Can't find the camera & addicted to facebook.

I know I've promised you all photos of what I have been doing lately, but I just can't find the darn camera at the moment.  It's a pity really, because I have finished spinning and plying a skein of the fleece that Pam gave me, and it has worked out quite well, although still a bit greasy.  I wanted to show it off.   Ah well, I'm sure once I finally start to tidy the house I'll find it, so you'll just have to wait.  Sorry. 

The other thing that has been taking up my time lately (other than it being school holidays) is FaceBook.  Yes, I think I can safely say that I am officially addicted.   For those of you who may read this blog but don't know too much more about the internet, Facebook is a site (kind of like MySpace but better) that you can have your own webpage.   On your webpage you can have photos; your profile listing, well, almost anything; virtual growing plants, virtual aquariums and gardens and heaps more.  If some of your friends are on facebook too, you can have their photos pictured under your Friends space with links to their pages, and you can send them all kinds of virtual things as well as chat to them.  You can have a virtual pet that you feed and pat, as well as being able to feed and pat your friends pets if they have them.   It is so cool!   I have found friends that are on facebook that I haven't seen for years.  It has been great to catch up with them.  

Anyway, for those of you who are already on facebook and who read this blog (which is most of you), I'll stop rambling about it now, because you already know.   

What have i been doing craft-wise?? Well, I have knitted and felted a small rectangular bag for my niece's birthday, I have started on another French market bag - a smaller one this time, and I have been spinning both the fleece that Pam gave me, as well as some lovely brown stuff I am going to knit into something for my mother for christmas.   Last week I showed my mum around Fibrecraft House (where our group meets) and the emporium.  The only fiber she saw that she said "ooh, that's nice" was the brown stuff. So, I thought "ok, that's what you are getting."  Makes it easy for me.  

Well, that's really it from me today.  Got things to do with the boys back at work and school.  Yeay, some time to myself! 

Love peace and joy
