Well, let’s see.
Liv got her ears pierced last night,
she’s so happy. She didn’t flinch, she didn’t smile, she didn’t move. Later, as she was walking out with deep purple earlobes, she said that she felt like she was going to pass out. What a trooper. When I got my ears pierced, I passed out cold and hit the floor after the first one. Having to be revived and climb back up on the chair for the second.
I ordered my spinning wheel today. I can hardly believe it.
It should be here in a week. I read once on someone’s blog how they stayed up all night with their new spinning wheel. I need to decide what to spin, so I can have it all ready/prepared such that when my wheel comes, I can to do exactly the same. Next Thursday or Friday night, spin party at my house. All night long.
I don’t know how I’ll manage. After staying out ’til 3am last Friday at the John Mayer concert, I was not even human most of Saturday. In and out of consciousness and naps, not able to be coherent on any level.
But it sounds like fun, so I’m going to try.

Congrats to Liv on your new earrings! It took me forever to get my ears pierced when I was ten. I kept saying, “wait, wait, I’m not ready yet…okay, okay, go ahead–wait! wait, I’m not ready yet!…” I’m sure the lady wanted to just strangle me! 🙂
Beautiful wheel!!! I ‘ve stayed up WAAAAAY too late spinning before, but never all night long. What is the wheel itself made out of?

Oh, congratulations to Liv on getting her ears pierced. I had mine pierced a bit younger than her, and I still remember preening at my father, trying to get him to notice. (He didn’t. My mother finally said something to him.)

I pierced my own ears because my mom wouldn’t let me. I was too dumb to ice it first, but after that I learned, and pierced all my friends ears as well, with ice, a sewing needle, and a potatoe. This was the beginning of my needlecraft…
enjoy the wheel! I hope you can spin flax into gold.

She looks so stoic! Hope she enjoys them now. And I think an all night spin in sounds like fun! Wish I was getting a new fun wheel, I’d join ya 😉

Wow, Liv looks really determined to do it despite any pain! Hope she enjoys having pierced ears. And hope you enjoy your new wheel.
