I am pretty excited to have found a master spinner (certificate from handweavers guild of America) be locally here in Torrance. To make things even more exciting, she offers 'classes' on Thursday nights. They are just fiber get togethers where they learn all sorts of fiber art related stuff from knitting, to weaving and everything else in between. It is free. It also blows my mind that of the millions of people who live here there are only 20 or so people who teach fiber crafts in southern California (as in spinning and weaving that is, there are plenty of places that teach knitting and crocheting). It reiterates how 'weird' I am. Hah. I have been spinning on my drop spindle this past week because it seems that I packed away all my bobbins in with the house hold goods that got shipped. I am pretty bummed out about that but my spindle is finally getting some love. I also tried some Andean plying which was successful the first time around. It's an amazing method of plying once you get the hang of it.
as for the job situation, Paul is kind of getting discouraged as he thought he would at least hear from some people by now, but there are still many jobs that he is qualified to apply for. I am thinking he is kind of over thinking as well, since technically he isn't even out of the military till the 28th. please send us job vibes~
