Wooly Bad
Jul 30th 2008Rural WriterLife on the Farm
Things are wooly bad around here.
Why do I say that? Well, there are bags of wool all over the house right now. I had them stored in the basement, but then I made the mistake of putting an ad for the fleeces at a greatly reduced price on an elist. I just wanted to clear a few out of the way.
Over 45 inquiries later, and I’ve probably got more requests than I’ve got wool.
At first I figured I’d just work on it whenever I had some extra time, and sent out an email telling people it would take a while before I got through all of the wool, and please be patient, I’ll get to them as quickly as I can.
But then I realized that wasn’t going to get it. The wool gets everywhere, and it’s too big a hassle to clean it up every time I get a fleece ready. My living room and den have been taken over and I can’t stand the mess or the smell… time to finish this up.
So tomorrow The Farmer and I are going to have a Wool Work Day. I hope we can get through all the bags of wool, then I can clean up most of the mess and start packing up orders.
That’s going to take a wooly long time. (I know, I’m really baaaaaad.)
