I'm still around...

...in case you were wondering. I know it's been over a YEAR since I last posted. What can I say? I have no real "excuse" - just, you know, life.

In that time, I started a new job. :-) That's a really good thing! I love my job - it's one of those where I like going into work in the morning, and am not itching to leave in the afternoon. Life is too short to have a job that you hate, don't you think? The company I work for works with those affected by alcohol and other drug addiction and/or mental illness. It's very rewarding to see people get their life on track.

The QP will be starting 4th grade (already!) the end of August. This past year, she played softball for the first time. She enjoyed it and was pretty good at it. She plans on playing again next year.

I'm sure there's more to tell you but I can't think of it right now. I don't even have any pictures for you today.

MAKE it a great day!

Hey Angelia,

Have you checked out Tierra Wools? It's an organic wool that's grown from Churro, a semi-rare sheep that the Spaniards brought to the New Mexico back in the day.

THey thought it was extinct but they found a few and brought the flock back up again.

Anyhow, this was a god-send for this extremely poor community in northern NM. They started a community development corporation to find something that would give the locals an economic boost. They found it in their cultural heritage and started marketing the weavings, knittings and the actual wool from this sheep.

Google it...Tierra Wools....Tierra Amerilla, NM.
