WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO You might think, based on the ecstatic tone of today's title, that I finally finished the ends of Menagerie. Not quite- even with 289 for the other animals and 113 SO FAR for the giraffe, I am very much not finished yet. I did make some progress last night while getting in touch with my "inner idiot" (aka watching American Idol), but no, my excitement is due to a very different reason.
A few days ago, following the advice of Wendy, I ordered yarn for my dad's vest directly from JAMIESON & SMITH SHETLAND WOOL BROKERS LTD. I had to order via email, splitting my credit card information up (I'll be watching my account closely this month!), and today I received word that they had shipped my order yesterday, with a total of 17.98 pounds sterling. Whatever that means! So I checked my credit card statement online, and discovered that the total charged was $29.15. FOR 16 SKEINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am doing the happy dance around my office. Now to wait until it shows up in the mail.....
The Latin phrase for today:
perpetuum mobile
"perpetual motion"
