I want to sleep


Meet my new toy, Lady Maple is the new name of my Lendrum DT spinning wheel. I received her from
Sun Bench Fibres
two weeks ago, sadly I have been so busy that we still aren't all that acquainted yet. I did play with the wheel for a while when we received it but my crazy new "work" schedule is killing me, I got a cold too and I just passed these last two days off in bed. I hope to find time soon especially since I have fiber waiting to be spun. :)

My internship is really fun, the people I am with are so generous in advice and tips to make it easier for me to work. I don't think I am in the way of anyone's work, they even seem to go out of there way so I can learn to most I can in two weeks. It's been great not having to study in the evenings too, a nice break from school. I fear that I will miss the guys a lot once my internship is done, school will feel odd. I won't have to go downtown everyday and I really like the extra subway commute in the morning, gives me more time to wake up. LOL! I was working in a mall and could shop, eat, relax, knit on my lunch break, I can even pop outside for fresh air. Of course I can't do all of that in 30 minutes but I am getting used to the shorter lunch breaks, at school we have an hour so that's been a big change. Thing is I am always eager to go back to the laboratory, put on the lab coat, wear the awful oversized security glasses and get back to learning. :) The vibe of the team is good, we listen to music, talk about anything and everything and shoot! I am SO going to miss them.

At least I have a week left of learning. :)
hugs,

Wake up. You have no excuse. You have the wheel of my dreams, so get spinning, lady... Seriously, feel better, sweetiepie :-) Posted by: Lee Ann at September 5, 2005 10:52 PM
Very nice spinning wheel! Are you also going to knit naughty bunnies with your handspun yarn? 'Coz apparently, that's what one must do... ;-) I hope you feel better soon - having a cold during summer is not cool (yes, it is still summer - I am in denial! ;-) Posted by: Kajin at September 6, 2005 07:11 AM
