Inventory

This past weekend I helped out doing inventory at our local yarn shop. Many hours (not as long as some) un stacking, counting, and then re-stacking gobs of yarn. The picture here is of the mission falls yarn. I'm eventually going to make a scarf out of the deep red color pictured. Thebeautiful green sweater that you can only see half of is a design of Norah Gaughn who I love, but do not have the skills yet to knit anything of her design! The picture does not do her design justice so check out the links. 
   The Truckman and I are painting a room in his house together. A simply awful blue put there by the previous resident is horid! This person was a very un-skilled painter and managed to get dark blue paint on the rug, the ceiling which has grout on it, the wooden door, just everywhere. They also managed to paint over stickers and make it a miserable mess to repare. I beg you, if you are painting a room in the place where you live, either do it right, or let the resident do it! 
So we're slowly transitioning this horriffic scene to a lovely pale green color. I'll put up some before and after shots when it's finished. It would be too awful to only show you the before pictures!
