How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…..
I love Amy Boogie this many times around the world

She must have gotten tired of hearing me complain so freaking much felt sorry for me.
If you can’t guess what on earth that is, folx, it is a Brandy spankin new Fricke skein winder.~
Well, in reality that is the counting mechanism. It counts for me! I’m so totally IN AWE of this thing. No more niddy noddy hell for me. Much less room for error all around. I’m also so in AWE of her generosity. And you should be too.
She updated her site late yesterday. So, go! Go, buy! Do it early and often. And, call your credit card company & have them up your limit, as I am (YES!) updating tomorrow. (See, now I have NO excuses about not getting my yarn wound.)
Onto some serious stuff….
I’m sure everyone has heard about James Kim by now. It is a heart wrenching thing.
Susie from Boy Girl Party is putting together a gift basket.
Sometimes I loathe this online stuff… I meet great people, yes… But when something bad happens, I feel so powerless. It isn’t like I can run over with some fresh bread and soup. (One day, the transporter will work… yes.) Sometimes I feel so crazy for loving people I’ve never met in the fleshes… Then I realize, I wouldn’t have it any other way, as I look much more attractive online than I do in 3d.
I love you all, my life is richer for knowing you. Be well.

How the hell can I top that? She rocks. And thank MAUDE you don’t have to use a niddy noddy anymore.
One of these days after all of these years we’ll meet in person.

I was so happy when I heard Kati and the Kim daughters were found in fairly good shape. I’m not sure at what point I concluded that James would not share in that happiness, but certainly well before they found his body. And yet having that confirmed was still a kick in the gut. Why can’t combined serious good will work???

You are so lucky! That is awesome. I want one!
On the Kim family, it is such a sad state. She has to be so proud. This morning they said that he was being tracked by bears on top of it all. He probably led them away from his wife and kids, unknowingly.
Such a heroic story - amazing and sad in the same breath.
Glad things are doing better for you.
Happy hollydays

I LOVE my Fricke. I couldn’t skein without it. Just remember to switch winding arms or you’ll be lopsided.

I’d say the jealousy is just eating me up inside, but I’m too tired, so the jealousy is just giving me a noogie.

I love your article best! I went back and read it and even printed to use in the future. I never tried wacking the yarn, but it makes sense!
Maybe it is just my excuse to start flinging stuff around my bathroom.
