I am afraid I have lost my voice.. If you find it laying around any where, let me know.

Just a short non-show to give you some updates.

Damsel is over 7 lbs. Vet was real thrilled with her weight gain and how she is looking except for the tail. It still looks groody. We will have to try a sulfur treatment on it to try to clear it up. Not looking forward to that lovely smell.

Sheep got sheared. I tried to get another story from Scott but he had a date with his girlfriend. I understand priorities. He said maybe next year. He did tell me his parents found the episode and gave him a hard time about telling stories instead of doing his job.

Maryland Sheep and Wool festival is right around the corner. I would love to get together with you. I want to arrange a get-together time for Saturday late afternoon. When will work for you?

Let me know.

Today, I talk about goats.

1. How to tell a goat from a sheep.
2. Different uses of goats: meat, milk, and fiber.
3. Fiber goats - Angora and cashmere.

I have no idea how to clean or process cashmere.  If you do, please let me know.

When I am traveling, I always visit the local yarn stores.  Usually I enjoy visiting these places.  I have meet many wonderful people and found many unique items.  However, there are somethings about yarnstores that I don’t like.  I share my complaints with you today.

What is your experiences?

I think the title says it all.

I am in AZ and don’t have time to deal with it.

One more strike is all she has left.

What do you think?

I start with some new where I complain about Wayne being sick, Damsel being sick, me being sick and trying to get ready to go out of town.

Since I will be gone next weekend, there may not be a show next week.

My sister sent me some pictures from the girl scout trip to the zoo in the Philippians. Looking at these pictures got me thinking about several things that I share with you.

Today I talk about angora rabbits including:

• little history,
• different types,
• ways of removing wool
• considerations in spinning and using the fiber.

Do you see some angora in your future?  Did I leave anything out?

This week has been rough. Damsel is in heat. She is waking us up every couple of hours with her crying. It is a hard sound to ignore.

It got me thinking about sex ed. It seems my experiences are different than other peoples experience. I share some stories about sex education.

Let me know what you think.

Update on Damsel.

She went to the vet and got she last shots and de-wormed.

She is doing very well. We are slowly getting her introduced to the rest of the family.

Today I tell a story about my experience in the girl scouts.

What do you think? Where they are drugs or what?
