		<description>Hi Denise,

My, you are the busy one!  Agree that life (and breathing) is better without wall to wall carpeting.  Somehow never felt the carpet was really clean even after a good scrubbing.

This is way off track but have got to share yesterday&#039;s adventure with you.  Spent the day at The Mannings Weaving School in East Berlin, PA taking a workshop on Spinning in the Old Way.  It was GREAT!!  Terrific way to make sure I&#039;m on the right track with the historic demos I do -- even tho I&#039;m a non-spinner.

Took my drop spindle with my pathetic attempts at using it.  Need to take real lessons on it but in the meantime have given myself &quot;permission&quot; to simply practice and realize that some perfectly fine roving will have to be sacrificed.  Now, to dust off my Walking Wheel and try my hand at that!

Since there was a &quot;show and tell&quot; took along the a-just-a loom I bought from Isela last year.  They were facinated with it.  I was the only one who does (or at least attempts) 18th century knitting so there were a few questions about that.  And, I even knew the answers.

A fun way to spend the day.</description>

		<description>Wow - that&#039;s pretty adventurous.  Looks great.  And the clear breathing is a definite plus.</description>
