tennessee

wow, this has been such a great trip! sebs and i have gone on tons of walks in the woods...being on 130 acres does have it benefits! sebastian has had a kind of difficult time dealing with the affection of all 5 dogs...they rarely leave him alone (doggie slobber kisses...) and will stay very close to us when we are out and about on the farm. they've knocked him over i dont know how many times, and often he ends up reaching up for me to pick him up.
we havent made it to memphis yet, but are planning on going this friday. i am really excited to see the stax museum and will hopefully be able to talk my mom into making a pit stop at yarniverse. i have been knitting up a storm! i have gone through literally15 skeins of yarn (at least!) since i've been here..my wrists are becoming sore, but i am loving every minute of it. i know all of the gifts will be appreciated...
i have also been able to listen to some of the great cds i have bought over the past couple of years and had never gotten around to really listening to them; including but not limited to: the fiery furnaces first record, pj harvey's uh huh her, nick cave's latest double cd set, and a lot of others...i am really impressed with them, and am sooo happy to have finally, truly given them a spin.
well, its time to work on some of my own songs...xo to family and friends whom i dearly miss.
