No, I have not become a barista 🙂  My son is going to school 1/2 an hour from our house and he is only ther for 2 1/2 hours, so it doesn’t make sense for me to drive home just to turn around and drive back into town.  I was a little overwhelmed with having to spend 2 1/2 hours in town doing something everyday!!!  I am quite the homebody and I enjoy my flexible schedule – I realize now that I have taken that for granted. 

I have a long list of felted items that I need to work on and my mom suggested I take my felting to Starbucks.  This made me laugh at first because I am not a coffee drinker and the idea of needle felting in a coffee shop just seemed silly. 

It took some gumption to pull my felting stuff out of my bag and start needle felting on Monday, but now I have become quite comfortable there.  The atmosphere is pleasant and they have some wonderful breakfast items.  The blueberry oat bars are awesome!!!  Here is a recipe for blueberry oat bars that the creator claims to be just as good, if not better.  I will have to make some this weekend.

I have accomplished a LOT with my block of undistracted time…

Monday

Thursday

and today I helped at my son’s school.  Along with checking stuff off my to do list, I am also educating people about wool and felting!  Several people have been quite intrigued with the process.

I am looking forward to a few days at home 🙂
