Woolfest here I come!

w00t! I have found my chequebook! Well, I knew all along where the chequebook for the joint account was, but I was hesitating about taking it when really, it's all about the me, me, me, when it's yarn. But I have found my own account chequebook, and even better? The first paycheck since September has been deposited! so extra w00t! I really think I should spend that hard earned cash (as opposed to the child benefit which has been all that was going in for months!) on some soft squishy lovely yarn.

where am I going to put it, you ask? Well, you know, if we're moving, we'll need some soft stuff to pad out the china and crystal, won't we?

I'm travelling on the scottish fibres bus, along with spinningfishwife and mogiebear  and other people who I will probably know when I get there. i'm ordering a taxi for 7.10 tomorrow morning to get me to the bus. I thought it was a bit much to ask Bil and the boys to gft up and take me!

in other news, I got an email from web of wool yesterday saying that my order had been shipped. i must have placed the order two months ago, and emailed them a month ago asking them when it would arrive. no response. anyway, supposedly it's on its way now. i was planning on using the yarn to make a present for M, my friend's au pair who has been so much help to us this year, both directly, and by looking after Barbara. no time now, as she leaves next week, so I guess I'll make her a bracelet. and the yarn will just *have* to go in the stash. regia silk DK sock yarn. yum.

I made a copy of my most popular on ravelry bracelet for TT's teacher. I hope she likes it.

is anyone else having trouble with links using LJ's rich text editor in firefox 3? it's driving me nuts, keeps changing http links to javascript ones. might as well go back to typing in the html myself if it keeps it up.
