Things have not improved...or have they?

I know that many of you don't know me all that well. so here go with another bitch session- bear with me-

My assistant left left just about 6 weeks ago, and it is a wonderful thing. I refrained from complaining in case she ever stumbled across my blog, but now really- she could barely use email, and I think she was going to find my blog?

Anyway, she was somewhat useless and at times worse then useless-the stories I have heard from others since she left could make your hair curl. So, I am assistanceless- and working 6 day weeks until we hire someone. This is the not improved part. I haven't seen my kids for more than 1/2 an hour all week, and I'm at work till 9 tonight and in a 8 am tomorrow. Now if I was getting paid for all of this that would make a tidy vacation fund, but I'm salary- so no dice there. Now that being said, I know that the powers within my employer know what I'm doing and I have always been rewarded for hard work in the past (and rewarded well). But today I'm tired and cranky.

Onto other news- Good Karma Spinning Co. has asked me to update thier web address to http://www.karmayarn.com/. This is the company that bought our mill equipment.

Wool n Word is now carrying Ancient Threads Yarn in the shop- thank you Stephanie!

Kathy M from PA sent me some pictures of her crocheted raglan cardigan - out of Ancient Threads Yarn- it is really pretty and it is nice to know other have time to create even if I don't.
