Needed to go into town today to get paint and supplies, drop off trash and recyclables, and check the mail. Since there are workers at the house we also decided to have lunch out for the sake of a little sanity (can’t wait to get our kitchen back). We opened the mail while we were waiting for our food and discovered a delightful gift from Matt, Emily, and Cathy. These are natural dyed wool yarns.
