Rantings of a Rabid Knitter

This week story involves the creepy crawly things. If you have issues with bug, you may want to sit this one out. I talk to things. All sorts of things. Wayne thinks I am nuts. Maybe I am, but I am not changing. What do you think? Let me know. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks. Carry approx. 11 minutes

I am sorry for being late with this weeks show.  I was in a very bad mood yesterday with a headache and didn’t want to subject you to that. Since I am still a little headachy, I am taking a short cut and sharing a story I recorded while I was in SA earlier in the year. I hope you enjoy. I am happy to forward any comments you might have on to Cat. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

Although this should be a fiber episode, I feel compelled to share a different story with you. I heard this story this weekend and it touched me in a way that is hard to explain. If you think you can help, these little guys contact me and I will get you in contact with Bonnie. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: AutumnBreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I have a voice again that sounds like me… Many thanks to Misty, Mur and Wayne. I talk about Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival. LLamalady, Bunny Squirrel, and Nina were good enough to take time out of their festival to talk with me. I had a great time. There was some bad news. Things maybe changing in the future. A small rant about a certain ENT doctor. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

My voice has gotten worse. I did see the Dr. and am on meds. I am hoping that this will take care of it. Misty of Geek Farm Life is kind enough to help me out this week. Wayne does the intro and the announcements for me. Big thanks to both. Please give Misty some love. If you want to contact me there are many different options. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I am afraid I have lost my voice.. If you find it laying around any where, let me know. Just a short non-show to give you some updates. Damsel is over 7 lbs. Vet was real thrilled with her weight gain and how she is looking except for the tail. It still looks groody. We will have to try a sulfur treatment on it to try to clear it up. Not looking forward to that lovely smell. Sheep got sheared. I tried to get another story from Scott but he had a date with his girlfriend. I understand priorities. He said maybe next year. He did tell me his parents found the episode and gave him a hard time about telling stories instead of doing his job. Maryland Sheep and Wool festival is right around the corner. I would love to get together with you. I want to arrange a get-together time for Saturday late afternoon. When will work for you? Let me know. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks. Carry approx. 4 minutes

I start with some new where I complain about Wayne being sick, Damsel being sick, me being sick and trying to get ready to go out of town. Since I will be gone next weekend, there may not be a show next week. My sister sent me some pictures from the girl scout trip to the zoo in the Philippians. Looking at these pictures got me thinking about several things that I share with you. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.
