen and linseed oil.

Please, indulge me. It has been a rough week. I talk about my best boss ever. He is going through a rough time.

I would love to hear from you.
