updating has been sporadic at best, lately. Things are happening a mile a minute, and no time to breath! Vacation (all 1.5 days of it) was lovely... got some kayak love in, and my arms got a great workout. Also, no sunburn, as the sun hid from us, and I hid from it, under the umbrella. Most of all, it's warmed us up for some real beach time at labor day.. several days in the outer banks! yay! just a couple weeks to go...

Yarn... slowly starting a big website update, and considering an upgrade to a real cart thingie.. not sure it's worth it yet, but geez, these updates are tedious by hand! Anyhow, in honor of K8 deserting DC, here's a few pretty skeins of hers now up on the handspun page...


Knitting has been happening- have some wee mittens and hats to show, if I remember pictures! and scarves and handpainted goodness.

Running is going well- did 6 miles a couple weeks back! verrrryyyy slowly. last week we ramped down a little- *only* 4 miles! ;) But we did our first real track workout this tuesday, as the weather and schedule was finally agreeable- an hour and a half of alternately running as fast as I can around the track and struggling to not keel over! Heh- they say to run at things like 60% or 90%.. um? anything I do I feel like I am 100% dying! what's up with that? Tomorrow I'm aiming for 5.5-6, but it's gonna be yucky out..  ¶ 18:21
