A Year of Firsts


2012 has been a year of firsts for me. 
  • First blog. 
  • First time Ian, my son, went to school. 
  • First time selling something online in my Etsy store. 
  • First time really keeping track of how and when I finish my UFO’s (UnFinished Objects).
  • First time teaching spinning to a private student.
  • First time (in many years) going to a fiber arts awards ceremony.
  • First time processing wool in the grease (freshly sheared) - from washing to combing to spinning.

The first three quarters of the year passed very slowly. Then September came and there has been a nonstop flurry of activities. I write this last post of 2012 to remind myself that life is not a competition. I managed to write 35 out of 52 intended posts. Pretty good for a busy mom!

I also finished quite a number of projects. Even started a few new ones that got finished. 20-some projects have been completed this year. Plus all the little things like making product for my store that I didn’t include in the count.

I’m pleased to have shared this year with you. I hope you have enjoyed my irregular postings.

I wish good things and happy tidings to you in 2013.
