Calmed Down

Called the Community College yesterday as had no response to my email. They were very apologetic and I went down to get my refund for the Spinning Class. I have put my name down for next term. By all reports the college are usually very good with informing people about cancellations etc, so I will let it go. Have put the word out on Ravelry so maybe we will get some more numbers next term for the class to go ahead.

Sleepy Bears Progress



Lace Sock Progress (if you can call it That)- gone down a couple of sizes in needles and uped the stitches, third time lucky. Just using 100% wool purchased for $1.00 a ball in a discount shop.



Dugald is finally sleeping outside with the other dogs , so back to getting a full nights sleep.

Spinning Class

Well I went to enrol last Wednesday at Spinning Class at the local Community college, no probs. Been getting very excited about the propsect, it was s fairly big decision as it's a 70km round trip and I can't really afford it. But have been meaning to get Mum to try and teach for 12 mths and it hasn't happened. I feel like I owe it to Mandie at Ewe Give Me the Knits as she sent me the part to fix the wheel for free. Only a few dollars, but not the point. So I rocked up tonight "sorry we don't have one of those classes". Not the gentleman at school's fault at all. So feeling very P@#@#D and have sent a letter to the Principal of the college requesting a full refund & asking for compensation for my wasted trip.

Did start some lacy socks, but as per usual had about 3 false starts. I will do them. But now working on a baby sampler cross stitch for my friend's new baby. Little Lauren arrived on the 3rd Feb. The blanket is on hold because she got so many wraps at the baby shower, I figure I'll have to make it bed size to be of use.
