Mornin Bridge,
been up for a while now and was going back and forth with DH over looking at this goat today. It'll be over 200 miles round trip, and so much other stuff...then it led to us talking about the sheepies coming tomorrow..... which led to going on etsy then to your journal to show DH what you do. He is impressed and kept saying..."I just want to touch them, what do they feel like, how does she make them, and a bunch of other questions.
He is pretty sure/set we should at least go look at the buck, I think he really wants this guy. This is all extremely unusual for him. I decided I'm not going but my DD and Straw will go to assess. Sending all my checklist stuff with Straw. ...and yeah, I'll owe em big I may just make him a dea.. we can co-own the buck
Anyway the whole point of this was to tell you now my DH is getting a better picture of the purpose of the sheep! ...and a wheel, and the spinning classes! Pretty cool eh?
I can't wait to see a pic of the sheep blankies! you had me crackin up...and I mean really laughing out loud!
Lambies tomorrow!!

I can't wait until tomorrow Southern! I hope everything goes well and the sheep feel good when they get there. 
I made it to the farmer's market this morning and you and DD and DH should see that! Our County Sheep Producer's Association puts on a really great Wool Shop. The sheep producers sell all kinds of stuff. Some of them have these beautiful throws and blankets made from their wool. Others sell beautiful pelts. One lady had wool wreaths that she had made. They were I guess styrofoam that was wrapped in yarn, then had the curly cotswold locks on them. I bought one! Then there were hand knit headbands and hats. Lots of people have their wool made into socks. Just all kinds of things and everybody sold a little bit of everything today.
The Jacobs also have horns, so they can be made into buttons or knife handles, etc. There are many possibilities with sheep! Plus they are sooo cute and soft
Not to mention the meat aspect of it.
I sold 4 ornaments, the chickens mostly! So it was a fun day and I'm excited about this coming year for this association.

This is completely off the sheep topic, but the weirdest thing happened to me today and it is giving me the heebie jeebies! 
I was at the outlet stores buying Xmas presents. I went up to the checkout counter and grabbed some cash out of my purse without even looking. The cashier said it was $63.00 even. I looked at my money in my hand and I was holding exactly $63.00!
But wait. It gets weirder.
So we went out to dinner and we got the bill. SIXTY THREE DOLLARS AND SIXTY THREE CENTS! $63.63 $63.63
So of course, you know what I did. Ran right to the 7-11 which was next door and bought 2 Pick 4 lottery tickets. I NEVER buy lottery tickets, but this was just too weird to ignore.
So tonight I will find out if 6363 will be my lucky number
:bun

I did NOT win the lottery, in case you were wondering! 
I found one of our pheasants dead this morning. It was halfway through the electricoweb fence. The fence was bent over. I wonder if it was being dragged through by a predator, or if it was just electrified.
Funny how the chickens come and go through that fence all the time, and the pheasants usually do too. Bummer
