Wow, I’m just useless around these parts recently, aren’t I? Life has been so busy, though!
I finished my summer class. It involved a ton of textbook reading, which is rarely interesting, and the six week duration of the class meant the pace was VERY fast. I earned 100% on all of my papers, though. I walked away with an A. Not a bad way to kick off going back to school.
Also, to fulfill one of my B31 goals, in the spring I enrolled in an online language class that I purchased through Groupon. I did not like it. At all. I’m glad it wasn’t expensive, although it seems as though I definitely got what I paid for. I gave it a shot, though, so I’m going to consider that goal met – although personally I have every intention of finding another class and continuing on.
My store has done amazingly well, I’ve just been far too busy to do much dyeing lately. I’ve barely touched it in the last month. I have a ton of stock here to dye, and people buy it right up, it’s foolish of me to not make the time for it. I need to get on that this weekend!
I also participated in the Tour De Fleece – which is a giant community spin-a-long (as in hand-spinning fiber into yarn) that happens in conjunction with the Tour De France. It had been a while since I had touched my spinning wheel, so it was nice to have that project to encourage me to use it. I’ll have to post some pictures of the yumminess I created.
And lastly, but certainly not least, I have a new person in my life. I admit that is taking up quite a bit of my time, which I am gladly and willingly giving. There is no weirdness, nothing shady, no complications or bullshit. He gives me absolutely nothing to be doubtful about, and that is a welcome and wonderful feeling – I forgot what that felt like. I won’t say that he makes me happy, because I had already found my happiness again on my own. I’ll just say that he accentuates and enhances my happiness greatly, and I’m feeling happier than ever these days.
Life is good in the land of Kellee. What’s been new with you?



You sound well, I’m glad to hear the happy in your “voice”. Lovely yarns! I peeked through your past sales. You know I have a ton of beautiful angora here that just needs dyeing or weighing into batches, I really need to get on that!
Cindy!!
Thanks, love! Angora… so yummy! You do need to get on that! And I want to see pictures of the finished project!!
Awesome Kellee! I am so proud of you!
I am still working on my number 1 new years resolution, which was to eat healthier & possibly drop a few pounds. It’s slow going and I had to join weight watchers, but thats ok.
Still haven’t taken a sewing class and I can’t figure out my sewing machine but one day I will!
Thanks for the update – I hope you have lots and lots of fun!
Jessica, I just recently got a sewing machine myself, and I have no idea how to use it! I wish we were nearby so that we could take a class together!
Good luck with your resolution, sounds like you’re taking the steps to get there!!
I would love a sewing class buddy! That would be so fun – and motivating!!
I love your line “I can’t say he makes me happy…”. That is such a powerful thing to say! Good for you. So thrilled everything is falling into place with you!! xoxo
Thanks, love! It is totally the truth – I am pretty happy anyway, and he is adding to that a great deal.
I miss you!! <3
What a difference to last year! So wonderful to hear that you are happy and fulfilled. Well done with your studies, your shop – and your man
Oh Cate, you took the words right out of my mouth. I have been totally amazed at how quickly my life has turned around once the things that were drowning me had been removed. I felt like a new person so quickly. Thanks so much. I miss you!!! I’m going to try and “stop by” tomorrow. Am really wishing we lived down the street and could grab a cup of coffee.
